Small Spaces - Bathroom Redesign

Country: Canada
Zip Code: K1Z 7P1
We created a very soft and calming environment for this family. With two very active young boys, I felt that at the end of the day, it should be a place to relax into the evening.

I think this photo speaks for itself, in that this bathroom is in desperate need for an update.

We removed the bathroom door and installed a pocket door. This really made a huge difference in what we were able to achieve for storage planning and allowing for more overall space in this room.

Because we pushed the wall back and we installed a standard sized tub, we had to decide what to do with that excess 4" so we build a ledge below the faucet for toiletries to make use of this extra space.

There was a large shelf mounted high up on the wall to avoid contact with the door, because they really needed to find a way to create more storage options.

You can see here that we added a built in medicine chest opposite the vanity. This provides them with so much more room for overstock. And because it is built in, we don't loose any space inside the bathroom.

We chose this shower head because of its multi function hose attachment. This design is especially nice in that, the hose attachment fits right inside of the shower head eliminating the bar attachment. We wanted to avoid as much visual clutter as possible.

The shower niche was added for extra storage, and we decided to add one shelf so that there was enough height for larger bottles. Another shelf can always be added later if the need arises.

We installed a new window with a Carrara Marble ledge that we slopped ever so slightly to avoid water damning.

This vanity is too large for this space. It takes over the toilet area and occupies a lot of the foot print of the entire bathroom.

We had to downsize the vanity so that it didn't overpower the room and also to leave the right amount of space around the toilet. This was a concern for our client because of their storage issues.

Wish I had of taken the bath mat out of the bathroom for a better look at the floor tile we selected.

Choosing the right finishes is not always as easy as it may seem. I love this faucet by Moen!

This corner cabinet was used for overstock. What an awkward cupboard.

To create more space for storage, we took an extra 4' from the inside of the wall so that we could deepen the cupboards. This allowed us to fit towels in the cabinet.

I found these door knobs and fell in love. Our clients really love all of the elements of the earth. I thought these knobs with the water bubble effect was a nice compliment to the design. It also softens the look of the cabinet and helps to eliminate that cluttered look.

I love this niche! We decided to add pot lights for ambiance as well as extra lighting. It also makes for an excellent night light for the kids and when entertaining.
