We designed this bathroom makeover for an episode of Bath Crashers on DIY. This is how they described the project: "A dreary gray bathroom gets a 180-degree transformation when Matt and his crew crash San Francisco. The space becomes a personal spa with an infinity tub that has a view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Marble floors and a marble shower kick up the luxury factor, and a walnut-plank wall adds richness to warm the space. To top off this makeover, the Bath Crashers team installs a 10-foot onyx countertop that glows at the flip of a switch." This was a lot of fun to participate in. Note the ceiling mounted tub filler.

The half bath is a dreamy retreat, with Navy Blue Onyx floors and vanity, illuminated by a cloud of tulips. A Murano glass sink in creams and grays, reminiscent of a seashell’s interior, adds a sense of ceremony to hand washing. A small bundle of dogwood with blooms reflective of the lighting overhead sits by the sink, in a coppery glass vessel. The overhead lights were made with an eco resin, with petals hand splayed to mimic the natural variations found in blooming flowers. A small trinket dish designed by Michael Aram features a butterfly handle made from the shape of ginkgo leaves. Pattern tiles made in part with recycled materials line the walls, creating a field of flowers. The textural tiling adds interest, while the white color leaves a simple backdrop for the bathroom's decorative elements. A contemporary toilet with copper flush, selected for its minimal water waste. The floor was laid with minimal cuts in the navy blue onyx for a near-seamless pattern. The same onyx carries onto the vanity, casings, and baseboards.

Finally, she wanted us to incorporate an integrated shower seat and a corner storage niche. We were able to give her everything on her wish list and create a beautiful and functional shower that is safe for aging in place

This secondary bathroom which awaits a wall-to-wall mirror was designed as an ode to the South of France. The color scheme features shades of buttery yellow, ivory and white. The main shower wall tile is a multi-colored glass mosaic cut into the shape of tiny petals. The seat of both corner benches as well as the side wall panels and the floors are made of Thassos marble. Onyx was selected for the countertop to compliment the custom vanity’s color.

The primary bath features a floating vanity, soaking tub, and glass shower. Ceiling with integrated cove lighting and a linear vanity reinforce the home’s horizontal planes.
