CHASING RAINBOWS
Will Cooper colors outside the lines
In January 2020, Will Cooper, partner and
chief creative offi cer at ASH NYC, took a
trip to India. As he made his way through
Rajasthan and cities like Agra, Mumbai,
and New Delhi, he was struck by " all the
vibrancy-the saris, the markets, the spices,
the jewels, " he recalls.
It was those vivid images that came
to the forefront when ASH NYC began
designing the retro-inspired bathrooms for
Ulysses, its forthcoming hotel housed in
a 1911 building in Baltimore's Mt. Vernon
neighborhood. " We were customizing
everything for this project, and it felt like
the plumbing fi tt ings were the last piece we
needed, " Cooper explains. Working with
Waterworks, he craſt ed Highgate, a limitededition
capsule collection.
ASH NYC has been a fan of Waterworks
for a decade now, so collaborating with the
bath and kitchen company to extend its
vision for dynamic bathrooms was a natural
fi t. Highgate's porcelain handles, buoyed by
solid brass components, are available for sink
faucets, fl oor-mounted exposed tub fi llers,
and thermostatic and volume control shower
valves in four cheerful colorways of azure
blue, cerise red, citron yellow, and jade green.
" Using red, blue, yellow, and green as a lens,
you can understand the façade of color, "
Cooper points out.
Designing eye-catching hotel bathrooms
has long been an ASH NYC hallmark. There
are the black ones at the Dean in Providence,
as well as the terrazzo-covered walls and fl oors
at the Siren in Detroit and the arched showers
fl aunting a series of vertical stripes at Hotel
Peter and Paul in New Orleans. " Developing
diff erent colors becomes a way to off er
diff erent experiences, " Cooper points out.
Highgate subtly injects an element
of surprise into hospitality sett ings, a
characteristic that Cooper hopes to see more
of. " A hotel is a transient place, " he says,
" and it's an opportunity for designers to do
something wild and live in a fantasy or a
movie set. hd
