Bathrooms naturally lend themselves to having a beachy theme, but it’s hard to get that authentic seaside charm. Luckily our Creative designer Lizzi has been busy pulling together a mood board of textures and inspiration for all of you wishing to embark on a bathroom makeover. Sea-Mist Scape Theme: Nature inspired Sea Scape Inspiring Places: […]
One of the most common questions for our design team is ‘I only have a small cloakroom – how can I turn it into an attractive space’? A downstairs cloakroom can either be the most seen or the least loved room in your home. Ensuring you have adequate space and a quality finish can make […]
If you aren’t aware of the Catchpole and Rye story, we come from a tradition of antique and beautiful bath ware, created and cultivated for the modern day. That means we know a little something about taking something old and showcasing its true beauty. We live in a trend-led world, so when you find something […]
In honour of Stockholm Design Week, we wanted to talk about bringing hygge into your home and, importantly, into your bathroom. The Danish ‘cosy’ concept embraces a calm and tranquil vibe; hygge is a Norwegian term for a mental state of wellbeing. The Danes are experts at staying happy during even the coldest of months […]
A bathroom that is shared by several family members is a hardworking space that has to cater for a range of (ever-changing) needs. Is it possible to create a room that meets the very different requirements of little ones, teenagers and grown-ups, often all at the same time? With a little planning, we think it […]
As more and more space and importance is assigned to our bathrooms, the more we want them to reflect our personalities and lifestyles just as much as the other rooms in our homes. In a world of mass production and a throwaway culture, our customers frequently tell us that what attracts them to our products […]
The timeless aesthetic of white makes it a popular choice in interiors – it will never go out of fashion and suits any style of home, from the most traditional to the most contemporary. Nowhere is white more prevalent than in the bathroom, where it brings a fresh, light and airy feel to what is often […]
We all love the idea of luxuriating in a spa-style bathroom, but the images we see online and in magazines of vast bathrooms with freestanding roll-top baths, roomy walk-in showers and oodles of built-in storage can feel alienating – in reality, the majority of bathrooms are far more modest in size. The good news is, […]
Once upon a time, bathrooms were purely functional spaces, discreetly tucked away at the back of the house. In the modern home, on the other hand, they tend to be given star status. Influenced by a growing focus on the show-stopping bathrooms and extravagant spa facilities of luxury hotels, homeowners are increasingly seeing the bathroom […]
The key to any successful building or renovation project is thorough planning, and a new bathroom is no different. If you’re redesigning your bathroom (or adding one from scratch), you’re probably grappling with questions about budget, plumbing, layout, styles and finishes, many of which need to be answered early on in the process. But don’t […]
Spring is in the air, and in fashion and interiors that means one thing: a proliferation of pastels! When it comes to the bathroom, however, a gentle, muted colour palette is not just for the warmer months – it works wonderfully all year round, creating a peaceful, tranquil ambience in a room that is made […]
‘To create something original, you must first fully understand the past’. This statement is key to the Catchpole & Rye ethos. Our business is built around a passion for antique baths and sanitaryware and a desire to preserve the craftsmanship that went into their creation; as a result, many of our distinctive products are faithful copies of […]
With Valentine’s Day only eight days away, we thought we’d focus on some Catchpole & Rye products that are made for two! Double basins In a sizeable space, a twin basin or washstand is both a practical and a luxurious choice. We lead busy lives, and being able to double up in the bathroom […]
When choosing a new bath, it is natural to focus on aesthetics – it is an investment piece that will be a feature of your home for many years, so loving how it looks is a must. There are, however, other considerations to be taken into account. Here’s our summary of the best Catchpole & Rye […]
Metallics have been big news in interiors for a while now, and the bathroom is perhaps the best room in the house to show them off. Metallics convey a sense of luxury that has become a ‘must’ in the modern bathroom and are a great way to create a spa-like feel. What’s more, their natural […]
Our attitude to the bathroom has changed. No longer seen as purely functional, it has become an indulgent space in which we choose to linger, wallow and relax mind, body and soul. More and more square metres (and budget) are being dedicated to the bathroom, making it one of the most luxurious rooms in the […]
Last month on our blog we wrote about Goodwood Revival, the festival that relives the glory days of this classic motor circuit. As a celebration of history, classic design and great craftsmanship, we found it inspiring, not least because these values are the driving force behind our own company ethos. At Catchpole & Rye, our […]
