Bathroom Remodel - Gentry

This is a total-gut remodel: we replaced everything but the sheetrock. We used marble-styled porcelain tile for the floor, walls, and shower. The top top around the tub is mint-colored glass tiles.We installed Carrara Marble countertops on custom painted-maple cabinets with square undermount sinks. The wall against the tub and the bar that the tub faucet sits on in a large sheet of true marble.

Rancho Bernardo Universal Designed Master Bath - CairnsCraft Design & Remodel

CairnsCraft Design & Remodel

Contractor: CairnsCraft Remodeling Designer: Anne Kellett Photographer: Patricia Bean This Rancho Bernardo couple required separate wall mount vanities that could be modified in the future to provide wheelchair access underneath. The medicine cabinet was recessed to offer more storage space. Mirrors are on inside and outside of the cabinet doors. The tall center storage cabinet and vanities are in Natural Cherry with Silestone countertops, and an under mount sink. Towel holders were placed on the each side of the vanities for easy access. The center storage cabinet drawers are of different heights to provide storage for both tall and short items. In the vanity area, 12x24” Ceramic Floor tile is radiant heated. Both recessed and sconce lights are on dimmers to allow a range of brightness for different visual abilities. Doorways are all 36” for full wheelchair accessibility with lever handles. 36” Barn Door (also called sliding door ), with exposed brushed stainless steel wheel track and oval flush pull provided an easy-glide doorway from the couple’s bedroom into the master bath.

The Wild West

The client wanted a Tuscan Cowboy theme for their Master Bathroom. We used locally sourced re-claimed barn wood and Quartz countertops in a matte finish. For the shower wood grain porcelain tile was installed vertically and we used a photograph from the client to custom edge a glass shower panel.

Traditional Master Bath Oasis

This master bathroom got a complete overhaul. We removed a large corner tub and tub deck to increase the size of the vanities and adding a make-up countertop. Removing the tub completely from the master bathroom allowed for a much larger curbless shower.

This small bathroom for a boy has a lot of impact and playfulness due to the bubble tiles. The shower has a Perrin and Rowe exposed shower pipe with hand shower and large rainhead. The shower enclosure is glass with rolling glass door. The vanity faucet is mounted to the mirror face and is from Perrin and Rowe. The small cabinet behind the toilet holds tissue and toletries. This bathroom was so compact in size, the custom vanity had to have a curved front to allow the door to swing past.

Bathroom Design Ideas with a Curbless Shower and Yellow Walls

If you’re looking for bathroom ideas, look no further than Houzz. Our image gallery brings you a large range of photos with inspiration for your viewing pleasure, and not only that - you can also save your ideas in ideabooks and find the professional that has done the job. When planning your bathroom design or update, start by collecting images of designs you like and take it from there. Whether you are designing your bathroom from scratch, redesigning, updating or simply decorating, you’ll be sure to find ideas for every possible scenario. And once you're ready, you can find the architect and/or builder to get the job done. But let’s start with the bathroom design basics.

How to Plan Your Bathroom Design

A good bathroom design brings together beauty and functionality. It reflects your personality in its style, colours, fittings and fixtures, but serves your needs to a tee both when you’re getting ready for work in the morning and when you want to wind down in your bathtub after a long day.

1 Collect Bathroom Ideas to Decide on Your Layout

Firstly, consider your space. Is it rectangular or are you working with a long, narrow room? This will determine how many wet walls you can accommodate, and if a bathtub can fit. For example, in a narrow room a freestanding bathtub may not work, and a one-wall layout that lines up shower, toilet and vanity on the same wall will make sense in most cases. (It’s also the most budget-friendly option in terms of plumbing). Maybe separate rooms for toilet and shower make sense? Maybe you want to work with a window above a bathtub or in the shower. You may live in an old house where you can keep some of the original character of the home, or you may be working with a small apartment space. All these considerations are vital in deciding on which layout will work best for you. Have a look at some popular ideas to get started.

2 Consider How You Use Your Bathroom

Once you’ve gathered some inspiration, have a think about who is using the room, and how they will be using it. A single guy needs a lot less storage than a teenage girl, and a family bathroom may need to consider elderly family members. Making your bathroom wheelchair accessible could save you thousands down the line. You may also want to accommodate a washer and dryer in the bathroom, since it’s where clothes are taken off frequently. Also consider safety and cleaning. Ensure no-one will slip and hurt themselves, and consider that many little tiles will make for many little nooks for grime to accumulate, whereas big surfaces like a sink that is integrated with the vanity counter, or a big mirror will make wiping down the surface much easier than having sinks sitting on top or an intricately designed mirror.

3 Your Style Determines The Colours and Fixtures You Choose

When looking at bathroom photos on Houzz, you’ll probably lean towards a certain style pretty soon. Are you into rustic charm, modern beach house style or a mix of styles? This will determine if you opt for whites, greys and blues or if you go for dark cabinets, black floor tiles or bronze fixtures. Specifically, you want to consider:

Tiling

Are you going to tile floors and walls? There’s so many possibilities, from your choice of tile to how they are laid. If you’re budget conscious, you may want to consider a wallpaper or paint for certain areas. A simple grey tile can make room for other elements to shine, while mosaics or a subway tile can make a great feature wall.

Lighting

Lighting doesn’t only look pretty, but can impact your bathroom experience significantly. The mirror is a special area you want to light well, so that you don’t miss any hair when shaving or can apply that perfect line to your eye.

Furniture & Fixtures

Pay attention to how colours of cabinets and floor can impact a room. You may want to consider a wooden floor for something different and pair it with simple white vanity and cabinets, or you may want to go for the steampunk look with bronze tubes and black walls. Consider what type of shower, bathtub (if any), toilet, sink and vanity you want. Maybe you have space for a generous spa with walk-in shower, or maybe you want a freestanding bath to be the feature of the room.
