This project was so much fun! This growing family of 3 wanted to transform their open-concept master suite by updating the ensuite. With carefully selected finishes and colour palettes to move them from dark and dreary to bright and beautiful. We found the perfect tile to display a great herringbone pattern with complimentary textured tile for the backsplash around the tub. The radiant heat floor in the ensuite will keep little toes warm in the winter. The carefully crafted 10 ft, floating, double vessel vanity allows ample space for use by family members - all at the same time! The beautiful wood used in the vanity was duplicated in the master bedroom when we created a floating shelf to be used as a TV console. It was important to hide cords and wires from the wee ones. New black-out draperies will allow this family to catch a few extra winks during extended daylight hours.

Rancho Cucamonga, A Traditional Kitchen paired with an Eclectic Master Bath

Classic Kitchens, Etc.

We finish off our remodel with a beautiful, all new master bathroom. Making more room inside the shower meant rebuilding a wall, but in doing so, we created a 36” open space within the glass enclosure. Finishing the shower walls with elongated subway tiles in teal, and a few white tiles for accent pieces. A vertical glass mosaic accent piece decorates the space nicely. This shower has all the bells and whistles. Three grab bars, a shower seat made of the same Cambria slab as the countertops, a 3 bay shower niche on the back wall, and a single shower niche near the multi-function, adjustable hand shower head. The flooring of the shower is a safe, 2x2 anti-slip flooring for safety and décor. The cabinets in the space are a custom made, rare upper cabinet and lower cabinet combo. Again, real Alder wood cabinets, these however are stained in a cinnamon color, with shaker doors and slab drawers. Continuing with the eclectic feel, we have brushed gold handles, and a polished nickel Moen faucet. Finishing the space with a custom made mirror atop the same glass mosaic that is in the brand new shower.

Bathroom Design Ideas with Medium Wood Cabinets and Laminate Floors

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.
