What you're asking for ais an entire interior design package on Houzz :) I would suggest you call an interior designer in your area. You may need a lot of help sourcing fixtures, tiles, light fixtures, colors, etc. I would probably off hand suggest a modern free standing bath tub - Kohler and Kallista make some beautiful ones. I'd keep all your fixtures white and chrome or brushed nickel. Best of luck to you! Houzz has an excellent professionals directory to start you off in your search.

You have an extensive collection of bathroom images in your ideabook. Perhaps using something more light and clean would give a more modern feel.

Unfortunately you are the only person that knows what is 'cool' and 'awesome' for you own bathroom.

It looks like you Idea Book has a variety of images, and you gravitate towards white. I always think it is really cool to use entire slabs of Calcutta Gold or Carrara marble on Walls and Floors, and bright white toilets, sinks and tubs always look clean, then using cool materials like zinc or polished chrome for fixtures and teak for vanities, and shelving. This is not a kind of project I would start experimenting with finishes on my own, if I were you, get an interior designer that specializes in Kitchen and Baths to help you design this. It will be money well spent. Look into TOTO and Bain Ultra for fixtures and Grohe and Waterworks.

Thank you for your suggestion. I feel very "wish washy" (is that a word?) and maybe an interior designer is a good idea. Any idea what that would cost me for a project like this?

Here are some images of what I personally think is lovely for a bathroom of that scale...

I don't know but I'll bet someone can give you a good idea. :=)

In the meantime; research spas. Find exactly what you like. Make notes. Make a list, save web links to pages. If you have power point on your computer and know how to use it, you can put together something concrete with your own ideas in there. Will help....Try to incorporate items that really grab your gut. See if you can afford at least one of them. Then, your bath will always feel like it's yours.

Nice job Aggie.

My guess is you will end up spending about 40K on the materials, if you go the all out high end route so a reasonable fee will be in a 6-8K range.

What do others think? I am in NYC.
