Bathroom Tour: Ferren Gipson's London Loo (Laundry Included)
Photography by Ferren Gipson (@ferrengipson)
An American art historian in London, Ferren Gipson finds visual inspiration all over. For her London bath, she looked to Victorian public restrooms for ideas and started sketching plans. Take a look at the redone bath, redone during lockdowns.
Subway tiles with black grout now pattern the walls and run up the side of the existing tub, newly fitted with a shower.
The existing sink turned out to be cracked, so it was replaced with a Rectangular Wall-Mounted Stone-Resin Basin and Brushed Brass Mixer Tap, both by Arezzo from Victorian Plumbing.
Ferren took this selfie to celebrate the finished work; her dress is by L.F. Markey.
To squeeze in a stacked Hoover washing machine and Electra dryer, Ferren had her crew replace the existing shower stall with a painted wood cabinet.
Thanks to the convenient cupboard, Ferren says, most days she and her family manage to keep the surfaces clear of stuff.
