So when I want to really focus on something I come up to the woods. This place in Brevard is perfect for that. Quite, great wifi and well.. pretty. I came up this weekend to work on 6 bathrooms for a big, big project in the works for the coolest of clients. After spending a day looking at plumbing with our contractor I needed a plan - and he's barking for plumbing ! The entire house is torn apart and underway with a design plan for each room (see earlier post here) so pulling these bathrooms together was pretty fun. A cohesive look was the goal.
I started with the 1st floor powder room with a look that I felt worked with what's going to happen in main living room, kitchen, piano room and foyer. Our colors are neutral, a lot of black and white which I love. Wood to warm up and a bit of brass.
This powder room has a wall of tile behind the sink, a custom vanity - furniture like - and two wall scones I have always loved. Clean and simple is the name of the game.
A nice tie back to the family room colors and feel.
The master bathroom will keep the same current layout but we've gutted it. Working again with the look and feel of the house and the plan for the master bedroom we picked this killer black and white tub. I added wall tile half the way up. A white subway but its long 3 x 12 and slightly irregular as not to look "new." It has a old feel to it which I love.
The vanities - a wood with white quartz counter tops, drop in sinks and pretty brass Newport Brass faucets. More tile up the wall with a black accent piece.
When it came to mirrors and lighting I wanted something simple but "vintage." Love these. The floors also have a slight vintage feel and great pattern.
My client loved the heart detail on the wall in one of her inspiration images so let's put in the shower in white and black penny tile. To keep it from being to much a simple charcoal tile on the floor.
I feel it ties back perfectly with the master bedroom.
On to the upstairs. There is a jack and jack bathroom connecting the two boys rooms. We picked a black faucet and I worked my way around that. A floating wood vanity to fill one wall with lower shelf, grey quartz counter top and drop in sinks. One large black metal mirror and two brass and black sconces. This wall tile is a budget friendly one 3/4 the ways up and a little more charcoal slate... keeping an eye on the budget !
Should work well with their rooms !
Now we have their oldest daughter's bath. She has great taste and ... and an opinion. We are doing primarily whites in her room with a little touch of blush. This bath will have a blush vanity and a more vintage faucet in brass. The lucite and brass mirror ties to the bed and I love these new sconces with their curve.
The wall is a tile, to the ceiling with a marble look. With small gout lines it feels like a slab. Rather than grey I chose the warmer version. Fingers crossed on this one !
Bathroom no. 5 is brand new. What once was just a bedroom will be a large walk in bathroom shared by two other little girls.
I started my design in here with the striped penny tile on the floor. Love that.. A long vanity in wood with again white quartz counter and 2 drop sinks. My client loves these sconces so I thought this space would be good for them !
Opposite the sink wall I thought about adding a little paper.. love this but we may opt for a little more color in there !!! Forget the towel bars.. hooks are way better.
and ok.. I thought the bunny was funny !
Lastly the basement bath. Small and simple off the large TV room and sliders to the pool. Very simple with a wood tile floor in a white washed faux wood. Floating vanity with a combination of white and wood and a little more wood detail on the 1 walls. Wall mount faucet and fun mirror finish it off.
With 5 kids.. really love the inspiration of the no 5.. think maybe we'll have to paint that on the side walls.
Um... what a fun time playing with all this in the calm, pretty mountains. Guess it's time to head home before everyone thinks I have ditched them for good.
Happy Monday !
