Please help with Master Bathroom design
Comments (1)I think you'll get a better response if you post to the "building a home" forum if you haven't already. Also, your floor plan is really difficult to read Two things to jump out at me right away: water closets should have either pocket doors or doors that open outward; doors that open into a water closet are a safety issue. Also, I know that it is common, but personally I'd dislike having to walk through a bathroom to get to my closet....See MoreMaster bathroom help-crosspost from bathroom forum
Comments (19)olychick, thank you for taking a look. :) I'm relieved to hear you think a white shower pan is best. I am heading out now to find porcelain marble look tiles for the shower walls to pick up the gray as you suggested. I want a shiny finish to the walls. Tell me if you think that's a misstep. I am avoiding marble as I have a marble topped vanity now that is pock marked with etchings. As far as seeing myself in the vanity, yes, I think I will be able to do so. I was planning on a black framed mirror spanning the vanity. My current vanity is 32 1/4" high (as will be the new vanity) and when seated on my vanity stool my reflection is seen up to my chest. The only issue currently is that my knees are pressed against drawers. I failed to mention that I was thinking of using absolute black granite for the vanity top for two reasons: one being cost and the other being to avoid etching. Will doing so deviate too much from my inspiration? Lastly, I had the idea of applying pieces of beveled mirror framed by black molding floor to ceiling along the back wall and continuing behind the toilet (similar to this only floor to ceiling with the exception of base molding & crown): [Traditional Bathroom[(https://www.houzz.com/photos/traditional-bathroom-ideas-phbr1-bp~t_712~s_2107) by Northbrook Architects & Building Designers Michael A.

Comments (4)No. That house is too small to support a large master bath, and it doesn’t even have a master bedroom sized to support a large master bath. . The kitchen is also much too small, and that’s far more consequential to resale than a 150K master suite addition that it would take to give a modern vibe. And it would overshadow the rest of the home to the point of being ridiculous. Time to move....See MoreHelp with small master bathroom design
Comments (5)Changing the toilet location is complicated and costly so I would keep it where it is. I would however swing your double vanity around so that’s the first thing you see when entering the room. I would convert your tub into a shower and get rid of the dividing wall. The added wall make the room look small and cramped. Below is a photo giving you an idea of what it could look like. The tiles you chose are fine, but keep the walls and cabinets light. Good lighting is essential, especially since you don’t have a window in there. Add a ceiling light in the shower, lights by the sinks and a strong combination exhaust fan & light....See Moreyvonnebelinda
