This serene bedroom uses smoky gray textiles, warm wood tones, and black-framed mirrored closet doors to create a restrained, modern retreat with subtle contrast and texture.

Primary bathroom featuring a custom stone vanity, integrated sinks, minimalist fixtures, and a glass-enclosed shower, designed with a restrained modern aesthetic as part of this Malibu Pier condo renovation.

This primary bathroom was designed around a limited palette of gray porcelain, walnut, and matte black fixtures. Large-format porcelain slabs minimize grout lines and create a quiet, continuous backdrop, while the floating walnut vanity introduces warmth and contrast. Simple geometric forms reinforce the restrained character of the space. A rectangular integrated sink, wall-mounted faucet, and circular illuminated mirror provide visual balance without unnecessary ornamentation. The result is a modern bathroom that feels calm, functional, and thoughtfully detailed.

Bridle Path Residence — Primary Bathroom Retreat This Bridle Path Residence primary bathroom is conceived as a private spa-like retreat, combining classical architectural detailing with contemporary fixtures, expansive glazing, and a highly restrained material palette. The design prioritizes serenity and natural light while maintaining the level of craftsmanship and visual refinement established throughout the residence. The room's strongest design feature is its relationship with the outdoors. A generous bay of windows brings the surrounding mature landscape directly into the bathroom, transforming the view into an important part of the experience. Daylight washes across the pale surfaces and enhances the sense of openness, making the space feel more like a private wellness suite than a conventional bathroom. The freestanding sculptural tub is positioned directly beside the windows, creating a deliberate moment of relaxation and emphasizing the connection between bathing and the landscape. Its smooth, organic silhouette contrasts beautifully with the architectural geometry of the room, while the polished floor-mounted faucet introduces a refined contemporary detail. The shower is treated as an architectural volume rather than simply a functional enclosure. Clear frameless glass preserves visual continuity across the room and allows the large-format wall surfaces and integrated shower niche to remain visible. The minimal hardware keeps the enclosure visually light and reinforces the clean, modern character. A striking element is the geometric floor design, where dark linear insets intersect across the pale stone surface to create a sophisticated diamond-like pattern. This introduces a graphic layer beneath the otherwise quiet palette and provides a subtle connection to the more traditional detailing found elsewhere in the residence. The custom vanity continues the home's tailored millwork language. White cabinetry, refined hardware, decorative supports, and integrated mirrors create a furniture-like composition rather than a generic bathroom installation. The large mirror amplifies the natural light and visually expands the room, while the sculptural upholstered stool adds softness and a touch of traditional glamour. The material palette is intentionally restrained: luminous white surfaces, pale stone, crisp millwork, polished metal, and touches of dark detailing. This restraint allows architectural form, daylight, and the surrounding landscape to become the primary sources of visual interest. Overall, the bathroom represents timeless luxury interpreted through a contemporary lens. Traditional millwork and geometric stone detailing provide character, while frameless glass, sculptural plumbing fixtures, and the freestanding tub introduce modern simplicity. The result is an elegant, highly personalized primary bathroom designed to feel restorative, spacious, and quietly luxurious.

Bridle Path Residence — Primary Bedroom Suite This Bridle Path Residence primary bedroom is designed as a quietly luxurious private retreat, balancing the architectural formality of the home with a softer, more intimate residential atmosphere. The space demonstrates how classical detailing can be paired with expressive colour, layered textiles, and contemporary lighting to create a bedroom that feels both elegant and personal. The architecture establishes a calm, cohesive backdrop. Crisp white wall panelling, substantial crown moulding, and a carefully detailed recessed ceiling create a sense of proportion and permanence. Rather than competing with the furnishings, these architectural elements provide a restrained framework that allows texture, colour, and light to become the defining layers. A custom fireplace creates an architectural focal point within the bedroom. Its clean, linear treatment is deliberately understated, allowing the fire itself to introduce warmth and atmosphere without overwhelming the room. The fireplace also visually connects the bedroom to the adjoining sitting area, creating a sense of continuity across the suite. The recessed ceiling is an important design feature. Layered moulding frames the central ceiling plane, while concealed perimeter lighting creates a soft architectural glow. This indirect illumination gives the room a warmer evening character and highlights the geometry of the ceiling without relying solely on decorative fixtures. The upholstered bed provides a substantial yet comfortable centrepiece. Its tall, softly rounded headboard introduces a tactile quality against the crisp architectural envelope, while the layered bedding and collection of jewel-toned cushions bring personality into the otherwise neutral setting. Colour is used selectively but confidently. Deep fuchsia, sapphire blue, plum, and charcoal accents create a sophisticated jewel-tone palette that contrasts with the white architecture and pale textiles. These richer colours make the room feel curated and expressive while maintaining an overall sense of serenity. The adjoining sitting area extends the bedroom beyond its sleeping function. A pair of sculptural upholstered chairs and a richly coloured ottoman create a small private lounge, allowing the suite to function as a complete retreat rather than simply a bedroom. Artwork introduces another layer of personality and creates a visual transition between the two spaces. The hardwood flooring provides warmth and continuity, grounding the predominantly light palette and connecting the bedroom with the rest of the residence. The combination of wood, upholstered surfaces, reflective accents, architectural millwork, and soft lighting creates a carefully balanced sensory experience. Overall, the design is an expression of refined residential luxury with a more personal and intimate character. Classical millwork establishes timelessness, while jewel-toned textiles, sculptural furnishings, contemporary lighting, and curated artwork prevent the room from feeling overly traditional. The result is a sophisticated primary suite designed for comfort, privacy, and understated glamour.

Primary Bathroom : Wet Room with Island Tub & Rubinet Fixtures | Second Floor Addition, Toronto This primary bathroom, located within the newly built second floor addition, was designed as a spa-like wet room that prioritizes calm, comfort, and refined luxury. At the center of the space is a striking island-style freestanding tub, creating a focal point that elevates the bathroom from purely functional to experiential. The wet room layout allows the tub and shower to coexist seamlessly within a waterproofed environment, offering both visual openness and practical durability. High-quality Rubinet fixtures were selected for their clean lines, precision engineering, and timeless appeal—perfectly complementing the bathroom’s modern aesthetic. Careful material selection, balanced proportions, and thoughtful detailing result in a space that feels indulgent yet restrained. Designed as part of a full-home transformation, this bathroom reflects Cedarstone Group Inc.’s expertise in second-storey additions and high-end bathroom renovations, where layout, plumbing coordination, and finish execution must work flawlessly together.

A freestanding tub positioned beneath a privacy-glazed window creates a quiet focal point within this soft contemporary primary bath.

At the tub wall, a dramatic installation of Geo Prism white marble introduces texture, movement, and contrast, transforming an otherwise restrained palette into a memorable design statement. The result is a balance of quiet luxury and visual impact—an approach that feels distinctive enough to earn recognition while remaining timeless and broadly appealing to homeowners who appreciate thoughtful, enduring design.

After searching for the perfect Paris apartment that could double as an atelier for five years, Laure Nell Interiors founder and principal Laetitia Laurent fell in love with this 415-square-foot pied-à-terre that packs a punch. Situated in the coveted Golden Triangle area in the 8th arrondissement—between avenue Montaigne, avenue des Champs-Elysées and avenue George V—the apartment was destined to be fashionable. The building’s Hausmannian architecture and a charming interior courtyard make way for modern interior architectural detailing that had been done during a previous renovation. Hardwood floors with deep black knotting, slatted wood paneling, and blue lacquer in the built-ins gave the apartment an interesting contemporary twist against the otherwise classic backdrop, including the original fireplace from the Hausmann era. Laure Nell Interiors played up this dichotomy with playfully curated furnishings and lighting found during Paris Design Week: a mid-century Tulip table in the dining room, a coffee table from the NV Gallery x J’aime tout chez toi capsule collection, and a fireside chair from Popus Editions, a Paris-London furniture line with a restrained French take on British-inspired hues. In the bedroom, black and white details nod to Coco Chanel and ochre-colored bedding keeps the aesthetic current. A pendant from Oi Soi Oi lends the room a minimalist Asian element reminiscent of Laurent’s time in Kyoto. Thanks to tall ceilings and the mezzanine loft space that had been added above the kitchen, the apartment exudes a feeling of grandeur despite its small footprint. Photos by Gilles Trillard
