"Hollond describes herself as a "serial bather" and is particularly good at creating settings for steeping. "There is something to be said for a bathroom that it is a place of sanctuary," she says. "I love the challenge of making a space that needs to be extremely practical feel like a room that one wants to spend a lot of time in.""
"Hollond advocates spending on finishes-here in a Sussex house, nuanced tadelatk walls and Mosaic Factory Moroccan zellige combined with Italian banded red tiles. And saving by buying elegant antique fixtures, such as this double sink. Her go-to for vintage sanitary ware is Frome Reclamation in Somerset, England (to find a source near you, search for architectural salvage centers and watch Facebook Marketplace and Craig's List)."
Phoebe Hollond trained under Beata Heuman and embraces bold color, pattern, cozy vintage elements, and lustrous surfaces. Her interiors combine Swedish exuberance with classic British comforts such as deep soaking tubs and towel warmers. She prioritizes sanctuary-like bathrooms that remain highly practical and tailored for long, steeping baths. She recommends investing in high-quality finishes like tadelakt, Moroccan zellige, and banded tiles while sourcing elegant antique sanitary ware from reclamation centers. She favors discreet storage in custom mirrored medicine cabinets, shell-shaped lighting that provides both task and flattering light, and re-enameling claw-foot tubs to preserve vintage character.
