I'd remove all, paint carefully inside!!! the hole in gloss black : ), Stick a finger in. done.
@bpath - not sure why it won’t let me tag you - the quirks/issues related to using Houzz on my iPad/MacBook Air seem to be multiplying. . .
I didn’t know that an integrated fan is an option with solar tubes! I hate not having any daylight in that bathroom (even though it’s an upstairs guest bath). I will definitely hire a professional installer who will flash it correctly. Thanks for the info!
The cabinets are not new except for the island and doors, otherwise it was painted. The tile is cloe white and the grout was a very light gray but don’t know the exact name. Not sure about how the tile was installed.
Pick your Taj Mahal slabs carefully. One lot of slabs at one of our major local stone yards has streaks of lemon green in it. It was very obvious when a couple was trying to ordinate with their white cabinets.
I like the cheaper quartz backsplash idea in a matte finish. I’m imagining something like this- except a kitchen obviously ;)
What do you mean by modern? It can mean 10 different things. Perhaps you can say more. Do you mean Mid Century Modern?
I certainly think there are ways to have a modern space with a more traditional fireplace. I'd first start by removing the ornate scrolling iron grate.
Nothing wrong with cabochons! I wouldn’t touch any hard surfaces. Paint the bathroom white. Get a longer linen shower curtain (or regular curtain and use a liner) and put it up with a rod higher toward the ceiling. I’m thinking new modern black faucets and coordinating door hardware and lights. That’s it. Check out restoration hardware for inspiration.
I tried to find a photo of what’s in my head. This is the closest I could find. They’re focused on the flooring but hopefully you can visualize the floor, wood, white linen, and black combo that would work beautifully in your bathroom. 👌
No need to retile. I think the floor is a very nice neutral. The granite is dating the room. Get a new vanity top, lights, and mirrors. Put on a fresh coat of paint. The place will feel new without touching the tile.
