Steal This Look: A Vintage Bath in England with a DIY Faucet



We?ve been following London theater designer Niki Turner from her chapel conversion in Bath to her French baroque house in Stroud, Gloucestershire, admiring her style and inventive solutions in each. The upstairs bath in the Stroud house is deceptively simple, cast in matte white with retrofitted fixtures and custom faucets. Re-create the look with a few of Niki?s genius tweaks and our list of similar accessories.

Above: Both the freestanding bath and sink (mounted on a pair of vintage brackets) catch water from two custom copper pipe faucets designed by Niki herself.
