bathroom remodel

Inside the shower, a generously sized niche provides lots of space for shampoo and soaps. The controls for the shower are at the left, which allows a warmup of the water without getting wet first. The shower floor is pebbles with natural stone on all walls

It's hard to know whether that vanity or the shower is the star here. The shower benefits from a relocated and re-sized window, which provides a narrow, obscured-glass peek of natural light, while illuminated from above with a new solar-powered operable skylight. It is full depth, using all the space that had been unused with the tub installation

The finished bath benefits from a new window, with sloping sill at the tub. The previous installation was problematic. A deco line brightens the tile selection there, complimenting a new acrylic tub. The porcelain tile floor - Cronin Natif Ginepro - simulates the look of wood, bringing in rich earth tones tones mirroring the cherry cabinets

The vanity is much more functional with lots of doors and drawers, and the mirror is framed with the same material as the vanity. Cambria Canterbury counters make under-mount sinks possible and an updated electrical plan brightens this well-used bath

main floor remodel

The new cap for the fireplace is polished, blackened steel with a C-channel detail in front. The teeny tiny tile by Brix is about 1/8 x 1/8 inch but has a powerful visual impact on the living room side

Word around the office is that this is one of the most beautiful laundry rooms ever. With its own skylight, quartz counters, Bluestone Honed Brick mosaic backsplash, and maple cabinets built custom to match those in the kitchen, this is a happy place to fold clothes

Etched glass tile by Ann Sachs at the backsplash glows beneath the under-cabinet lighting. Kitchen tile ideas seattle

The large niche has plenty of room for shampoo and soap, with limestone shelves dividing the space. A small niche at the very bottom makes shaving legs easy. Seattle tile bath

The floor tile is the same limestone as the counter slab'Lagos Blue--and the tile for the shower floor is an etched Ann Sacks penny tile in a medium grey tone. The stone floors have an electric heat mat below to keep them toasty

The shower is long enough that it allowed a design without a glass door. The partition to the right helps contain spray, while the step-off area is an ideal location for the towel warmer and a robe hook. Seattle custom tile bathroom

The niche next to the shower controls provides added shelf space for soap. The niche had to be located precisely so that it would fit exactly in the vertical width of the tiles

The new floating cherry cabinets with tape lighting below help create a luxurious feel. By using lots of tile and glass, the floor plan is now completely open. Seattle custom tile bathroom

The Nyatoh door installed barn door-style reinforces the contemporary look, while subtle robe hooks to the right provide function

No more cold feet in the shower... the floor is heated here, along with the rest of the room. The dual shower heads work via a diverter and the three shelves in the corner and the wall cap are made from the same material as the vanity counter, Chroma Botticino. Schluter strips trim out the tile edge cleanly in metal. Seattle tile bath

Back on the main floor, the new powder bath shines. The cabinet floats off the floor, with tile running underneathon the wall. A Kohler sink is the counter as well, with a crackled finish

The new sink and faucet are contemporary, with clean lines. The countertop is Vetrazzo, a terrazzo composite with aggregate in cool blue colors. Bubble tile at the backplash bubbles up over the light switch

At the end of the countertop, the tile flows down the wall and into a pool on the floor, a unique and colorful installation

The strand bamboo floors were routered out ahead of the tile installation, then the grout was installed right up to the flooring

After seeing how great it looked at the vanity, the clients decided to repeat the pool at the tub/shower area. The results are striking. Custom tile bathroom Seattle

The cabinetry is set off visually from the subtle and beautiful tile work. The tile is sea grass limestone, cut in a field pattern for the walls and a basket weave tile pattern for the floors, custom tile Seattle

The four shelves in the corner are also made of slab sea grass. The top ones hold shampoo and soap, and the lowest one is at a convenient location for shaving legs

On the kids' side, a small closet and some hall space were captured to create an amazing large bathroom. The sink is salvaged, and the original radiator reinstalled. Two new mahogany windows match the same details as in the master bath

With a commanding spot in the bathroom and glass half walls to let the light in, the shower is both spacious and beautiful. Niches on the wall provide space for shampoo and the one at the very bottom holds the glass squeegee, and is a convenient leg up while shaving, custom tile bath Seattle

Granite counters split at each level, and a wall-mounted faucet provides interest at the vessel sink

The blue accents continue in the kids bathroom surround. The niche is a deep blue hex tile. The balance is simple subway tile. The hexagon tile bathroom on the floor also has integrated blue tile flowers
