We’re excited to invite you to take part in our Small Bathroom Design Challenge – a fantastic opportunity to showcase your creativity, gain national exposure, and be in with a chance of winning some brilliant prizes.
Using furniture from our Elan, Burford or Aruba fitted ranges, we’re asking retailers to design a bathroom within one of two typical small British bathroom footprints. Your entry should include a moodboard, a layout or visual using software of your choice, and a short explanation of your concept.
Design a stylish, functional bathroom using fitted furniture from our Elan, Burford, or Aruba ranges, within one of two typical UK bathroom footprints:
Option A: Very Narrow – 1700mm (L) x 1300mm (W)
Option B: Small – 1800mm (L) x 1800mm (W)
Your entry must include:
A moodboard showcasing your concept
A completed design layout or visual (use any software you prefer)
A short explanation of your concept and how you’ve optimised the space
Required Design Features
Your bathroom design must incorporate a selection of core fitted furniture components to demonstrate practicality, storage potential, and design coherence within a small space. Specifically, we ask that you include a 600mm Sit On Countertop Unit, offering a sleek surface and basin solution ideal for compact layouts. A Tall Drawer Unit should also feature, showcasing vertical storage and the ability to maximise usable space without compromising floor area. To complete the scheme, you may wish to include a Wall Cupboard to illustrate clever use of wall space and accessible storage, as well as a WC, integrated into the layout to reflect real-life functionality.
