A Tale Of Transformation

Step back in time as we revisit the transformation of an outdated 1980s primary bathroom. Originally, the space reflected an era long past with dull finishes and dated fixtures. Meanwhile, the rest of the home had already undergone thoughtful renovations. However, this final space remained untouched and ready for change.

Poor lighting limited functionality, and outdated materials diminished the room’s potential. Therefore, the homeowner decided it was time to complete the home’s evolution. Our goal was clear. We would elevate the space with modern luxury and timeless design.

The Challenge: Updating Without Relocating

One major challenge quickly emerged. The client wanted to avoid relocating plumbing fixtures. At the same time, they aimed to maintain budget discipline while achieving meaningful transformation.

As a result, the design required precision and creative problem-solving.
Instead of reworking infrastructure, we maximized the existing layout.
By collaborating closely with our in-house designer, Ronda Lane, we developed a refined plan.

Consequently, the updated design enhanced flow, lighting, and material selection without structural relocation. Through careful planning and thoughtful detailing, we delivered a modern primary suite that felt entirely reimagined.

The Design Process: From Idea to Reality

The design process began in August 2014, with the client’s initial idea and a budget of $50,000. As we collaborated with the client and explored different options, the design evolved to include additional features and materials, resulting in a construction cost of $72,500. This is a testament to our commitment to open communication and the importance we place on meeting our client’s needs and desires.

The Results: A Lively, Enjoyable Bath

The end result of this master bathroom transformation is truly remarkable. The dreary space has been replaced with a lively, enjoyable bath that exudes luxury and style. One of the key features of the new design is the extended niche, which provides ample storage space and includes a corner bench for added comfort. A pony wall conceals the shower area, creating a sense of privacy and relaxation. The shower itself is a full-body experience, complete with a beautiful frameless glass enclosure.

The vanity area has been transformed for storage and functionality. The addition of sconces and under cabinet motion lights adds a warm and inviting glow to the space. The highlight of the vanity is a center tower that houses an electrical outlet with USB ports, allowing for convenient charging of electronic devices. The tub, which had previously been an eyesore, is now surrounded by increased storage and finished in the same rich color as the vanity. A niche accent piece with glass shelving adds a touch of elegance and provides additional storage space.
