A Bright New Bathroom for a New Year

A BRIGHT NEW BATHROOM FOR A NEW YEAR

January 23, 2020

A bright, functional and fun bathroom was at the top of my client’s wish list for their chic teenage girl. We took this dated and dark bathroom and gave it a complete overhaul to make it work for this teenager. I think her two younger sisters are already eyeing it for their own one day once big sis is gone!

BEFORE

The existing bathroom layout worked well, but it needed a new vanity to maximize storage and better lighting to make the space work. The client wanted a colored vanity and was open to the idea of hexagon cement tile to make the bathroom fresh and modern.

The gray hexagon tile is a statement, yet neutral, so it can last for years. The beautiful custom vanity offers functional drawers freeing up valuable counter space for all the things! I am in love with how the tile turned out. The dark hexagon really contrasts nicely with the light blue green of the vanity and the lighter countertop and shower tile. It really brings the wow factor to the space!

We mixed metals so the polished chrome faucets and cabinet hardware look stunning next to the black mirror and towel fixtures.  I couldn’t be more happy with the way they compliment each other.

The icing on the cake are the sconces. I wanted something modern and chrome that gave this girl good lighting for when she needed it while adding dimension to the space.  We put the sconces on a dimmer switch so that she can adjust the brightness of the sconces when needed. I have found that everyone has their own opinion about how much light they like to see themselves in!

The dated shower also got an overhaul with new floor and wall tile and a rain shower faucet that really work for this small but very important space. Adding a glass frameless door to the shower design really opened up the space further and lets the light in. I am so pleased with how the bathroom turned out and hope the family enjoys it for a long time.
