southern comfort - the bathroom

http://www.hfdarchitects.com

A fireplace, soaking tub and eclectic collection of found objects makes this bathroom the homeowners haven. Plenty of storage and amble counter space keeps the space tidy while the large skylight provides plenty of natural light. The separate water closet and large steam shower keeps complete the room. A pair of etched glass doors allow natural light to filter between bathroom and bedroom.

This bathroom has been published in Trends as well as Better Homes & Gardens magazines, appeared on HGTV's "I Want That Bath" and received a national design award from Residential Design Build magazine.

added by Bud Dietrich, AIA to Architect's Toolbox: Celebrate Those Happy Accidents

This was taken to a whole new level when the homeowners threw a party and used the bathroom as the bar. Beer, pop and ice filled the tub. Bottles of wine and glasses were arranged on the vanities, and there was a fire in the fireplace.Throughout the evening, the room became a place for people to grab a drink and sit on the hearth to chat. The fact that this was taking place in the master bath wasn’t an issue at all. People sauntered in and out all night long. It was as if the bathroom wasn’t a bathroom but the local lounge. Have to say I totally didn’t expect this happy accident, but I’m glad it happened.

wow! what's not to like about this bathroom!? warm brick color, wood floors, antiques, oriental rugs, nice large paintings, fire place, etc. Very nicely done! Not wild about the living room side of this but I'm really loving the bathroom side!
