Grown Up Glam Guest Bath

Today we’re looking at a guest bathroom that started out as a laundry room and full bath combined. The client wanted a nice-looking and functional guest bathroom, so we divided the space into two separate rooms, working around the existing skylight to give the bathroom a ton of natural light.

Light was actually a very important aspect in the guest bath for the client, so we incorporated an LED medicine cabinet for both its storage and extra recessed lighting, and brought in gold sconces to bring out the client’s glam side.

The vanity is in this nook where the washer and dryer used to be.

We wanted to fit a full tub in this bathroom to make it feel like a serene getaway at a luxurious hotel, so we placed it in the center of the room. We included double doors on the shower/bath combo so that you wouldn’t feel caged in should you want to unwind at the end of the day with a bubble bath. We added brass details to match the vanity.

To keep the palette simple, clean, and fresh, we used a textured subway tile in the shower and behind the vanity. For an added layer of texture and interest, we chose a grey, geometric wallpaper, and to tie everything together and ground the space, we went with a black floor. Because of the cool tones of the tile and wallpaper, we brought in some natural wood with the cherry vanity and matched the floating shelves in the nook to the vanity to warm it up.
