The Beeches Bathroom in Alba

Location
Hertfordshire, UK
Material
Alba
At The Beeches Bathroom, Smile’s Alba panels, crafted from 100% recycled/recyclable HIPS, transform the space into a sleek, spa-like retreat. A contemporary family bathroom designed to feel light and airy, with a palette of white and pale timber accented by black grout lines and hardware. Alba’s elegant white base, subtly flecked with silver foil, brings timeless style while remaining 100% waterproof, mould-resistant, and hard-wearing – perfect for wetroom environments. Used as 5mm wall panelling, the recycled surface elevates the bathroom with a seamless, contemporary aesthetic, proving that eco-friendly materials can be both beautiful and functional.
