Urban Spa
This charming urban home had plenty of character, but not much room for expansion in the bathroom or leeway in the budget. A little space borrowed from the landing and a lot of imagination, however, made the resulting 70 sf comfortably fit a large air-jet tub, shower, stool, beauty table, and vanity.

We created three distinct spa environments using tile and color. The wet-area entices by setting an invigorating tone, while the stool space is more subdued, and the vanity-beauty area remains quiet and pristine.

Several angles on the ceiling and in the tilework set up a versatlie geometry, for a look that changes as you move through the space. The curves of the half-wall help to balance the angular composition, while the light fixtures, tile, Nepal blue countertop, and hand-sanded Pella window give it an organic, old world feel.
