Our client wanted an accessible master bath that did not look accessible. We added a universal height toilet and a decorative grab bar that looks like a towel bar by the toilet. We also designed the counter to be shallow but long, providing accessibility as well as functional surface space, plus an attractive aesthetic! To add to the appeal of the overall bath space we invited more natural light into the small room via a new window outside the shower, and a glass panel adjacent to the window that allows the light into the shower. Glass block inside the shower contributes additional light flow and interest to the shower enclosure. The natural color palette of the room, and with touches like faux painting on the baseboard heat cover to match the walls, makes everything blend comfortably together and gives a clean, seamless and calming backdrop to the room.
