Period Appropriate Luxury
This bathroom started life as a bedroom. The fluted
oak trim and parquet floors were beautiful, but completely at odds
with the Craftsman detailing of the rest of the house. We gutted
the space (saving the trim and other elements for later re-use)
and performed significant structural repair.
The custom-built vanity was designed by the homeowner
to have traditional, flush-inset Shaker styling and to maximize
storage potential. It was topped with dramatically-veined China
Brown marble, adding a richness to the bright and airy space.
The large shower stall features travertine on the
walls and ceiling, a rain-head shower, and a floor-to-ceiling custom
shower door.
The heart of pine 6 panel door and antique hardware
were selected from our salvage inventory to lend a sense of history,
warmth and coherency to the addition.
The floor tiles are travertine, and the windows
are new, energy-efficient solid wood windows. The trim was custom
milled to match the original profiles found in the house.
The bathroom features a nook for new washer &
dryer and a private, yet brightly lit, water closet alcove. This
space also provides ample room for additional storage.
