Elegant, classic master bath (more pics)!

I just had to share more pics of this bathroom renovation. The glass and mirrors add so much to the space. The contractor created a custom cover for the baseboard heater. It's beautiful and timeless.

Custom wainscoting and glass panel/shower door.

Custom cabinetry with mirrored inset doors and drawers and glass hardware add a clean, vintage style.

Large carrera tiles contrast the smaller basketweave on the shower floor.

The soft whites and grays create a soothing spa retreat.

I love the geometry of the floor tiles and the "X" moulding on the doors.

From inspiration pics to reality: elegant, classic master bath!

New carrara shower and custom vanity

With the exception of a few finishing touches, this classic master bath is complete. The client had the inspiration pics, and I helped her choose all the elements to make the inspiration become her new master bath reality.

12x12 carrara marble tiles set in a running bond pattern create a luxurious backdrop for the bath. Soft gray grout creates a graphic element to the tile design that white would not.  The perfect creamy off-white was chosen for the vanity, wainscoting and trim to complement the tile without making it look too gray as can happen when the wrong white is chosen with this type of marble. Gray upper walls and ceiling wrap the space and feel atmospheric, not heavy. Chrome and glass accents are the jewelry in this glamorous retreat.

Check out some befores (above) and afters (below). The entire space was reinvented, and the new bath complements the stately home perfectly.
