Elegant First-Floor Guest Bath
Dynamic tile patterns come together seamlessly to provide a luxurious en suite guest bathroom on the first floor of this newly renovated house.
Subway tiles line the shower walls while small hexagonal tiles make up the shower floor. Carrara marble surrounds the deep soaking tub and also serves as the counter and backsplash to a large rectangular surface mounted sink. The floor tile pulls the whole room together playing off the color of the vanity and all of the other textures and tones in the room. The sink is a 47.25″ Vero by Duravit with a Newport Brass faucet. The hand shower is Bossini by Rohl in polished chrome. The wall sconce is Dara Single Sconce by Visual Comfort in a polished nickel with a white glass shade.
