Hi everyone,

We are renovating the only bathroom in our 1910 Craftsman - I thought I had a strong idea of what I wanted, but now that the rubber is hitting the road with ordering, I'm losing my nerve and could use some design wisdom from this group! Our home has many of the original architectural details, and I'd really like the bathroom to have a period feel. However, we decided early on that we had to go with a vanity rather than a console or pedestal sink because it's the only bathroom and 5 people live in our house. We are adding space the only way we are able to - bumping the wall where the current vanity is into the adjacent bedroom ~2 feet, but toilet and tub are staying in their current locations. I'm trying to finalize tile and vanity options and finding myself really unsure which direction to go in - I feel like freestanding sink is what makes a period bathroom, and now I feel lost in the design weeds. Do I still try to stay faithful to period details? Do I say forget it and just go for some funky mix of styles? Our fixtures are unlacquered brass - a wall mounted faucet and exposed pipe shower/tub filler, and I do have a white shaker vanity on order that would be fully built into the space we are bumping out (I don't want to be cleaning tiny crevices on the sides). These are the questions I keep running over:

- Is the vanity going to look too boxy/imposing fully built in? Should I go back to the drawing board with a console sink and some sort of tall linen storage closet? More sink counter space seems practical to me, but I'm worried about how large the vanity will be in such a small space

- What floor do we do here? I'm waffling between a marble/black rosette pattern, this green and white marble mosaic, or something more period-standard like 1" penny or hex tile in white. The floor space is incredibly small, only about 60"x60" and I wonder if we should just do one field of tile rather than any pattern.

- How should I handle the wall faucet? Initially my idea was to run 3x6" subway at chair rail height around the room and have the faucet coming out of that, but now I'm also considering having it built into a taller marble backsplash (we have a Carrara marble slab set aside for the vanity top)

Any advice on the options we're considering would be so helpful to me! I'm caught in complete indecision, especially since this is such an expensive project and I want to get it right! Thanks for reading this long post if you've gotten so far. I've attached a pic of the current bathroom (will be totally gutted), as well as a few of my unskilled mood board mockups of different options I'm considering.
