Congratulations to Sarah Harding of Spaces Ink Design, winner of an NKBA Silver Bathroom Design Award 2026 for A Suite Sanctuary, a project we were proud to supply.
The brief was simple: a warm, grounding retreat with room for two. And one request, keep the bath, even though it never gets used.
So instead of hiding it, Sarah set the freestanding bath in an open wet-space shower, raised on a stage of mossy-green gloss tiles that nod to the NZ bush. An oak vanity grounds the room, paired with basins and Pan S tapware, Italian-made and built to last.
The bath that was once overlooked is now the heart of the ensuite.
