2011 NKBA Design Competition - Large Bathrooms: Third Place

With the confinement of condominium restrictions, the designer set out to give the homeowners what they wanted - a light and luxurious, functional space for two. A stone wall above the vanity and along one long wall in the wet room not only served to unify the two connected spaces but also set the tone for an elegant space. Rough raw stone is the contrary and yet cohesive partner to the smoother floor and wash basin surfaces. A large walk-in shower replaced an unneeded whirlpool tub, a bidet was removed, and zoned lighting on separate dimmers was incorporated to offer the homeowners conservation and convenience. A grander double door entrance was created as the opening to the master bedroom. A sumptuous spa was a born out of the blending of indulgent textural contrasts and a gratifying level of creature comforts.
