Masculine Bath

A new bath in an 1853 Greek Revival home is designed for the husband in the family, and placed next to his third-floor office. The room presents modern, masculine design elements, like black slate floor tiles and sink top and polished chrome fixtures within an historical framework, such as high baseboard, built to match existing baseboards seen throughout the home, and a period-appropriate 12-paned window. A new skylight takes advantage of the top floor location to bring additional natural light into the space. Photo by Shelly Harrison.
