Final Winner

Here is what the winner, Geraldine Papandrea, had to say about her bathroom.
What does your bathroom mean to you?
Our bathroom is not just a place for daily ritual, but also a place for rest and relaxation.
Who uses this bathroom?
This bathroom is the ensuite to the master bedroom and is used by my husband, Michael, and I. However our two lovely children, Ella and Max, love using the bathtub occasionally for a bit of fun!
Where did you get your inspiration?
The bathroom is a collaboration of ideas from Interior Designer Lisa Capezio, Architect Steven Cetrtek, Michael and I. Keeping in with the clean and simple lines of the house’s architecture, we wanted to create a space that was unique but inviting, using finishes of natural stone and wood, which are used extensively in other parts of the house.
What do you like about the open plan style bathroom?
The open bathroom is easily accessed by the bedroom and gives the feeling of space and openness. The bathroom has been carefully designed so that while there is a sense of openness, there is also demarcation between the two spaces. This was achieved by using a raised platform and lower ceiling for the bathroom. There is also a large concealed sliding door that can be used if desired. Privacy has also been considered by use of blinds and cleverly concealing the shower and toilet behind a wall of marble.
What is your favourite part of your bathroom?
The bathtub, which boldly overlooks the pool, is almost like a sculptural piece that can be seen from most parts of the house.
Tell us about your product selection. Why did you choose these products?
We discovered the beautiful Minosa Kava basin and Milana bench in a magazine and travelled to Sydney to view them. We were referred to Reece bathroom life™ in Surry Hills where we selected the toilet, bidet, outlets and mixers, which follow the same gentle curves of the Kava basin and the Napoli bathtub beautifully.
Where did you get the idea to have the bathroom in the bedroom?
The open bathroom concept was made attractive to us after holidaying on tropical Hamilton Island with friends at their spectacular home, which features an open ensuite to the main bedroom. The integration of our bathroom with our bedroom and pool makes us feel like we are on holiday every day!
A huge congratulations to Geraldine & Michael Papandrea of Forrest, ACT, who are the overall winners of the Reece Your bathroom. Your life. Competition.They receive $15,000 for their efforts.
We’re sure you’ll agree that this bathroom is a most deserving winner.
Geraldine said, ‘We were inspired by holidays to North Queensland. We wanted to create an integrated bathroom and bedroom that felt like a tropical retreat.’ It was this unique design approach that ultimately tipped the judges decision in their favour.
Geraldine’s sister, Interior Designer, Lisa Capezio, was given the task of turning the vision into reality.
They have certainly succeeded with a bathtub that overlooks a resort style pool and the shower and toilet neatly concealed behind a wall of solid marble. The result is a beautifully inviting sanctuary defined by simple lines and high quality fittings. It’s fair to say that bathrooms don’t get much better than this.'
