Renovation of a master bath suite, dressing room and laundry room in a log cabin farm house. Project involved expanding the space to almost three times the original square footage, which resulted in the attractive exterior rock wall becoming a feature interior wall in the bathroom, accenting the stunning copper soaking bathtub. A two tone brick floor in a herringbone pattern compliments the variations of color on the interior rock and log walls. A large picture window near the copper bathtub allows for an unrestricted view to the farmland. The walk in shower walls are porcelain tiles and the floor and seat in the shower are finished with tumbled glass mosaic penny tile. His and hers vanities feature soapstone counters and open shelving for storage. Concrete framed mirrors are set above each vanity and the hand blown glass and concrete pendants compliment one another.

Impluvium Architecture Location: San Ramon, CA, USA This project was a direct referral from a friend. I was the Architect and helped coordinate with various sub-contractors. I also co-designed the project with various consultants including Interior and Landscape Design Almost always, and in this case, I do my best to draw out the creativity of my clients, even when they think that they are not creative. This house is a perfect example of that with much of the client's vision and culture infused into the house.

This Guest Bathroom has a small footprint and the shower was claustrophobic in size. We could not enlarge the bathroom, so we made changes that made it feel more open. By cutting down the shower wall and installing a glass panel, the shower now has a more open feeling. Through the glass panel you are able to see the pretty artisan blue tiles that coordinate with the penny round floor tiles. The vanity was only 18” deep, which restricted our sink options. We chose a natural soapstone countertop with a Corian oval sink. Rich walnut wood cabinetry, polished nickel plumbing and light fixtures add sparkle to the space.
