Master Suite with walk-in closet and master bath with zero threshold shower

This master bathroom received a full remodel. With the tub being removed, the storage expanded and the shower converting to a walk in entry. All of the modern conveniences were added; roll outs in the vanity, a toiletry tower, make up area, shower head and hand held, niche for storage and a shower bench. The warm gold veining in the tile coordinates with the brushed gold fixtures. The oil rubbed bronze fixtures stand out on the pebble tile water fall in the shower. The vanity lights are a mix of the brushed gold and bronze to tie the whole design together.

The white freestanding soaking tub with jet streams and stainless-steel fixtures is hidden away in the corner for a nice relaxing bath. The dark gray painted walls are outlined by white wainscoting panels along the bottom of the wall. The double hung windows sit right above the wainscoting and have shades for the bottom half of the window to allow for natural light to come in along with some privacy. The white tile flooring helps blend in the bottom part of the space creating a bright open feel to the room.

The room had been remodeled about 20 years ago as part of a large addition and consists of three separate zones – 1) tub zone, 2) vanity/storage zone and 3) shower and water closet zone. The room layout and zones had to remain the same, but the goal was to make each area more functional. In addition, having comfortable access to the tub and seating in the tub area was also high on the list, as the tub serves as an important part of the daily routine for the homeowners and their special needs son. We started out in the tub room and determined that an undermount tub and flush deck would be much more functional and comfortable for entering and exiting the tub than the existing drop in tub with its protruding lip. A redundant radiator was eliminated from this room allowing room for a large comfortable chair that can be used as part of the daily bathing routine. In the vanity and storage zone, the existing vanities size neither optimized the space nor provided much real storage. A few tweaks netted a much better storage solution that now includes cabinets, drawers, pull outs and a large custom built-in hutch that houses towels and other bathroom necessities. A framed custom mirror opens the space and bounces light around the room from the large existing bank of windows. We transformed the shower and water closet room into a large walk in shower with a trench drain, making for both ease of access and a seamless look. Next, we added a niche for shampoo storage to the back wall, and updated shower fixtures to give the space new life. The star of the bathroom is the custom marble mosaic floor tile. All the other materials take a simpler approach giving permission to the beautiful circular pattern of the mosaic to shine. White shaker cabinetry is topped with elegant Calacatta marble countertops, which also lines the shower walls. Polished nickel fixtures and sophisticated crystal lighting are simple yet sophisticated, allowing the beauty of the materials shines through.
