The Montcalm Mayfair Project With Fitzroy of London

Leading accessible bathroom brand Fitzroy of London collaborated with London interior design studio, Studio Mica, to develop accessible bathroom solutions for the launch of the new guest rooms and suites at Montcalm Mayfair in London. The brief was to elevate the guest experience through contemporary design that is both inclusive and effortlessly elegant, ensuring every accessible bathroom is as thoughtfully crafted as any other hotel room.

In need of bathroom solutions that would meet accessibility standards without compromising on luxury, Fitzroy of London was chosen for its knowledge and comprehensive product portfolio. The project features products from the brand’s popular Gosfield collection and is a striking example of contemporary design meets superior functionality. Gosfield fixed grab rails, removable grab rails, back rests and white pad shower seats were selected in PVD Satin Brass, pairing beautifully with the other finishes found throughout the hotel.

The warm, contemporary finish helps to enhance the gold veining running through the bathroom tiles, alongside the bold, bespoke wallpaper and playful patterns found in the bedrooms. Removable products were specifically requested by the hotel’s operations team so they were able to provide a flexible solution that allows the bathrooms to be adaptable to better meet the needs of different guests. Offering complete fluidity, when the grab rails are not needed by a guest, they can simply be removed and a matching backplate in the same finish is added in its place. The result is a spacious bathroom that is both elegant and refined.

Anna Mazurak, Senior Interior Designer at Studio Mica, commented: “When working on accessible bathrooms, it’s often difficult to find beautiful products that fit within our design brief. Working with Fitzroy of London was a fantastic experience. The brand offers a fully comprehensive range of accessible fittings in a wide array of designs, products and finishes, making it really simple to complement the existing features of the design. What really stood out was how collaborative the team was as they worked closely with us on every detail and provided us with all the product specification documents that we needed for our drawings.” 

Following its temporary closure in 2023, Montcalm Mayfair recently reopened following a bold renovation. Architects Holland Harvey oversaw the transformation, working with Studio Est and Studio Mica who reimagined the interiors, including 151 guest rooms and suites, a wellness space, bar, restaurant, public areas and an all-day dining brasserie. Fitzroy of London’s commitment to customisation and quality proved invaluable throughout the project, with the result being inclusive and contemporary bathrooms which received praise from the client and their customers.   www.fitzroyoflondon.com
