Bathroom Renovation
nderson tasked Fee with creating a mini wet room. Having lived in Japan for a while, he liked the bathtub-inside-the-shower setup he saw there. Fee placed a Victoria + Albert freestanding tub inside the open wet room. Originally the team planned to enclose the shower area with a glass door, but they decided during construction to let the room flow uninterrupted all the way through. They replaced the mirrored rear wall with a stacked slate one. Fee added a backlit false window for more light, with the slate framing creating a convenient shelf for the tub.
Space makers. In bathrooms where space is at a premium, it’s important that the storage solutions you incorporate are smart and use every last inch of room available. Take this clever bathroom cabinet, for example. Rather than the tall, deep, narrow cupboard’s being fitted with basic shelving, a pullout storage system has been used instead to maximize space and ensure that the cabinet’s contents are always visible and easy to access. Corner drawers, rotating carousels for awkward nooks and built-in compartments on the backs of cupboard doors are other crafty storage solutions you might like to consider
A cubby for your gadgets. Want your hair dryer, straightener, electric toothbrush or shaver to be easily accessible but don’t want them cluttering the top of your vanity? A compact nook with a lift-up door (like the one pictured) or pocket doors where you can stash your grooming gadgets may be just what you need. Position the compact cabinet on top of your vanity so that it sits at a comfortable and convenient height, and in front of an electrical outlet so the devices can remain plugged in, charged and ready to go at all times.
Bright lighting ideas. Do you often struggle to find items in your bathroom cabinet because it’s so dark inside? Built-in cabinet lighting will solve that problem. Opt for recessed downlights (use glass shelves in your cabinet or open shelving unit, rather than ones made from solid materials like wood or stainless steel, as this will allow the light to filter through to the bottom of the cabinet), or try a backlit panel that will illuminate the entire storage space, like the one shown here. For added functionality, rather than a switch-operated light, select a sensor light that automatically turns on and off when the cabinet door is opened or closed.
Simple and serene. Calm and uncluttered, this blissful Zen-inspired bath zone sets the scene for rest and relaxation. Neutral-toned walls add warmth and an inviting ambience, while the bath, vanity and scattered accessories in crisp white, as well as high-shine chrome fixtures, lift the look. A large window that provides an abundance of natural light sits high on the wall, so you can admire the view as you stand under the relaxing rain shower. A carved wooden plaque, decorative display of branches and bed of loose river pebbles that frames the tub complete the look.
Not everyone has a master bath that faces an empty beach or a dense forest. LeichtUSA in Irvine, California, gave the owners of this dreamy bath privacy by creating a walled courtyard outside the window. The wall is high enough to provide screening but not so high that it blocks out mountaintop views.
Adding yet another dimension to the lighting scheme, the matching lighted mirrors offer a visual break from the room’s many rectangular shapes and surfaces. When it came time to add this final touch, Herson felt a rectangular mirror flanked by sconces would have looked almost cluttered, whereas illuminated round mirrors would please the eye much more and eliminate superfluous wall mounts. She selected a warm color for the LED lights inside the mirror frames that is similar to that of incandescent lights, to ensure they would cast an amber glow.
Backsplash. The backsplash tile’s organic wave-like texture plays off the wood grain looks throughout the space. 3D Wave sink wall tile in gloss white: Atlas Concorde; wood soap dispenser: Bed Bath and Beyond

Bali Inspired spa bathroom Shower. A 16-inch rain shower extends from inside the skylight well, reminiscent of a natural outdoor shower. “The crazy, beautiful idea of setting a large rain shower up into the skylight made this bathroom playful and luxurious,” Linnebach says. “It was one of those ‘Can we really do that?’ moments that really excited everyone. We took a risk, and now it’s the homeowner’s favorite feature.” Linnebach added a concealed vent in the skylight well to make sure moisture didn’t get trapped up there. Faux-wood tiles on the shower floor, walls and ceiling create a rich, organic feel without the hassle of maintaining real wood in a wet area. Linnebach meticulously placed each faux-wood tile so it would be almost impossible to spot individual tiles. The slender slat-like tiles on the floor mimic the look of a tatami mat. The other tiles are concrete.

Toilet Cubicle
A custom-built wall-mounted vanity unit with cove lighting, shelf niches and a long expanse of poured sink and counter offers a boutique hotel feel at home.
If a wall-to-wall fitted bathroom unit is too kitchen-y for your tastes, consider compromising with a sizable vanity equipped with wide, deep drawers beneath. Opt for pure white cupboards, a pale stone top and acrylic handles so the piece doesn’t overwhelm the room, then fill it up with your toiletries for a clean and clear bathroom in minutes.

Create a shower cubicle without any glass doors... Few things can open up a bathroom space like glass walls and doors, but if you’re looking for an effective way to age in place, they won’t always fit the bill. They typically require more maintenance. Expect to squeegee regularly to avoid streak marks. If glass is something you can’t live without, there are types of heavy-duty shower glass that don’t require as much maintenance. However, they often come with a sizable price tag.
