For this bathroom, we opted to use a a translucent green marble that resembles glass. The walls are covered with subway-sized Carrerra marble, accented with a Ming Green pencil tile, and topped with marble chair rail.
The late 1890s pink Tennessee granite floating sink is supported by silver painted cast iron brackets to create a sense of openness. The medicine cabinet, woodwork, and shelf are also recycled pieces. The original brick chimney bisects the bathroom, adding rustic character. The fish tank toilet, complete with live plants and fish is a definite conversation piece.
This bathroom was created with the ideal space in mind. The shower features double shower heads, a large walk in stall, custom glass shower door, a bench, and white Italian statuary marble running to the ceiling. The vanity and medicine cabinet were both custom designed pieces built from burled American black walnut. The vanity pays homage to early American built-in Craftsman cabinets and is topped in white Venentino marble. To add to the architectural elements, luxuries such as radiant heated floors and a heated towel rack were added to the space.
