Kanso

Kanso—Japanese for simplicity—distills bathroom design to essential elements. Clean lines, neutral palettes, unfinished wood accents, and brushed metals create a meditative aesthetic. Your bathroom sanctuary becomes a space of clarity where the absence of clutter creates mental space and functional purity guides every choice.

The Kanso Collection — Japandi Range

Kanso means simplicity in Japanese — not the stripped-back, clinical kind, but the kind where everything in a room has a reason to be there and nothing competes for your attention. The collection brings that thinking into the bathroom through smooth grey furniture, matt black brassware and a clean, neutral palette that makes even a busy family bathroom feel calmer.

Smooth grey furniture, made to disappear

The Kanso furniture range — wall hung vanity unit and matching WC unit — comes in a smooth matt grey finish with soft curved edges and handleless drawer fronts. The colour is deliberately neutral, sitting between warm and cool so it works with almost any tile palette. Wall hung mounting keeps the floor visible, making the room feel more spacious than it is. The vanity comes with an integrated ceramic basin for a seamless look.

Matt black brassware throughout

Every fitting across the collection is matt black — basin tap, exposed shower set, walk-in shower screen, heated towel rail radiator, flush button and accessories. Matt black is a bold but grounding finish that creates clean contrast against the grey furniture and light walls without dominating the room. The Kanso basin tap has a squared contemporary design with smooth lines and minimal detailing, designed to complement the furniture rather than compete with it.

A shower space that feels open

Kanso features a matt black framed walk-in wetroom panel with a dark slate-effect shower tray — an open, doorless showering area that keeps the room feeling spacious. An exposed thermostatic shower set in matching matt black sits on the wall with a square overhead rain head and handheld handset. The walk-in design removes barriers and visual clutter, which is exactly what Kanso is about.

Details that hold the room together

The matt black accessories set — soap dispenser, tumbler holder, toilet brush holder, toilet roll holder, towel bar and robe hook — all feature squared bracket detailing with frosted glass cups. They're small pieces, but they're what stop a bathroom looking like it was put together from different ranges. A matt black flat-bar heated towel rail radiator completes the look, keeping towels warm while tying the brassware together.

Less to look at, more to feel

The point of Kanso isn't to create an empty bathroom — it's to create one where everything you see is something you chose deliberately. No visual noise, no mismatched finishes, no accessories that don't belong. If you'd like to see how that feels in person, visit our Birmingham showroom or call us on 0121 753 0700 to plan your layout with our team.

What's included in the Kanso Collection?

The collection includes a matt grey wall hung vanity unit with integrated ceramic basin, matching grey WC unit, back-to-wall toilet with matt black flush button, matt black squared mono basin mixer tap, matt black walk-in wetroom shower screen, dark slate-effect shower tray, matt black exposed thermostatic shower set with square rain head and handset, matt black flat-bar heated towel rail radiator, and a matt black accessories set with frosted glass detailing including soap dispenser, tumbler holder, toilet brush holder, toilet roll holder, towel bar and robe hook.

What colour is the furniture?

The furniture is a smooth matt grey with soft curved front edges and a handleless finish. It's a balanced mid-grey that works equally well against white, dark or natural tile backgrounds.

What finish is the brassware?

All brassware across the collection is matt black — consistent across taps, shower fittings, shower screen frame, towel rail, flush button and accessories. The squared detailing on the tap and accessories gives the collection a contemporary, architectural feel.

Can I have a double vanity setup?

Yes. The Kanso vanity units are designed to work as singles or in pairs. Two units side by side with individual mirrors above creates a clean his-and-hers layout without needing a wide double unit.

What sizes does the vanity come in?

The Kanso vanity is available in multiple widths to suit different room sizes. Check individual product pages for exact dimensions, or call us on 0121 753 0700 and we can help you work out which size fits your layout.

Is the furniture wall hung?

Yes. All Kanso furniture is wall hung, keeping the floor clear for a more open, spacious feel. You'll need a solid wall or suitable plasterboard fixings for installation.

What makes Kanso different from Shibui and Wabi?

Kanso is the most minimal of our Japandi collections. Where Shibui and Wabi lean into warm walnut tones and brushed bronze, Kanso uses cool grey furniture and black brassware for a cleaner, lighter look. It's the pick if you prefer calm neutrality over warm natural textures.
