GROHE Allure – a perfect choice for classical and modern settings
A shining example of how defunct downtown space can be successfully revitalised is provided by the new 10 Rochester Row residential scheme in London’s borough of Westminster. Built by Britain’s leading housebuilder Barrett Development PLC, the apartments and penthouses have a gross area of 990 square metres and were completed at the end of 2010.
The luxury residences designed by Assael Architecture London have attracted a “Building for Life Gold Standard” rating. The firm has already been instrumental in the revitalisation and modernisation of numerous residential developments, bringing to bear its flair for innovative design and its understanding of historic context. Towering over charming period houses, the modernised 10 Rochester Row complex exemplifies this approach.
This nine-storey residential complex leaves nothing to be desired. The apartments are generously dimensioned at between 200 and 1000 square metres and designed for multifunctional use. With their designer kitchens and modern bathrooms, these residences are genuine dream homes.
History played an important role in designing this luxurious residential development. An atrium inspired by Roman architecture provides a “window on the sky”, flooding a private central courtyard with natural light through eight tall glass cupolas.
This exemplary urban chic continues in the bathrooms – refined with GROHE StarLight® chrome finishes. GROHE Allure is a shining example of beautiful faucets which are practical and functional at the same time, the perfect choice for adding to a sophisticated bathroom ambiance. Its design blends curved, cylindrical and cuboid shapes into an “alluring” combination, reflecting both a sense of precision engineering and masterful tradecraft while conjuring up images of naturally flowing water.
Sensual inspiration is also felt in the shower where GROHE Rainshower® systems or - depending on the respective interior design - GROHE Tempesta head showers provide an enhanced wellness factor. To complete the experience, the GROHE Talentofill gracefully fills the bath via the overflow and waste control for complete comfort and relaxation in the bathtub.
