Interview with Carmen Barasona at IMCB
Carmen Barasona, founder of Barasona Design and Communication, states that“one of the reforms that makes families happier is to have a nice and design bathroom”.
Although a clean seal seems like a routine, in the bathrooms we spend one of the most pleasant moments of the day, it is our space of relaxation, intimacy and well-being. The bathroom has become one of the most important rooms of the house, and is the ideal space to recover energy and relax every day. Since 2005, the company Barasona Diseño y Comunicación offers a double service that encompasses communication, press and interior design. This multidisciplinary team, at the head of Carmen Barasona, its founder, aims to engage directly with manufacturers, distributors, customers and prescribers in the world of design, allowing them to address projects globally, offering clients the added bonus of effective communication.
We talked to her about her idea of the current bathroom. “It is one of the small great pleasures that we can have every day, and without leaving home. In our projects we love to include bathtub and shower, even gym equipment, chromotherapy, a reading corner… far has been that concept of small and graceless bath… one of the reforms that makes families happier is having a nice, designer bathroom.” It also favors opening the bathroom to the bedroom,“a bedroom with bathroom is much more intimate and is also very aesthetic. If you propose an exempt bathtub at some point in the bedroom you get an avant-garde space and give the room a romantic touch”.
In his opinion, the interior design of the bathroom has to make the client feel good and get his bathroom to be the one he really needs and wants, within his possibilities. Distribution and materials are also important, as are knowing who the bathroom is for, and knowing how to give every customer what they really need. From Barasona Design and Communication is clear that you should never lose sight of the functionality,but you also have to go further and offer customers special sensations. In a small space you can create a bathroom with great features.
As far as the design is concerned, he states that minimalism is still in force,although he advises that in that case do not forget to give a personal touch and avoid the feeling of coldness. “Remember that your home is your refuge and you must seek harmony. In addition in the current bathrooms there are also the organic, vintage, field trends… the bathroom must be integrated into the aesthetics of the whole of the house. Our latest projects have a marked orderly character, but they always have our cozy touch that characterizes us”
