Maureen's Ensuite

In this ensuite bathroom, we were tasked with reusing as many of the existing elements as possible: toilet, tub, and both vanities. Everything else, including the position of the fixtures, was up for grabs!
Project Year: 2016
Project Cost: $10,001 - $25,000

This is the other vanity in the space, Lots of angles to deal with in this room. Tub was also staying, but getting a facelift.

She is short, he is tall, hence the two showerheads set to their own height.

The vanities were each 48" wide, so with the desire for wall sconces on either side of a mirror, we realized the mirrors would have to be rather narrow to fit between the lights, so we decided to mirror most of the wall above each vanity, and mount the lights directly onto the mirror.
