UK-based company Grange Design has launched its latest offering in bathroom fixtures, the Brunel Collection, a new range of taps and bath/shower mixers. This unique line of bathroom fittings draws inspiration from Britain’s rich industrial history and the original craftsmanship of Victorian engineering. The collection combines classical design elements with solid brass construction, blending traditional aesthetics with modern functionality.
The rise in popularity of historically styled interiors has led to increased demand for intricately designed bathroom fixtures. Tapping into this trend, Grange Design’s Brunel Collection features finely crafted taps that showcase the signature styling details reminiscent of a bygone era. Clive Griffiths, Manager at Grange Design, notes that British homes are embracing a variety of interior styles, and the Brunel range reflects this by providing highly decorative fixtures that bring a sense of nostalgia into contemporary bathrooms.
“The Brunel Collection allows homeowners to layer different design elements in their bathroom, adding a touch of heritage while preserving individuality,” Griffiths said. “Our collection meets the market’s demand for more ornate, decorative fixtures, with the standout piece being the six-spoke Brunel handwheel. It’s both elegant and functional, with a design that harks back to the engineering feats of the Victorian era.”
The Brunel Collection features basin taps and bath/shower mixers with a strong silhouette, distinct six-spoke handwheels, and a signature spout. The taps are finished in traditional chrome, reinforced with bold hexagonal bolt and nut details, and adorned with diamond knurled cuffs. Each handwheel also includes ceramic hot and cold indices, providing a perfect seal and completing the classical look.
Designed for various bathroom configurations, Brunel basin taps are available in both monobloc and three-piece models, making them adaptable to all plumbing systems. They come with a choice of curved or low-profile spouts and are deck-mounted for convenience. All taps in the range are finished in chrome and are supplied with pop-up wastes, adding to their functional appeal.
For those looking to make a statement with their bath fixtures, the Brunel bath/shower mixer offers a deck-mounted option with an integrated diverter, allowing users to switch between a wide-fill spout and a shower handset. Although the collection does not include a bath waste, its durable brass construction ensures longevity and reliability.
Grange Design has chosen solid brass as the material for the Brunel Collection, a choice praised for its durability and ability to evoke the qualities of past eras. Brass is known for its resistance to corrosion, making it an ideal material for bathroom fittings that must withstand humid conditions.
The taps are finished in polished chrome, a sleek, easy-to-clean surface that resists rust and corrosion, even in the often-damp environment of the bathroom. The Brunel Collection is positioned as a sophisticated option for homeowners who want to preserve individuality and embrace a historically inspired aesthetic.
