Finding a home is not easy in a seller’s market, but when my clients discovered one—even though it needed a bit of work—in a beautiful area of the Santa Cruz Mountains, they decided to jump in. Surrounded by old-growth redwood trees and a sense of old-time history, the house’s location informed the design brief for their desired remodel work. Yet I needed to balance this with my client’s preference for clean-lined, modern style. Suffering from a previous remodel, the galley-like bathroom in the master suite was long and dank. My clients were willing to completely redesign the layout of the suite, so the bathroom became the walk-in closet. We borrowed space from the bedroom to create a new, larger master bathroom which now includes a separate tub and shower. The look of the room nods to nature with organic elements like a pebbled shower floor and vertical accent tiles of honed green slate. A custom vanity of blue weathered wood and a ceiling that recalls the look of pressed tin evoke a time long ago when people settled this mountain region. At the same time, the hardware in the room looks to the future with sleek, modular shapes in a chic matte black finish. Harmonious, serene, with personality: just what my clients wanted.

an elegant, modern master bath in this 9000 square foot penthouse makes use of beautiful custom designed vanities, ceiling designs and floors with inlaid marbles and wood work. a back lit, art bronze ribbon tub wall is the entry feature.

The Bain Ultra Elegancia soaking tub echoes the shape of the vanity across from it in this St. Louis modern master bathroom remodel. The cherry wood tub surround is topped by Cambria Whitehall quartz, which moves into the glass-enclosed walk-in shower to form a bench seat. Both tub and shower have Hansgrohe chrome fixtures. The porcelain tile on the heated floor also moves up the walls, accented by iridescent glass tiles. Pella windows bring abundant light to the new space.

The master bath was designed to create a calm and serene space for the owners. The large soaking tub and steam shower are the main focal points but the floor to ceiling tile walls, suspended double vanity with tall mirrors and wall sconces are a close second. The shower curbless with zero entry clearance and a long suspended bench.

This bathroom renovation creates a luxurious look where the black accent elements stand out. The black accents paired with the blue, green, gray geometric accent tiles in the shower entices you to spend longer in the bathroom. The shower is oversized which balances the vanity and under mount tub.

This master bath was designed to modernize a 90's house. The client's wanted clean, fresh and simple. We designed a custom vanity to maximize storage and installed RH medicine cabinets. The clients did not want to break the bank on this renovation so we maximized the look with a marble inlay in the floor, pattern details on the shower walls and a gorgeous window treatment.

This bathroom has a lot of storage space and yet is very simple in design. CLPM project manager tip - recessed shelves and cabinets work well but do make sure you plan ahead for future maintenance by making cisterns etc accessible without destroying your lovely bathroom!

The bamboo shelf is ideal for locating candles and vases to make the bathroom a warmer, more serene place to relax and bathe. The tile wainscot wraps under the shelf and serves as a horizontal visual datum in contrast to the red vertical at the sink. Photo: Bay Area VR - Eli Poblitz Photo: Bay Area VR - Eli Poblitz
