This beautiful master bathroom was thoughtfully updated to stay in keeping with the architecture and style of the overall home. The intricate mosaic floor tile was also used as an accent strip along the shower wall. The subway tile wrapped the room as wainscoting and also acts as the backsplash for the sink. A single sink with dual faucets was utilized to maximize drawer and countertop space while keeping the functionality of having two faucets. The large linen cabinet also has an enclosed laundry hamper to keep the space clean and functional. Accessible features were added to meet the future/long term needs of this couple.

1. If the wife is happy…everyone is happy!
This lovely couple wanted to remodel their master bathroom, but still keep the updates
in line with the period of the home.
Both are active adults, but the wife is a long time endurance runner who will likely need
two hip replacements in the coming years. They wanted to plan their bathroom
remodel taking into account some ADA and Aging in Place considerations.
The wife is also an accomplished mosaic and glass artist. The tile work had to be top
notch so we brought in one of the best. Our only problem was keeping him on task so
that he and our homeowner didn’t spend too much time “talking shop”. The frosted
glass facade of the vanity light will ultimately be etched by the homeowner during one
of her future artistic endeavors.

• Entryway walked into toilet
• Toilet was near sink
• Closet door frame touching tub
• Outdated, but wanted to keep with the period of the house with remodel

7. Before |
The awkward layout
of the entryway to
the toilet and the
toilet to the sink
prompted the many
of the layout
changes.

8. After |Ease of access to the shower and controls was a key consideration

9. Before |
The front edge of the
toilet was visibly in
line with the doorway
and did not invoke a
sense of privacy or
safety.

10. After |
A hand held shower option,
grab bars and a bench were
installed for safety and
accessibility.
The couple decided not to
go to the expense of
moving to a curbless
shower, but considerations
were made for potentially
assisting the wife from a
wheel chair and into the
shower.

11. Before |
The master closet door
trim was impeded by the
shower wall.
Functional issues with
the shower/tub also
prompted the remodel.

12. After |
The cabinet pulls that had
been on back order for weeks
finally arrived…but not until
the day AFTER the
photographer’s pictures were
taken in order to meet the
local NARI CotY deadline.

13. After | Subway tiles wrap the room and make up the backsplash

15. After |
The single knob pulls were
installed and added the
perfect finishing touch to this
magnificent bathroom.

for your
consideration!
