Spa-Inspired Primary Bath – Highland Park, IL
The Setup
Just like the kitchen remodel downstairs, we weren’t really retooling the overall layout for this master bathroom. The existing floor plan was a mindful match for the owners’ needs. The idea was to update the space and take it to the next level – we’re talking tranquility, luxury and a nook for making that first cup of the day!
Design objectives:
- Keep existing layout
- Create a serene, spa-like feel
- Use a monochromatic, soothing palette with lots of texture
The Remodel
The challenge was in selecting materials in a monochromatic palette that would all work in harmony.
Design solutions:
- Light Shou Sugi Ban look tile on floor creates a quiet backdrop and textural interest
- Dimensional tile in shower adds drama
- Stone herringbone offers contrast to other lighter materials
The Renewed Space
The clients love their fresh, neutral bath and feel confident the finishes will endure over time.
