Blog Tour London: Design Centre Chelsea Harbour
Blog Tour London: Design Centre Chelsea Harbour
Saturday, November 03, 2012 | Category: Bed and Bath, Design Bloggers, Events, Shops and Showrooms
http://materialgirlsblog.com/losangeles/2012/11/03/blog-tour-london-design-centre-chelsea-harbour/
As part of Blog Tour London, we visited the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour in London. During our visit, we were hosted by two sponsors: Samuel Heath and Victoria + Albert. Samuel Heath specilizes in both classic and contemporaty bath fittings and Victoria + Albert produces the most amazing volcanic baths and sink basins. Here’s a highlight from our visit to both showrooms!
The entrance to the Samuel Heath showroom at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour.
Sleek modern bath fittings on display.
Chic bath accessories in black.
My somewhat iconic (& personal fave) pic of fellow bloggers and blog tour members: Igor of Happy Interior Blog and Will of Bright.Bazaar blog “modeling” for the Samuel Heath showroom.
Just across the way is the entrance to the Victoria + Albert showroom.
Once again, I enlisted Igor & Will to jump in the bath together…
And they weren’t shy about it!
Beautiful sink basins on display at the Victoria + Albert showroom.
And another!
Inside the light filled atrium of the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour.
In conjunction with the London Design Festival, many events were also taking place, including major UK design magazines showcasing at the design centre.
Land Rover UK provided transporation to and from the design centre to other major events.
Just outside the Design Centre Chelea Harbour is a courtyard with the Vaughan showroom.
And there is indeed a Chelsea Harbour!
Thank you to Samuel Heath and Victoria + Albert for hosting us!

Cabrits-ing in London
Cabrits-ing in London
POSTED ON OCTOBER 17, 2012 BY PATTI JOHNSON INTERIORS
Have you Cabrits’ed lately?
Victoria ⊕ Albert create not just a tub, but an experience. If you’re skeptical, take a look at pictures I snapped while in their London showroom during September, 2012′s Blog Tour. Let’s start with the striking atrium of the Design Centre at Chelsea Harbour, London. I shot this photo just outside the Victoria ⊕ Albert Showroom.
http://pattijohnsoninteriors.wordpress.com/2012/10/17/cabrits-ing-in-london/
What makes a V ⊕ A tub so special, a stand alone in the industry? And I mean stand alone in more ways than one; Victoria ⊕ Albert is a British company that produces free-standing tubs and basins which are crafted from 100% QUARRYCAST®, a proprietary blend of naturally white volcanic limestone and high performance resins. The finish on these tubs is extraordinary!
Not only is the Cabrits tub a work of art that envelopes the bather, it is composed of a single seamless piece! Truly fine craftsmanship!
A view of a Victoria ⊕ Albert Cabrits tub made from volcanic limestone
The Cabrits 55 Basin to pair with your Cabrits tub
@MrGoodwillHunting cabrits in style!
The Cabrits tub is unique as it is contoured for the human body. With a raised center, it supports your legs from beneath the knees. Most notably is the back of the tub which is in somewhat of a reclining position, making it possible for even tall men to stretch their legs out vs. a cramped position. The reclining position also lends itself to an amazingly relaxing state that some bloggers took advantage of even without filling it with hot soapy water. I too sampled the tub and it was quite nice. I mean, really, it didn’t even wrinkle the clothing on the gentleman in the tub. Must be The Carraway Concept.
Coordinating basin in black and white
Victoria ⊕ Albert has a vast and amazing selection of tubs and basins for every style, from clean and contemporary to classic and claw foot.
A stunning example of a customized tub with mother of pearl mosaic tile on the surround~ So beautiful!
Here’s some more beautiful images and information about the Cabrits and white volcanic limestone.
What better way to ‘wrap’ up a Cabrits experience. Why with a luxurious and authentic Turkish Towel Shawl Collar Terry Bathrobe!
Thjs is not me, but I do have this robe! It was a lovely gift from sponsor The Turkish Towel Company!
A very big thank you to Modenus, a designer’s resource, for bringing 14 bloggers from around the world (especially me) to London along with sponsors like Victoria ⊕ Albert, who made us feel so genuinely welcome!
