In a world where metallic finishes have constantly come in and gone out of favour, perhaps the matt black finish is a bathroom’s new little black dress; always classic, always elegant.
Matki have addressed this trend by introducing a range of shower enclosures and bathscreens with a marine grade matt black coating, which is scratch resistant and wonderfully bold.
Black and Gold combine in this confidently styled bathroom to dramatic effect. Another stunning creation from Draw A Bath in The Wirral. The Matki EauZone Plus Ultra Bespoke Shower Door in Matt Black color-coordinates with other matt black and gold fittings around the bathroom, forming a striking and highly functional barrier for the shower and steam room within.
Accurately measured and carefully installed by Matki Installations, our in-house expert team, this superb example exhibits beautifully minimal matt black framing and hardware, and frameless junctures with the floor and ceiling. Draw A Bath are real experts in luxury bathroom design, supply and installation and are a valued Matki and Swadling Brassware Dealer.
EauZone Plus Hinged Door with Hinge Panel and Inline Panel for Recess : With a vast selection of standard sizes, the EauZone Plus Hinged Door with Hinge Panel and Inline Panel for Recess is a stylish option for creating luxurious recessed showering spaces. Regardless of size, the door is held firmly in position by Matki’s EauZone Plus patented, non-slip hinges. A range of unique glass finishes are available through EauZone Plus Bespoke.
While matt black might not be as flashy as its metallic counterparts, its velvety finish and graphic silhouette is giving warm metal a real run for its money. Both classic and edgy, matt black harkens back to Victorian claw-foot tubs and farmhouse water pumps, all the while managing to look modern and industrial.
Illusion for Corner – Frameless, without compromising on perfect functionality: The Illusion for Corner has a special, unique offset hinge system to allow for the widest possible entrance with 8mm solid Safety Glass for a luxurious feel in use. Not including a Shower Tray, it is a high-quality solution to fit on an existing Shower Tray or Wet Room floor designed with a generous adjustment width. Regardless of the door handle style, the door closes with a firm and satisfying sound into the watertight closure.
Chrome and nickel finishes feel stark and cold next to velvety cabinets and patterned cement tiles. Metal trends cycle between warm golds and cool silvers. Matt black stands apart from these popular finish options offering a soft modernism or farmhouse industrial look.
Matt black is a really strong trend at the moment. The popularity of matt black really comes from it being a neutral color, it’s such a versatile finish that can go with any design style. Matt black is a great complement to industrial modern schemes such as natural woods and concrete. The neutrality of the finish allows the depth and weight of these earthy materials to come to the fore.
