DO YOU BAMBOO?

ant to really nail the superspa look? Statement bamboo is the answer. According to superyacht, Zannier used real bamboo trees between two layers of glass, with plastic leaves (they trialled real ones initially and found they didn't survive) with printed bamboo trees overlaid on them. The massage room and beauty salon also featured hand-painted bamboo wallpaper . It's not a trend you need to feel guilty about updating a couple of years down the line, either. Pomponi states that many of her latest projects have included special glass panels, because “when you change your mind and you want a white and blue theme, or orange and red, for example, you simply change the panels and you can have a completely different atmosphere. It's a much more sustainable approach to spa design than ripping the whole thing out.”
