The Art Deco style represents personal restoration and fun. Products and style have been inspired by the roaring 20 when Art Deco was in its hay day.

The custom designed vanity represents where the past meets present day with the timber finish reflecting nature. A surprisingly large size bath has been provided, with the curvature reflecting Art Deco design.
