Before: The bathroom is a modest 50 square feet, and with double sinks and a tub-shower combo, there wasn’t much elbow room. “The room was dark, and consequently it felt much smaller,” the designer says. They also needed to replace the window. “The clients really wanted to brighten the space and provide a pleasant experience for their guests,” Hay says.Find a bathroom remodeling professional near you

5. Guest Bath Goes From Dark to LightBathroom at a GlanceWho uses it: GuestsLocation: Barrie, OntarioSize: 50 square feet (4.6 square meters)Designer: Laura HayBefore: This hall bathroom had served the four sons of a Barrie, Ontario, couple just fine while they were growing up. But after the last of the sons moved out, the couple wanted to give the space a grown-up makeover for guests. They wanted the look to be relaxing and to flow with the rest of the traditional style of their home. And while they asked designer Laura Hay to lighten things up, they weren’t interested in an all-white space.
