The homeowners were eager to infuse their new residence with a style that resonated with their modern aesthetic sensibilities. The primary bathroom, while spacious and structurally impressive with its dramatic high ceilings, presented a dated, overly traditional appearance that clashed with their vision.

Design objectives:

• Transform the space into a serene, modern spa-like sanctuary.
• Integrate a palette of deep, earthy tones to create a rich, enveloping ambiance.
• Employ a blend of organic and natural textures to foster a connection with nature.

Design challenges:

• Take full advantage of the vaulted ceiling
• Source unique marble that is more grounding than fanciful
• Design minimal, modern cabinetry with a natural, organic finish
• Offer a unique lighting plan to create a sexy, Zen vibe

Design solutions:

• To highlight the vaulted ceiling, we extended the shower tile to the ceiling and added a skylight to bathe the area in natural light.
• Sourced unique marble with raw, chiseled edges that provide a tactile, earthy element.
• Our custom-designed cabinetry in a minimal, modern style features a natural finish, complementing the organic theme.
• A truly creative layered lighting strategy dials in the perfect Zen-like atmosphere. The wavy protruding wall tile lights triggered our inspiration but came with an unintended harsh direct-light effect so we sourced a solution: bespoke diffusers measured and cut for the top and bottom of each tile light gap.

Our collaborative effort brought this vision to life, creating a bathroom that not only meets the clients’ functional needs but also serves as a daily sanctuary. The carefully chosen materials and lighting design enable the space to shift its character with the changing light of day.
