How is the wall on the right of sink done? - Is there a niche there also? »
· Comment · 5 months ago
Savena Doychinov, CKD/Design Studio International scdubose, there is no niche on the right side of the sink (the bathroom is only 7' 6" X 5'), but there's one on the wall opposite the toilet. You can see it reflected in the mirror.

light fixture - Also, what light fixtures did you use around the mirror? And finally, do you think this concept would still work if I used a rectangular mirror since I need a medicine cabinet - preferably recessed. Thank you again. »

Savena Doychinov, CKD/Design Studio International Pholloway, the pendants I used in this project are made by WAC Lighting, but it's important to note that they work well in front of the large stationary mirror, because their light is reflected by it. If you install a medicine cabinet, the pendants can not be in front of it, but on both sides and then you'll not get as much light from these
particular fixtures, as their light will not be reflected by the mirrored door of the cabinet. Also, if you're concerned about the cost, these pendants are low voltage and require a transformer. So not only the the system will cost more, but the installation will as well. You'll also have to devote space for the transformer that may be better used for storage. Perhaps it would be best to look at other options.

Such a nice use of the space - My main and only bathroom is small like this one except my sink and toilet are reversed and I have a tub and like to use a shower curtain.Did you tile all the way to the ceiling all round the room? I have a lower ceiling at 7'4" and think it would look better with all tile. Also is the counte top the same material as the wall tile. Thank you. Any ideas are appreciated. »

Savena Doychinov, CKD/Design Studio International Hi pholloway, I'm glad you like this bathroom. It's one of my favorite projects. Yes, we tiled all the walls to the ceiling and I agree with you that it would look best to do the same in your bathroom too. The tiles are custom cut shapes and sizes of Casablanca Limestone and the countertop is made from a slab of the same stone. In such a small space it's better not to use too many different materials. Obviously, if you use porcelain tiles on the walls, your countertop can be fabricated from similar natural stone or man
made quartz surface. My suggestion is to call/visit local countertop fabricators to see if somebody will have a remnant of the material you would like to use. Good luck!

Who makes the green shower tile and what is the style name. »

Savena Doychinov, CKD/Design Studio International drich1, this tile was purchased by the client from a company in California that's no longer in business.
You may want to research glass tile manufacturers to see if anybody makes something similar. If not and you really want that look, perhaps you can find a company to make you custom tiles.
Hope this helps! Good luck with your project.

What are the dimensions on this bathroom? »
· Comment · 15 months ago
Savena Doychinov, CKD/Design Studio International Dear Liese, I'm so glad you like this bathroom. Does your hall bath has the same layout?
Will you replace the existing tub with a shower? That's what I did here. Simple math tells me that if you have 7' or 84" long wall, the tub takes 30", the toilet by code needs 30'', so what's feft for the vanity is 24''width. That's little too small for vessel sink, as you wouldn't
have a lot of surface to put your cosmetics, etc. on. That's why I extended the countertop
in the niche over and behind the toilet's tank (some complicated rerouting of the toilet's vent pipe was done) and that prevented me from using an in-wall tank system (too tall)
and wall hung toilet, in addition to other factors. The vanity in this bathroom is 30'' wide and the sink is 18''D. This photo was taken from the door - very close to the sink and it looks larger this way. That gives you an idea about the proportion which works very well
in this space. If what I'm assuming about the vanity's width (or future teak ledge) is correct - 24''W - than a 14''D glass sink is the right size. However, there are many other factors to think about when remodeling a 60's bathroom, that you may want to consider trying to find an experienced professional bathroom designer in your area to help you
pull it together. Ideally, you would want to end up with a bathroom that looks professionally designed, it maximixes the potential of the space both functionally and
visually (as the design of this bathroom does), it will be joy to use for years to come and it's a true asset to your home.
I hope this is helpful information. Good luck with your project!

What Houzz contributors are saying:
4. Use space above the toilet for open or closed storage. The red accent wall adds depth and a focal point.
