Multipanel launch Linda Barker Collection at KBB

Multipanel, the UK’s leading brand of waterproof decorative wall panels, launched its new 2018 collections at the Kitchens, Bathrooms and Bedrooms (KBB) exhibition in Birmingham on 4th March 2018

Multipanel has partnered with celebrity designer, Linda Barker, who has had direct input into who own range of Multipanel called the Linda Barker Collection. The Multipanel Linda Barker Collection from Multipanel is a range of 13 beautifully crafted waterproof panels, inspired by materials from the natural world such as stone, marble and wood.

Developed with the design loving house renovator in mind and for those looking to emulate the top bathroom trends in an affordable way at home, the Linda Barker Collection offers many stylish options for making the most of any bathroom space.

The Collection makes use of recent advances in laminate design technology. These allow much larger realistic true scale images to be printed on each panel, authentically replicating, for example, the look of real slabs of Calacatta marble, fossilised timber or patinated corten steel — all at a fraction of the cost of the real thing.

There are three colour and texture strands to the Linda Barker Collection from Multipanel: 

- Elements: subtle hues combined with an incredibly solid appearance —perfect for achieving an ultra-modern industrial look.

- Wood: a weathered look exuding gentle warmth and texture.

- Stone: the authentic look and feel of real stone and marble.

The much-loved interior designer has been helping the British public transform their homes with stylish and imaginative ideas since her first television appearance in 1994, as a presenter on Changing Rooms. More recently, Linda, who initially trained in fine art, has won many plaudits for her commercial work, including her kitchen range for Wren Kitchens, sofas for DFS and cabins for Thomson Holidays.

“For too long," says Linda, "the bathroom has taken a back seat in our homes. And even though the possibilities for decorating are endless, it's often the cost and the long downtime that a bathroom space needs whilst work is carried out, that stops us in our tracks."

“I was therefore excited to discover just how much quicker and more cost effective the whole bathroom makeover could be. Completely waterproof panels from Multipanel are easy to install, and importantly for a busy household, the downtime is kept to a minimum. What’s more, unlike traditional ceramic tiles, no grouting is required, which means a beautiful mould-free future for the renovation.”

A luxurious spa look is achieved with Calacatta Marble (Linda Barker Collection) feature wall and Sicilia flooring (Click Range).
