This bathroom needed to be totally wheelchair accessible for the client, who has very limited mobility. The sink is at the correct level for her to roll underneath and not hit her knees on the pipes. The custom terrazzo countertop has an integrated zero-entry sink for easy access. Sara Hanna Photography

The conversion of a tub to shower has become increasingly popular as many people prefer the convenience and accessibility of a shower over a bathtub. It is a common remodeling project in guest bathrooms, especially for those with limited mobility or those who simply prefer showers.

This zero-step shower with an extra-wide opening is attractive and allows easy access to a person with limited mobility.

The client purchased this property with grand plans of renovating the entire place; from top to bottom, and from inside to outside. And while the inside canvas was very generous and even somewhat forgiving, the outside space would be anything but. We wanted to squeeze in as much seating space as possible in their limited courtyard area, without encroaching on the already compact-sized pool. The first and most obvious solution was to get rid of the trees and shrubs that separated this house from its zero-lot-line neighbor. With the addition of Lueder limestone slabs, this alone would free up nearly 120 additional square feet, which happened to be the perfect amount of space for a mobile gas fire pit and sectional sofa. And all of this would make for the perfect place to enjoy the afternoon sunset with the implementation of a custom-built metal pergola standing above it all. The next problem we saw was that around the patio area, there were too many levels of steps and stairs, which meant that it would have been difficult to have any sort of traditional furniture arrangement. Randy knew that it only made sense to bring in a wood deck that could be mated to the highest level of the patio, thus creating gaining the most continuous amount of flat space that the client was wanting. But even so, that flat space would be limited to a tight "L-shape" around the pool. And knowing this, the client decided that the larger space would be more valuable to them than the spa, so they opted to have a portion of the deck built over it in order to allow for a more generous amount of patio space. And with the edge of the patio/deck dropping off almost 2 feet to the waterline, it now created the perfect opportunity to have a visually compelling raised wall that could be adorned with different hues of plank-shaped tiles. From inside the pool, the varying shades of brown were a great accent to the wood deck that sat just above. However, the true visual crowning jewel of this project would end up being the raised back wall along the fence, fully encased in a large format, 24x24 slate grey tile, complete with a custom stainless steel, square-tube scupper bank, installed at just the right height to create the perfect amount of water noise. But Randy wasn't done just yet. With two entirely new entertaining areas opened up at opposite ends of the pool, the only thing left to do now was to connect them. Knowing that he nor the client wanted to eliminate any more water space, he decided to bring a new traffic pattern right into the pool by way of two "floating", Lueder limestone stepper pads. It would be a visually perfect union of both pool and walking spaces. The existing steps and walkways were then cut away and replaced with matching Lueder limestone caps and steppers. All remaining gaps were then filled with Mexican beach pebble, which helped to promote a very "zen-like" feel in this outdoor space. The interior of the pool was coated with Wet Edge Primerastone "Blue Pacific Coast" plaster, and lit up with Pentair GloBrite LED pool lights. In the end, the client ended up gaining the additional entertaining and seating space that they needed, and the updated, modern feel that they loved.

This custom master bathroom was build specifically for a client with limited mobility. The focus was accessible storage and function completed with quality craftsmanship and design.

Universal design principle were incorporated throughout the first floor of the home. ADA compliant thresholds were used and space was arranged to accommodate a wheelchair. The first floor guest suite was designed for a family member with limited mobility. Photos: Jon M Photography

This bathroom is designed for a client who has the beginning stages of limited mobility. They chose not have a traditional sink vs a lower wheel chair accessible one. The sower is wheel chair accessible. They realize they may update again in their future should their mobility be more limited.
