In many properties, the bathroom is considered one of the key areas – a sanctuary from the outside world, where one can spend time alone to reflect and relax. The image of a bath overflowing with bubbles, while the occupier sips an ice cold cocktail, bathed in moody lighting, is the epitome of pure indulgence and decadence.
Whether you have a small space or a large suite to consider, there are hundreds of schemes from which to choose. And when it comes to how you want to use the space, from a contemporary wet room, or glamorous freestanding bath, designs by René Dekker all have one thing in common – the unmistakable scent of luxury.
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of wrapping up in a warm, luxuriously soft towel after a hot bath or shower, and a comfortable selection of towels in the bathroom is essential for any discerning home to delight both you and any guests. As any top interior designer will tell you, it’s all about the detail.
There are many different toweling types available, but essentially, towels should be soft, durable, absorbent, and feel luxurious. The trick to finding a towel that meets all these important criteria is identifying what’s in it and how it’s made.
While there are many other varieties and blends out there, cotton is still the best fibre for toweling as it is exceptional at absorbing water. In fact, it can hold up to 27 times its own weight in liquid and high quality raw materials are the key to luxury toweling. There are three different species of cotton used to make the products we know and love.
