I custom designed this vanity out of zinc and wood. I wanted it to be space saving and float off of the floor. The tub and shower area are combined to create a wet room. the overhead rain shower and wall mounted fixtures provide a spa-like experience. Photo: Seth Caplan

Renovation and restoration of a classic Eastlake row house in San Francisco. The historic façade was the only original element of the architecture that remained, the interiors having been gutted during successive remodels over years. In partnership with Angela Free Interior Design, we designed elegant interiors within a new envelope that restored the lost architecture of its former Victorian grandeur. Artisanal craftspeople were employed to recreate the complexity and beauty of a bygone era. The result was a complimentary blending of modern living within an architecturally significant interior.

Powder Room was a complete tear out. Left gold painted glazed ceiling and alcove. New hardwood flooring, carved wood vanity with travertine top, vessel sink, chrome and glass faucet, vanity lighting, framed textured mirror. Fifth Avenue Design Wallpaper. David Papazian Photographer

Modern powder room, with travertine slabs and wooden panels in the walls.

The focal point for this powder room is the stacked stone wall - very striking. The travertine vessel sink with waterfall faucet also make a nice statement. What a great use of natural products for this personality rich powder room.

Instead of a mirror in front of the sink that displays one’s own image, an intricate mosaic tile takes the spotlight and the mirror is angled to the right, allowing a quick peek to check one’s hair or makeup.

This was a redo of a River House - Now a Lake House on Lake Medina. It was originally built in 1906 as weekend house on the Medina River. Later the river dammed and it became a weekend lake house. In keeping with the overall look of the house we tiled this shower in black and white subway tiles and tiled the entire walls of the bathroom. We installed frameless glass shower. It went from a 1906 old tub to this clean and inviting bath. It was a fun project
