Luxe Glam Primary Suite
This condo’s existing primary bath was “fine,” but a bit underwhelming. It was a sea of beige, with very little personality or drama. The client is very well traveled, and wanted the space to feel luxe and glamorous, like a bath in a fine European hotel.
Design objectives:
Add loads of beautiful high end finishes
Create drama and contrast
Create luxe showering and bathing experiences
Improve storage for toiletries and essentials
Design challenges:
Unable to reconfigure layout due to location in the high rise
Seek out unique, dramatic tile materials
Introduce “BLING”
Find glamorous lighting
Design solutions:
Tub upgrade: Keep existing layout, with change from built in to free-standing tub
Marble focus: Gorgeous Calacatta gold marble was our inspiration
Stunning tilework: Ornate Art deco marble mosaic tiles turns the wall surrounding the vanity into a focal point — satin gold accents create a dramatic shimmer
Light sparkle: Glass and crystal light fixtures add the needed sparkle
After the remodel began, our client’s vision for her bath took a turn that was inspired by a trip to Paris. Initially, the plan was a modest design to allocate resources for her kitchen’s marble slabs… but then she had a vision while admiring the marble bathroom of her Parisian hotel.
She was determined to infuse her bathroom with the same sense of luxury. They went back to the drawing board and started over with all-marble.
Her new stunning bath space radiates glamour and sophistication. The “bling” flows to her bedroom where we matched the gorgeous custom wall treatment that mimics grasscloth on an accent wall. With its marble landscape, shimmering tile and walls, the primary bath’s ambiance creates a swanky hotel feel that our client adores and considers her sanctuary.
