Clean Lined Master Suite

THE CLIENTS: An energetic couple in their fifties who decided to totally remodel their Master Bath. She is a nursing supervisor at a large local hospital. He is a sales manager for an international cruise line. She is very organized and loves to watch HGTV. He is a sentimentalist with numerous collections.

THE SPACE: The home is a 25 year-old two-story townhouse on a beautiful lake. We were given carte blanche to move adjacent walls. The room ended up at just over 100 sf. It has 8' ceilings and no windows.

CLIENT REQUIREMENTS:

Separate shower with a seat.
Deck-mounted air-jet tub with built-in grab bars
Maximum storage including medicine cabinets.
A soft spa-like color scheme.
Privacy at the toilet was not crucial
Cabinets and fixtures with clean lines for easy maintenance
Excellent lighting

SOLUTIONS:
To provide room for the new shower it was agreed to bump into and reconfigure the adjacent hall bath. We then positioned the toilet to take advantage of the existing plumbing and placed tall cabinets on each side to provide ample storage. Glass shelves above provide display for the husband's collections of shells and porcelain figurines. A pocket door kept the entryway as open as possible.

A knee-wall was built behind the vanity to create a ledge on which we installed 3 medicine cabinets which open toward the center to become a three-way mirror. Sconces positioned on each side of the medicine cabinets plus ceiling cans provide optimum lighting.

Cabinets are full-access with a simple bevel-edged door style in a soft off-white finish. The tile is a limestone-look porcelain strikingly accented with glass mosaics. Fixtures are Biscuit and Brushed Nickel.
