Putting the "Rest" Back in Restroom

“The restroom is one of the most influential rooms in any home, and the bookends to each day. It’s where you go to get ready for a fresh start each morning, and where you unwind after a long day,” states the design and project manager from Pure Design YYC. “[The restroom] is where you spend your time pampering yourself before date night or preparing yourself for an important job interview or presentation. It’s the busiest, most used room in the house, and often the most crowded! The bathroom is not just a room in your home - it’s the room in your home.”

New Trends in Restroom Design

Spa-like features and upgrades are the dominating trends that Pure Design YYC is seeing today. They state, “Bathrooms are no longer just utilitarian spaces hidden behind doorways at the end of the hall. Homeowners, builders, and designers are creating restroom spaces, from powder rooms to ensuites, worthy of retreat and relaxation. Spa-like luxuries are no longer reserved for weekend getaways but have become important details in homeowners’ bathrooms.”

Launched in April 2019, Calgary design firm Pure Design YYC entered the market with over a decade of industry experience. Their approach to the business is incredibly simple, yet effective. Fully-inclusive packages include luxuriously refined and practical, pre-curated designs. A look-book accompanies the designs so that clients can customize the details they want. This is the best way to save time and frustration as most homeowners do not take every detail into consideration. If they prefer, clients also have the option of a completely customized, floor-to-ceiling design. Transparent pricing eliminates hidden costs so that homeowners aren’t receiving any surprises; a good practice for any B2C business.

Like any great business, Pure Design YYC understands the importance of strong relationships with clients, contractors, and suppliers. To that point they note, “Marathon Hardware has been a great supplier for our vanity hardware options! All of our pre-selected handle/knob options are from Marathon Hardware. With so many quality designs, styles, and sizes we are confident that Marathon truly has the best offerings for our bathroom packages. Marathon has [also] been an excellent service provider. Communication is always professional and friendly, and the ability to view and order everything online makes the process so simple! All of the staff have been incredibly friendly and helpful and have played a role in ensuring our bathroom packages are of the highest quality.”
