The renovated bath offers a warm, midcentury modern aesthetic, with spa-like amenities. To compensate for the bathroom’s lack of natural light, a central portion of the ceiling was lowered with cove lighting added to create the impression of sunlight filtering down. The technique serves to visually heighten the room and make the ceiling look taller. An open-concept zero-threshold shower visually enlarges the room and physically enlarges the area dedicated to the shower.

Small bathroom spaces without windows can present a design challenge. Our solution included selecting a beautiful aspen tree wall mural that makes it feel as if you are looking out a window. To keep things light and airy we created a custom natural cedar floating vanity, gold fixtures, and a light green tiled feature wall in the shower.

A dark, windowless full bathroom gets the glamour treatment. Clad in wallpaper on the walls and ceiling, stepping into this space is like walking onto a cloud.

The Cabico vanity cabinetry in the paint color “Chantilly” and the Silestone “Lusso” quartz countertop immediately make the windowless bathroom lighter and brighter. Mirabelle “Myers” undermount sinks and Kohler “Margaux” chrome widespread faucets keep the look updated without being too contemporary for the space. A mirror frame was created from Cabico moulding to match the cabinet doorstyle and “Chantilly” color. Top Knobs “Ascendra” knobs and pulls were used on the vanity. Two “Kolt” vanity lights from Quoizel provide ample lighting over the vanity sinks. Benjamin Moore “Shaker Beige” paint adds to the calm feeling of this bathroom. The “Crema Marfil” marble floor tile brings this beautiful bathroom together.

The Master Bathroom's dramatic cabinet color is balanced with a mix of muted colors and natural materials. The symmetry and simple shapes keep the space light and fun.

The remodeling of the kitchen and bathroom forms the core of this interior renovation. The existing peninsula design and cabinetry broke up the ‘great room’ and stood the kitchen as a distinct element within the room. Our design strategy operates more on a principle of integration. As such, we created a galley condition with a spine of cabinetry and appliances that anchors to the long wall of the room. The feature design element is the solid Caesarstone backsplash which appears to be carved from the wall itself. The particular challenge in the windowless bathroom was how to create an inviting, expanded sense of depth without a resulting cave-like feel. Removal of a half wall, soffit and tub unified the space overall. We reinforced the unification with the deployment of a single large format tile spec. Smaller details such as touch latch cabinetry hardware and flush conditions between tile, wall and mirror further the principle that simpler is bigger, deeper and more inviting. We were also charged with elevating what was a pedestrian 1990’s townhouse to something more sophisticated and engaging. Our approach was to first remove builder grade detailing around windows and railings. Then, we introduced simplified profiles and glass guardrails that would extend a consistency established in the new kitchen and bathroom designs. photo by Scott Hargis

The look and feel was completely updated with a new Cabico vanity in the stain “Ethiopia,” an LG Viatera “Clarino” quartz countertop, white Mirabelle “Myers” rectangular sink and a Delta “Dryden” faucet. The same Top Knobs “Ascendra” hardware used in the Master Bath were used in this bathroom, but in brushed nickel. A Hudson Valley “Keswick”sconce in satin nickel adds much-needed light to this windowless bathroom.

A typical post-1906 Noe Valley house is simultaneously restored, expanded and redesigned to keep what works and rethink what doesn’t. The front façade, is scraped and painted a crisp monochrome white—it worked. The new asymmetrical gabled rear addition takes the place of a windowless dead end box that didn’t. A “Great kitchen”, open yet formally defined living and dining rooms, a generous master suite, and kid’s rooms with nooks and crannies, all make for a newly designed house that straddles old and new.
