This May, we have launched our biggest ever brochure. With 180 pages, the new spring/summer edition showcases our exciting collections, including many new designs.

The Victoria Plumb brochure has been evolving steadily, driven by a substantial increase in requests following successful TV campaigns this year. The new cover design mirrors our new TV advert creative which also launched this month.

Sam Jenkinson, our Marketing Manager said: “We’re pleased to offer our most extensive brochure to date. The new brochure builds on the success of previous editions and offers another ………

After being huge in the ‘30s, Hollywood Regency style is making a modern comeback.

The over-the-top style is not just for the rich and famous; a modern version is gaining popularity, and here is how this Hollywood look can be achieved within the bathroom in your home.

This decorating style is all about the glitz and glam of luxurious living that encompasses a range of neoclassical styles developed in the early 19th century; characterized by sleek lines, colour, drama and contrast.

Colour

To achieve this look within a bathroom, fill it with bold, vibrant tones such as reds, yellows and turquoise and contrast them against white or black flooring or tiling to create a dramatic effect. Victoria Plumb’s Arc bathroom suite (as seen ………

The increasing trend to bring the spa-like bathroom into the home has led to designs such the Victoria Plumb Valencia shower cabin. It has been specifically created to give the ultimate shower experience whilst providing maximum comfort; and as it is no bigger than a normal shower enclosure, it fits perfectly within most bathrooms.

Features such as the adjustable slider shower rail kit, the built-in shower seat and the towel rail, are within arm’s length when stood within the cabin, and all incorporated to provide that little bit of extra support and comfort whilst going about you’re daily routine.

The wide opening shower door allows easy access in and out of the shower, whilst the 8 adjustable body jets and internal ………

Luckily, Victoria Plumb is here to guide you through the spring/summer key trends of 2013 and hopefully inspire you with some innovative ideas so you can create your dream bathroom.

Unexpected Colour

Throughout 2012, we saw a lot of monotone pallets being used within the bathroom, which although calming, it left us feeling a little dull. However, we are now glad to be seeing that a splash of unexpected colour is one of the hottest trends for 2013, especially bright hues such as oranges and reds.

Adding colour to your bathroom can ………

With spring upon us, and an Easter break looming, there couldn’t be a better time to organise your bathroom and eliminate the clutter that easily accumulates on a day to day basis.

As one of the most frequently used rooms of the home, and more often than not, one of the smallest – it is essential to create a refined systematic plan for bathroom storage. Victoria Plumb, the UK’s leading online bathroom company, offer their advice on how to achieve a clutter-free, functional and most importantly relaxed bathroom haven.

The first step is to remove any unwanted items; anything that haven’t been used within the past year should be disposed of. The next step is to categorise the wanted items into the ………
