Even the teensiest Powder bathroom can be a magnificent space to renovate – here is the proof. Bold watercolor wallpaper and sleek brass accents turned this into a chic space with big personality. We designed a custom walnut wood pedestal vanity to hold a custom black pearl leathered granite top with a built-up mitered edge. Simply sleek. To protect the wallpaper from water a crystal clear acrylic splash is installed with brass standoffs as the backsplash.

AFTER Bathroom 3

Talk about your small spaces. In this case we had to squeeze a full bath into a powder room-sized room of only 5’ x 7’. The ceiling height also comes into play sloping downward from 90” to 71” under the roof of a second floor dormer in this Cape-style home. We stripped the room bare and scrutinized how we could minimize the visual impact of each necessary bathroom utility. The bathroom was transitioning along with its occupant from young boy to teenager. The existing bathtub and shower curtain by far took up the most visual space within the room. Eliminating the tub and introducing a curbless shower with sliding glass shower doors greatly enlarged the room. Now that the floor seamlessly flows through out the room it magically feels larger. We further enhanced this concept with a floating vanity. Although a bit smaller than before, it along with the new wall-mounted medicine cabinet sufficiently handles all storage needs. We chose a comfort height toilet with a short tank so that we could extend the wood countertop completely across the sink wall. The longer countertop creates opportunity for decorative effects while creating the illusion of a larger space. Floating shelves to the right of the vanity house more nooks for storage and hide a pop-out electrical outlet. The clefted slate target wall in the shower sets up the modern yet rustic aesthetic of this bathroom, further enhanced by a chipped high gloss stone floor and wire brushed wood countertop. I think it is the style and placement of the wall sconces (rated for wet environments) that really make this space unique. White ceiling tile keeps the shower area functional while allowing us to extend the white along the rest of the ceiling and partially down the sink wall – again a room-expanding trick. This is a small room that makes a big splash!

I designed this tiny powder room to fit in nicely on the 3rd floor of our Victorian row house, my office by day and our family room by night - complete with deck, sectional, TV, vintage fridge and wet bar. We sloped the ceiling of the powder room to allow for an internal skylight for natural light and to tuck the structure in nicely with the sloped ceiling of the roof. The bright Spanish tile pops agains the white walls and penny tile and works well with the black and white colour scheme. The backlit mirror and spot light provide ample light for this tiny but mighty space.

Adding new accessories, plants, a wall clock and floor mats gave this newly renovated bathroom a warmth and liveliness my client desired.

Kinsley Bathroom Vanity in White Available in sizes 36" - 60" Farmhouse style soft-closing door(s) & drawers with Carrara white marble countertop and undermount square sink. Matching mirror option available

Located withing an existing mid-century ranch house, we completely redesigned two existing small and dark interior spaces – a master bedroom and master bath. In the master bedroom we added a coffered ceiling and opened the view to the rearyard with a pair of black contemporary patio doors, which illuminate the space with natural light. In the master bath, we took an existing inefficient space and made it larger by eliminating interior walls and relocating all the existing plumbing fixtures. Because we were restricted with the existing footprint, we combined the free standing tub and shower within the same space – know as the “Shub”. The accent wall behind the free standing tub uses a white tile which mimicks ocean waves. Opposite the “Shub” we designed a free floating dual vanity and added a casement window to have a view of the rearyard. The new space is defined with clean crisp modern lines of the tile and plumbing fixtures

Our clients wanted to add on to their 1950's ranch house, but weren't sure whether to go up or out. We convinced them to go out, adding a Primary Suite addition with bathroom, walk-in closet, and spacious Bedroom with vaulted ceiling. To connect the addition with the main house, we provided plenty of light and a built-in bookshelf with detailed pendant at the end of the hall. The clients' style was decidedly peaceful, so we created a wet-room with green glass tile, a door to a small private garden, and a large fir slider door from the bedroom to a spacious deck. We also used Yakisugi siding on the exterior, adding depth and warmth to the addition. Our clients love using the tub while looking out on their private paradise!

Garden florals and colors were the inspiration for the total renovation and refurnishing of this project. The client wished for a bright and cheerful home to enjoy each day. Each room received fresh appointments and waves of colorful touches in furnishings, art, and window treatments- with plenty of nods to the client’s love for gardening. The bathrooms are the most fun botanical interpretations! The owner’s bath features a Carrera marble shower wall treatment, reminiscent of a sweet flower, along with a foliage-inspired chandelier and wallpaper. The secondary bath is like walking through a colorful rainforest with bold hues extending throughout the room. The plum vanity and Caribbean blue shower accent tile complement the wallpaper perfectly. The entire home flows from room to room with colors that inspire joyful energy. Painted furniture pieces, a multicolored striped settee, and powerful pillow fabrics are just some of the fun items that bring this once understated home into a whole new light!

See how we took the tiles all the way up to where the sloped ceiling begins? This is an optical technique to help extend the space.

This guest bathroom got an entirely updated look with the updated color palette, custom board and batten installation and all new decor - including a new vanity mirror, towel ring, wall hooks, art, and accent decor.
