Can anyone please tell me the specifics in this bathroom? Countertop? Floating Vanity? Floor? Where they were purchased? What type of material they are? TIA

    Without know where the pic came from about impossible for anyone to offer more than a complete guess.

    @millworkman ...the picture is from Park and Oak Design. I have reached out to the design office and the response I received was

    "Unfortunately, we are unable to give out specifics of the design." They than went on to state they would be able to help me with a paid consultation. Hope that helps.

    I would very much guess the vanity is custom. The vanity top looks like some kind of marble? The floors not sure. But I think you could generally recreate the look with marble. I will warn you that custom vanities are wildly expensive :) we were quoted 5k generally from our contractor but I got 42 inch vanities from Costco for 500$ each :) looks like v groove for the paneling but hard to tell for sure but I love v groove anyways so I think you would be fine with that :) the plumbing with those floating vanities can be tricky — for example, it can’t be on an exterior wall — we had to run our plumbing up from the floor so those wouldn’t have even been an option for us.

    It is completely fine to take an inspo pic — most of the time everything in that pic can’t be recreated for you anyways and not everyone can spend 120k on a bathroom :) it doesn’t mean your bathroom can’t look very nice. Here are my 500$ vanities and I am perfectly satisfied with them. I designed my bathroom myself with a little help from my contractors designers on staff (they did layout and ordered things but did not select every item but had to approve everything I selected to make sure it worked.) it was honestly exhausting and I’m not sure I would do it again lol but I don’t think every bathroom needs a designer involved to make every decision.

    I agree that the design is a custom vanity.


    My cabinets were custom and the doors and style were *inspired* by cabinets I had liked on the web.


    If you have the budget it would not be a particularly difficult design to "duplicate" - or more accurately show to your designer as your inspiration. That is pretty much how a collaboration with a designer works.


    Custom vanity and marble counters - fairly generic faucets - and marble tile floors. I would be hesitant to have large marble tiles in my floor because of issue of slipperiness so make sure they are safe when damp or your feet are damp.


    The rest of the bathroom is probably up to the same level of design.

    And many contractors can help you find someone to do a custom vanity — my contractors actually did them in house as well as kitchen cabinets so their projects took a lot less time than many that are happening right now. You could def show someone an inspo pic to help create the look you want

    @Beth H. :I was guessing marble partly based on the designers -- they use alot of it and do high end projects but it could def be porcelain too. i follow them on IG, and they do have beautiful designs @edithn00. You could also use porcelain look alike marble if on a tighter budget. My husband is a litigator and you are completely fine. If you to try to make some money off of this bathroom in some way and copied it exactly, then you might have to worry. But alot of this is going to fall under fair use. I am guessing most of us aren't going to have our bathrooms featured in magazines lol -- you are completely fine @edithn00 And you never even said that you wanted to know to recreate the look to do it in your own bath. BTW most designers wont even share the paint color on a project unless its featured in a mag or something.

    Erika,,

    My husband is a litigator and you are completely fine. If you to try to make some money off of this bathroom in some way and copied it exactly, then you might have to worry.

    why is this a legal issue? I don't see anywhere that she wanted to copy it exactly and claim it as hers? Even if she did want to duplicate the room exactly,it's fine as long as she's not passing it off as her own design to make money.

    As for the marble, yes it probably is. But porcelain is also being used for vanity tops. in fact, one could save a lot of money and buy a tile, 24x48 or 24x60" large format porcelain tile, and have it fabricated to use as a vanity top. You'd have to come up w/something for the edges, but it's a great idea to save money.

    super easy and cheap to do if you have a smaller vanity


    matte finish porcelain


    they did the two tiles here on the kitchen countertop

    @Beth H. :I That's a very good question (it wasnt directed at you). I dont think it is either but someone (read further up) mentioned "plagiarizing a copyrighted design" (implying a legal issue because she would be infringing on copyright), and then mentioned 120k bathrooms as if this is in the reach of 99% of Americans. I felt like there was no reason for the OP to feel she did anything wrong by asking about this look or wanting to imitate it or feel like she needs to spend that amount of money on a bathroom (although of course location dependent for budget):) It felt quite absurd to me tbh and not very kind. Snarkiness is one thing but implying the OP is doing something legally wrong, good grief. I didnt want her or anyone who reads this to worry about it.
