Bathroom Inspiration | Looking For Advice | Marble, Woods & Tube Tile

I can't state you lot how excited nosotros are to truly convey our really ain bathroom.  We've been sharing our electrical current 5x8 bath amongst Emma as well as our guests for the in conclusion twosome of years - this bath volition hold upward a consummate luxury for us.   Like most things for the novel add-on that we've picked out, I convey for the most part, ever known just what nosotros want.  For the bath that agency unopen to marble, os subway scheme tile, woods vanity, polished nickel fixtures, brass pulls as well as accents as well as generally cream painted walls.  Trying to figure out where all of these finishes volition just play out is a niggling to a greater extent than difficult.   I'll utter to a greater extent than most complete choices, what I demand your assist amongst as well as to a greater extent than below.  For now, let's utter layout - something that was truly of import for me... as well as tricky.

The layout as well as pattern of the master copy chamber as well as bath was truly tough.  For starters, I wanted a lot of windows as well as natural lite inward our chamber as well as bathroom.  The exclusively solution that worked to create that occur was to set the master copy suite running along the entire dorsum side of the house.  The other problem, was trying to create the window layout on the outside function amongst what nosotros wanted on the interior.  We ended upward sacrificing unopen to vanity length to larn inward occur - which I was 100% ok with... which shocked everyone.  The structure procedure is all most compromise, as well as priority - as well as asserting yourself to your architect ; )  

I constitute (like most things during this process) that most layout designs offered upward were non what I was looking for.  It seemed similar everything was lined upward as well as force against each other.  For me, that felt likewise cramped.  As I said, I desire our bath to experience airy as well as brilliant - as well as since it is non that large of a room, I had to practise that amongst smaller scale things - no lengthy vanities or huge scale tubs as well as showers.  

Our architect assumed that I would require the 6ft vanity that most bathrooms feature, as well as told me that at that topographic point was no way nosotros could mash a master copy bath as well as chamber along the dorsum of the identify (only 29ft wide) that was lined amongst windows.  However, I knew that my vision for the bathroom, 1 amongst airy windows as well as tons of lite was much to a greater extent than of import that existence able to shop 10 years worth of onetime makeup inward my vanity.  Because Mike as well as I are pretty minimal amongst our primping, it was an tardily choice.  

Our architect also assumed that when I said tub that I meant something that would hold upward 72+ inches long amongst jets as well as bubbles as well as he told me it could never work.  My persistence paid off.   I drew it upward myself as well as included everything I wanted.  It took me forever, but totally worth it. I truly dear how the layout ended upward - it is everything I envisioned. 

Here it is.  As you lot tin see, our Master Bedroom opens upward to our bath amongst french doors.  Because neither room is likewise too big, the french doors volition create each room experience bigger.  I wanted the french doors to hold upward perfectly aligned amongst the tub nether a large window that would depict your optic inward - all the way from the bedroom.   I experience similar this volition also create the rooms experience to a greater extent than generous.  I had a vision for a article of furniture looking vanity that was non butted upward side past times side to anything else, but centered along the wall amongst windows on each side.   Mike has ever wanted a big, drinking glass door shower for every bit long every bit I tin remember, as well as hence that was also on our list. 

Here are unopen to inspiration photos that helped me communicate my vision to our architect as well as finally helped us to larn on the same page : 

I also dear the woods floors inward this photo... am I crazy?  I truly desire woods floors, but convey been told that they won't concur up.  I've seen them inward several lovely homes as well as dear the await as well as warmth they provide.  Does anyone convey whatever feedback on living amongst a woods flooring bathroom?

I'm as well as hence tempted to practise a cute wallpaper amongst a small-scale print...  I dear how charming it makes this bath look.

 

I dear the subway scheme tile as well as drinking glass door of the shower.  I also dear the woods paneling - that volition hold upward a determination made afterward inward the procedure 1 time nosotros run into how the balance of the budget is asset upward during construction.

Here is a really elegant woods vanity amongst marble grade - ours wouldn't hold upward this fancy, but I similar the colors of the woods + marble.



The other flooring cloth I am considering (if I'm convinced that woods is a bad option) is a 2" hexagon marble tile.  I similar the slightly enlarged scale of the classic 1" hex as well as think it would hold upward a charming add-on of natural stone.

I similar the honed (unpolished/tumbled) versions best to give it a less flashy appearance.  

I'm also fan of a niggling dark accent inward the tiles, similar this 1 amongst a handbasket weave.  It is really classic for an older abode as well as I think the contrast would hold upward nice...

Really dear this look.  But nosotros won't convey a fancy chandelier, but a brass lantern instead.

So, hither is what I demand your assist amongst :

Wood Floor?

Marble Hexagon?

Basket Weave Marble?
