The client was looking to have shutters acting as a door for the cubbyhole, which would obviously look far better and create a great look in this modern bathroom. With the shutters fitted and closed, items can be kept in the storage area out of view and keep the bathroom interior looking great at all times.
We created a stylish cupboard using custom sized shutters and the use of a deep bullnose z frame fitted to the front of the recess, which also hides any uneven gaps on the recess tiling for the shutters to fit perfectly into.
The shutters themselves were made from out Sumatra Range of White Teak which is natural water resistant so perfect for areas such as bathrooms and wet rooms where there is contact with moisture. These shutters will not be coming into direct contact with water so the white teak is a great option!
We finished the shutters in silk white with nickel plated hinges, thick 76mm louvres and a hidden tilt rod option, which allows for the louvres to still be adjusted via touch. Yes… even though these shutters are for a cubbyhole the louvres still open and close as they would on a window! We think this is a nice option for keeping partial view into the storage area.
