A Minimal Modern Spa Bathroom completed by Storybook Interiors of Grand Rapids, Michigan.

The single, guest bathroom has a single vanity matching the one in the master bathroom.

Fifty years ago, a sculptor, Jean Neufeld, moved into a new home at 40 South Bellaire Street in Hilltop. The home, designed by a noted passive solar Denver architect, was both her house and her studio. Today the home is a piece of sculpture – a testament to the original architect’s artistry; and amid the towering, new, custom homes of Hilltop, is a reminder that small things can be highly prized. The ‘U’ shaped, 2100 SF existing house was designed to focus on a south facing courtyard. When recently purchased by the new owners, it still had its original red metal kitchen cabinets, birch cabinetry, shoji screen walls, and an earth toned palette of materials and colors. Much of the original owners’ furniture was sold with the house to the new owners, a young couple with a passion for collecting contemporary art and mid-century modern era furniture. The original architect designed a house that speaks of economic stewardship, environmental quality, easy living and simple beauty. Our remodel and renovation extends on these intentions. Ultimately, the goal was finding the right balance between old and new by recognizing the inherent qualities in a house that quietly existed in the midst of a neighborhood that has lost sight of its heritage.

Shower and bathtub are cozy in this large wet room with brass shower fixtures and tub filler. A slim shower niche holds soaps and shampoos while the linear drain gives a clean and sleek look. Photos by Chris Veith.

A large portion of the cost associated with the material costs of this project, the large semi-frosted glass door brings balance to the space, creating a level of intimacy and privacy to the interior of the walk-in shower, while keeping the overall space inviting and open. Certainly worth the cost.

Modular seating with movable back supports, along with swivel chairs and a round loveseat (that also swivels!) provides these clients and their guest the options of gazing at the river view, watching the wall mounted TV (out of photograph), or facing the grand piano for jazz concerts by their son, a professional musician. photographer: Blaine Davis

With the use of a clean palette and modern, classic furnishings, created a loft space for clients looking to highlight their art and vintage collections, while at the same time downsizing their living space.
