This Zen-like contemporary master bathroom is unique in many ways. From the large free-standing Roman tub within the oversized shower stall to the floating wall-hung extra wide custom vanity cabinet with custom polished concrete trough sink and teak inserts this bathroom is a stand-out. There is glass everywhere from the frosted tempered glass backsplash to the miniature subway glass wall tiles lining the large L-shaped niche area set within the shower to the frosted transom light set into the wall above the entrance (not shown). The floor of the bathroom and walls of the shower area are large 2' x 2' grey textured ceramic tiles with the appearance of concrete. Photography by Max Sall
