Room Tour: Modern Country Bathroom

When designer Kelley Motschenbacher and her husband moved from their beach house in Corona del Mar to this '50s ranch in Ojai, Calif., they knew they had their work cut out for them. Inspired by the surrounding citrus farms, they decided to go for a modern country look, which she describes as "contemporary details with country thrown in."

First on the project list: gutting and renovating two bathrooms. "In renovating older bathrooms, we had to go down to the studs and install new plumbing, new wiring and new insulation," Motschenbacher says. The work was worth it. Now that they are done with this phase and are moving on to the kitchen, we can take a detailed look at the guest bath, a room where the smallest of details count more than in any other place.

You may remember the beach house; to refresh your memory, their Houzz Tour is here.
