DiD worked closely with our client and their contractor to carve out a much needed new master bathroom in this 100 year old home. We had to take over the only small closet in the room to do so. CAD work and moving a secondary bedroom door just 5" was the key to creating another closet in the master bedroom and keeping one in the back bedroom.

Shower

The client needed an additional shower room upstairs as the only family bathroom was two storeys down in the basement. At first glance, it appeared almost an impossible task. After much consideration, the only way to achieve this was to transform the existing WC by moving a wall and "stealing" a little unused space from the nursery to accommodate the shower and leave enough room for shower and the toilet pan. The corner stack was removed and capped to make room for the vanity. White metro wall tiles and black slate floor, paired with the clean geometric lines of the shower screen made the room appear larger. This effect was further enhanced by a full-height custom mirror wall opposite the mirrored bathroom cabinet. The heated floor was fitted under the modern slate floor tiles for added luxury. Spotlights and soft dimmable cabinet lights were used to create different levels of illumination.

Vorrangig für dieses „Naturbad“ galt es Stauräume und Zonierungen zu schaffen. Ein beidseitig bedienbares Schrankelement unter der Dachschräge trennt den Duschbereich vom WC-Bereich, gleichzeitig bietet dieser Schrank auch noch frontal zusätzlichen Stauraum hinter flächenbündigen Drehtüren. Die eigentliche Wohlfühlwirkung wurde durch die gekonnte Holzauswahl erreicht: Fortlaufende Holzmaserungen über mehrere Fronten hinweg, fein ausgewählte Holzstruktur in harmonischem Wechsel zwischen hellem Holz und dunklen, natürlichen Farbeinläufen und eine Oberflächenbehandlung die die Natürlichkeit des Holzes optisch und haptisch zu 100% einem spüren lässt – zeigen hier das nötige Feingespür des Schreiners und die Liebe zu den Details. Holz in seiner Einzigartigkeit zu erkennen und entsprechend zu verwenden ist hier perfekt gelungen!

The client decided that she was in her "forever home" and wanted to create a space that felt clean and fresh but referenced elements of a vintage aesthetic. Panel molding, gently swooping paintable wallpaper, a high-contrast palette and gleaming fixtures from Kohler's Artifacts line all contributed to the look. "I'm never leaving this room," she said when we were done--and somehow I believe that might just be true! Image shot by John Bilodeau

The bathroom has honed slate flooring and black glossy subway tile. We offset the pedestrian quality of typical subway tile by installing it stacked, vertically and by using teal grout. The minimalist qualities of the sleek sconces and simple polished nickel faucet create a sense of luxury in a "home away from home". Photo by Meredith Heuer
