Parent Retreats

Parent retreats can be a cosy corner, a room extension, balcony or entire wing of the house. Here are some ideas for creating that special place designed for adults only.

This second level is perfect for a parents retreat. I love the mirroring of the bi-folds downstairs and the open aspect. Photo credit- Zugai Studwick Architects

This concrete privacy cubicle provides a division from bedroom to bathroom whilst maintaining the bath and vanity as features. I particularly like the grey floor tile connection to the walls. This space would suit industrial style Photo credit- Altus Architecture and Design

A cosy nook by the fire and a glamorous styled bedroom may just be the escape you need from a busy life. The fireplace can be filled with wood or plants when not being used. The wood could be transferred to an attractive chest. Photo credit- hgtv.com
A private lounge area off the main bedroom needs to be comfortable and inviting. A couch and a television isn't enough to encourage use of a retreat. Music, wine, books and photo albums can make this an intimate space for a couple.
Many modern ensuite bathrooms are open to the main bedroom. This design creates a spacious retreat. The minimalist look lacks ambience. Accent colour, pattern, texture and personal touches add the intimacy and interest that a retreat should have.
This private lounge is cosy and open to the main bedroom which creates a natural flow and ensures it will be well used. The yellow accent adds warmth and white gives light to the casual relaxed space.
A resort style parents retreat is a great way to holiday at home. Less extravagant influences may include plants, statues, a water feature, artwork and exotic fabrics. Photos from a previous holiday help to create a relaxed space which evokes great memories.
