Master Bathroom Renovation in Bryn Mawr

Our client for this project requested a large, roomy master bathroom in one corner of their house. The siting was particularly well-suited for a master bathroom – the bathroom area had large, ample windows on two walls and a cathedral ceiling with a skylight.
 
We began the project by inspecting and reinforcing the underlying framing; next we installed and prepared the lines for electrical wires, plumbing, and HVAC. (The master bathroom ultimately features elegant recessed lighting, including lights above the shower and above the vanity mirrors.)
 
We then proceeded to install plywood on the floor and moisture and mold-resistant drywall on the walls and ceiling. All surfaces were then prepared for the application of tile or for priming and painting.
 
We installed top-quality, luxury fixtures throughout the bathroom – a frameless glass shower and whirlpool tub were installed against one exterior wall and an enclosed bidet toilet was placed alongside the entry alcove to the bathroom. The shower features built-in mosaic-tiled cubbyholes for the storage of toiletries in addition to several curved stone shelves. The entryway to the bidet toilet features an airy ventilation-slat door with a transom window. We also installed an ornate double-sink vanity with recessed lighting and a polished stone countertop against the second exterior wall.
 
The final color scheme exudes a natural, serene, and warm atmosphere. Subdued, earth-toned colors were used for the varyingly-patterned tiles on the supporting base of the whirlpool tub, on the lower halves of the walls, and on the shower walls and floor. Similar colors were used on the diamond-patterned floor tiles, and the sheetrock walls in the other areas of the bathroom were painting in a similarly-restful scheme.
 
The cabinetry, trim, doors, window sashes and frames, electric outlet plates, and plumbing fixtures throughout the bathroom were unified via a simple white color scheme. The hardware (faucets, handles, hinges, vanity knobs, shower equipment, grab-bars, rods, towel racks, etc.) are unified with a dark gray brushed-metal finish, lending a bit of contrast to the otherwise warm, restful master bathroom.
