Gosh it has been a while! This spring has been crazy! Between the Fargo & Moorhead areas booming with new construction and remodeling and being in Chicago for the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show I need to catch up on my blogging. I have so many projects to post it is hard to decide which to share with you next!
This bathroom is one that I had a blast working on.... although thinking back...I have a great time working with all of my clients on their projects! When I first walked into this bathroom I noticed that it had great bones to work with but needed a face lift. The client’s intentions were not to tear out the entire space but to keep the pieces that still really worked for them. Any time that I can save pieces in a space I am happy to - it saves my client cost, gives us a piece to start with and work around and best of all - keeps materials out of landfills! The pieces that we saved include the cabinetry & tub; which were the largest items in the space.
The design concept and goal for this space was to create a spa feeling while keeping the space warm and using 2 colors that my client favored - rust & teal. We decided to keep the existing vanities however swapped the tops for a stunning rust color of Cambria quartz. We also switched out the existing chrome fixtures for oil rubbed bronze. To give each vanity a bit more of a furniture piece look sconces were added to each side of the new mirrors (stained to match the existing cabinetry).
The item that made the biggest difference in this space.....tile! We tore out white tile with navy blue accents and opted for a much more luxurious and warm stone look in a porcelain tile. To bring my clients color scheme full circle a handmade glass mosaic from Oceanside Glass was selected to extend around the room to tie the space together. We framed the beautiful mosaic in with hand crafted glass liners from Oceanside Glass. In the shower a pebble floor was used to achieve a spa feeling however we selected flat pebbles so there is not as much texture to the floor.
A light soft teal paint brought color into the space and was the perfect finishing touch to round out the space. Of course we added fun accessories to match such as oil rubbed bronze towel bars, Corian accessories in the shower & rich heavy oil rubbed bronze hardware for the cabinetry.
