BATHROOM EDITION
A softer approach to brassware finishes with BC Designs
subtle but meaningful shift, moving away from overtly polished surfaces towards finishes that feel quieter, more tactile and better aligned with the materials now shaping contemporary schemes.

BC Designs’ introduction of Brushed Pewter and Brushed Brass speaks directly to this change, offering two distinct directions that reflect how designers are thinking about metal within the wider palette of a space.
Brushed Pewter brings a cooler, muted tone that sits comfortably alongside stone, marble and concrete-inspired surfaces, offering an alternative to chrome that feels less stark and more relaxed. Brushed Brass, meanwhile, introduces warmth with a softened edge, its brushed surface removing the glare often
associated with traditional brass and making it easier to integrate with richer colours and natural textures.

tactile quality to brassware, where fluted detailing is not simply decorative but formed as part of the casting itself, lending each piece a sense of depth while maintaining a clean, contemporary outline.
Offered across a comprehensive suite that spans basin mixers, wall-mounted options, bath fillers and floorstanding bath shower mixers, the collection allows for a cohesive scheme that carries texture across the space without interruption. A considered palette of finishes, from chrome and matt black through to brushed brass, gunmetal and brushed bronze, opens up opportunities to pair fittings with both cooler and warmer interior schemes.
Crafted from solid brass and fitted with ceramic disc cartridges, each piece is designed with longevity in mind, supported by a lifetime guarantee on the body and a five-year warranty on internal components. Selected finishes benefit from PVD coating, enhancing resistance to everyday wear, while WRAS-approved models offer reassurance for UK specification. With Mineral Flute, Frontline Bathrooms
introduces a collection that places texture at the forefront, offering a refined alternative within contemporary brassware.
