タイルの凹凸が表情豊かな空間です。ダークブラウンの引き締め色で落ち着きある空間に。

Dark colors and sleek lines give this Asian inspired guest bath its dramatic look. Made from rift oak, the ebony stained vanity provides a nice contrast against the grey wall. The charcoal grey concrete countertop and backsplash lends depth to the cool color palette while the shower’s iridescent metallic pewter tiles from Walker Zanger lend a modern and glamorous touch. A white bubble light floats above the tiled sink and decorative Asian accents. The simple maple stained window casing ties this bathroom to the rest of the residence pulling together the design.

THE SETUP Upon moving to Glen Ellyn, the homeowners were eager to infuse their new residence with a style that resonated with their modern aesthetic sensibilities. The primary bathroom, while spacious and structurally impressive with its dramatic high ceilings, presented a dated, overly traditional appearance that clashed with their vision. Design objectives: Transform the space into a serene, modern spa-like sanctuary. Integrate a palette of deep, earthy tones to create a rich, enveloping ambiance. Employ a blend of organic and natural textures to foster a connection with nature. THE REMODEL Design challenges: Take full advantage of the vaulted ceiling Source unique marble that is more grounding than fanciful Design minimal, modern cabinetry with a natural, organic finish Offer a unique lighting plan to create a sexy, Zen vibe Design solutions: To highlight the vaulted ceiling, we extended the shower tile to the ceiling and added a skylight to bathe the area in natural light. Sourced unique marble with raw, chiseled edges that provide a tactile, earthy element. Our custom-designed cabinetry in a minimal, modern style features a natural finish, complementing the organic theme. A truly creative layered lighting strategy dials in the perfect Zen-like atmosphere. The wavy protruding wall tile lights triggered our inspiration but came with an unintended harsh direct-light effect so we sourced a solution: bespoke diffusers measured and cut for the top and bottom of each tile light gap. THE RENEWED SPACE The homeowners dreamed of a tranquil, luxurious retreat that embraced natural materials and a captivating color scheme. Our collaborative effort brought this vision to life, creating a bathroom that not only meets the clients’ functional needs but also serves as a daily sanctuary. The carefully chosen materials and lighting design enable the space to shift its character with the changing light of day. “Trust the process and it will all come together,” the home owners shared. “Sometimes we just stand here and think, ‘Wow, this is lovely!'”

The picture our clients had in mind was a boutique hotel lobby with a modern feel and their favorite art on the walls. We designed a space perfect for adult and tween use, like entertaining and playing billiards with friends. We used alder wood panels with nickel reveals to unify the visual palette of the basement and rooms on the upper floors. Beautiful linoleum flooring in black and white adds a hint of drama. Glossy, white acrylic panels behind the walkup bar bring energy and excitement to the space. We also remodeled their Jack-and-Jill bathroom into two separate rooms – a luxury powder room and a more casual bathroom, to accommodate their evolving family needs. --- Project designed by Minneapolis interior design studio LiLu Interiors.

The old ugly and dysfunctional bathroom was transformed and fully updated to today's needs and standards. The Space is an odd shape with angles and quite tight. But we made it all fit in there: Tub (slightly shorter than standard 60"), shower, wall mounted toilet and even a double sink vanity. This is the only bathroom in this San Francisco Victorian Condo.

The guest bath is enlarged by borrowing space from the guest bedroom. Bold, geometric tile in contrasting black and white make this a unique space.
