@JAN MOYERThe ceding is at 9'.

@jandsmomI could change it out myself. What I am not sure of is the design. The angular shape of the lamp may crash with the curvy tub and rough finished vanity.

To be honest, a matte black faucet seems more in keeping with that vanity. Sharper geometry would better suit the sconces too. Nobody can advise on the light, (you have no specs as to its height, only the width ) . At this point, I'd decide what look you are really after.

I don't love the sconce and light combo. Two different feelings there : )

I am afraid you are right. I could do matte black faucets. The darkest color for sconce is orb. The faucet doesn’t come in orb. The tub filler comes in chrome only. I thought satin nickel and chrone go better than matte black and chrome.

AND HATE TO SAY IT...............You don't have to electrify if. Surround it with recessed.

I was also looking. I found a diamond backplate.

Do you think black faucet will go with a chrome tub filler?

NO. Doesn't meet code. Not safe. Darwin awards are still given out for this.

I'm repeating this not just for @snowcountry but for those who will read this and DIY.

@jandsmom Hopefully your bath won't be used by a guest or a child.

Crome tub fill????????????? No. You are in five different feels here. Frankly? Maybe that should not be your VANITY.

You can't just pick items in islolation and expect great. You want a glam spa? or a rustic retreat ?!

Why the chrome?!

I;m already exhausted : )

Can you do a mock up of them together? I'm horrible at that stuff but there seem to be plenty of people here who know how to do it. You might get a better perspective.

@JAN MOYER They come in chrome only. That's why I was thinking satin nickel for the others.

I think something like this would work better with your original choices, either in the middle of the room or over the tub if you have the clearance to meet code. Also, I hope you were able to try out your tub in person. The straight sides look like they would prevent you from leaning back or resting your head.

"The house isn't built yet"

I will tell you right now, you need to get yourself an interior designer, local and on board soon.

You are headed for a mish mash, and possibly not the home of your dreams, simply because of a flawed selection process.

You keep saying, it doesn't come in this, or that. You stated the tub filler only comes in chrome. Tub fillers come in many finishes. As do faucets, lights and bath sconces. There are a million styles and shapes in all of these, from almost as many manufacturers and sources,

I will ask again. What is the end feeling you want in the bath? Because your selections need to lead to that feel in a finished result.

What you do NOT want is a chrome tub fill, satin nickel sconces, and an aged iron light. You especially do not want that when they do not even share a styling commonality , other than you like them individually. All rooms, are the SUM of all their parts; an "orchestra" , and a result that leads to beautiful music. Or unintentional discord.

Start making idea books. Do that for this bath, for any other rooms as well. At the very least, post your inspo picture for this bath. Not just a tub in front of a window with a light hanging above : )

@calidesignThanks so much. Your post is very helpful. My choice for the chandelier is problematic. I will look into the lighting you posted. Yes, I tried the tub. You don't get to relined far. But the lumbar support was good surprisingly and you get to sit deep.

@JAN MOYER I like spa glam without sleekness and I like rustic without going too far. My choices for the tub and the vanity are ok together. If I give up the chandelier, my choices should work. Matte black works better for the vanity but satin nickel de-emphasizes rustic and goes better with chrome. The tub filler is floor mounted and finish choices are limited. Inspiration photos below. Not sure why two of them came out so small.

GRIFFIN ENRIGHT ARCHITECTS: Hollywood Hills Residence · More Info

Pick ONE Satin Nickel or chrome. Change the tub fill, since you already have the faucet and the sconces.

Heres a page full of them. My god...........satin nickel, brushed nickel...all the SAME. Ditto the shower fittings. Or mix it your way, and all over and come back and weep later.?! The chrome and satin nickel is too close to mix well. Chrome looks best with MORE chrome, save black for a light or mirror frame. . And chrome does not suit your vanity. At ALL. Design is commitment and editing. To whatever you are going for which is a bit too all over the darn place.

I don't have faucets or sconce yet. I don't have the vanity or the tub, either. I am still looking around. I like the savoy lighting calidesign posted except it is bit heavy. Would this work? It is 15" wide 16" high. Satin nickel.

I picked a Kohler floor mounted tub filler, slender looking stillness. It comes only in chrome. Besides, the faucets look heavy in nickel or black. Would chrome work with my vanity? If it does, I would go for all chrome.

I would spend some more time going through inspo pics and identifying what it is you really like about each space to help you define your style. As you’ve described it, I can’t get a clear picture even with the pictures you posted. Spa glam and rustic are polar opposites in my mind, and I think it will be difficult to get helpful feedback regarding cohesion of your fixtures until the vision itself is solidified. To that end, tile selections and your other interior finishes are a big factor in that as well.

No tiles. Plain wall. Plain concrete slab floor. I like to mix things up. I am trying not to be too contradictory.

Concrete slab floor, and that vanity start a statement. Would I put chrome with the vanity? No. As to slim "stillness" ..............it can be had in satin nickel. Fall in love with another fill.

If you want a glam juxtaposition with the floor? Choose a DIFFERENT vanity and get chrome shower, faucet and tub fill............all KOHLER and all from the same collection.

You have absolutely no clue where you are going. None. An intentional juxtaposition is far different than a look of " I simply want everything. " It's your house. Do as you like, just don't end in misery. Minus a lot of money to boot.

Advocating for something illegal and dangerous deserves a flag.

@JAN MOYER"Would I put chrome with the vanity? No." That's what I thought. The best I can do is satin nickel. Stillness comes in chrome only. I could switch to kohler purist. That comes in vibrant brushed nickel. Faucets all in brushed nickel. Stillness tub filler looks better than purist and brushed nickel looks a bit darker than satin nickel of the sconce.

Fine as you HAVE it above. Good grief.

The myth that you must love EVERY individual element equally to the love the whole? It is just that, a MYTH. In fact it is guaranteed to screw you up.

@JAN MOYERGlad that you approve! I get to keep the vanity, the tub, replace the original chandelier with the one like @calidesign posted. This will be a winning bathroom :)

We are serious about that light. ........ The dingle dangle. ....

And no offense....... the one up there is too heavy. Looks a bit ordinary breakfast area too. Sorry.

What's wrong with the dingle dangle? I like that light. I could use it over the dining table and/or kitchen island. I think it will be fun.

As much as I like the vanity, I think I'd be better off something g less rustic. Like this?

There are better than that. UGH

So you're adding midcentury modern to the mix?

While I am at it, pile them up :) Guess not.

@JAN MOYERYes, it is a bit heavy. And Kohler's brushed nickel seems a bit different. I may have to go with another brand to match satin nickel better. maybe I should give up on a chandelier and put a plain ceiling light.

Before you decide on the lighting, you need to know what direction to take this bathroom. Your concrete floors and fixture choices are very industrial, and your tub is modern. The first vanity you chose is rustic and the new one you're looking at is MCM. Take a step back and look at example photos to see how you want your bath to look. Once you've come up with a style you want to stick with, it will be much easier to find lighting that also coordinates.

Concrete floors are how they build around here. It wasn't exactly my choice although I don't mind. I will be putting a rug in the bathroom. Modern is where it is going except I didn't like vanity "modern" came with, too straight, too square.

If you keep everything modern, with the more rustic vanity as a juxtaposition, it can look fine. Look for a modern version of your sconce for the ceiling light, in the same finish.

A concrete foundation slab isn’t a finished floor choice. It takes a lot more to get it to finished floor status. Concrete slabs by themselves are porous, and will stain and etch. There are multiple options for creating a finished concrete floor. Grinding plus epoxy. A densified microtopping. A densified fiber reinforced pour. A grind, stain, and epoxy. Etc. But they will all generally be more expensive than doing a porcelain tile on top of the slab.

I suggest working with a knowledgeable local interior designer. The best value that they can provide is in narrowing your focus after creating a design mission statement and overall design program. The most expensive mistakes are those made from a lack of ability to edit out unsuitable choices on the front end. Combining everything you like only creates a cohesive design if you have that clear vision and ability to self edit.

@calidesign Thanks! I could give up the sconce. Put a wall mirror filling the entire space above the vanity and use overhead lighting That will obscure the vanity and may allow me to proceed "modern".

The design thing is harder than you thought, heh?? Yeah. It is. Get yourself a local ally via a designer. You don't have a hole or shovel in the ground yet. If you vacillate this much through all the other coming selections required of you? You can look forward to living here at age 100, totally exhausted. : ) Get some help. Local.

PS Nothing will "obscure" any vanity.

Snowcountry,

I was recently working on a project, and was stumped on some things, but I wasn't sure if I wanted an interior designer to "take the wheel" or if I just needed some advice, or something in between. I went onto www.asid.org and clicked on "find a pro." I called a few of the designers in my area, and a few of them said they would only meet with a homeowner if the project is over a certain amount (50K, 100K...), and if they can be the GC for the whole project. But some others were willing to meet for a flat fee. I think our meeting was 90 minutes and the fee was $250. This was very helpful to me because I needed some direction, but I wasn't sure at that time if I wanted anything more than that. Maybe finding someone who can consult with you now will help you to firm-up what your overall direction is. Then you can decide if you need/want a designer to get more involved by pulling samples, choosing materials, coming with you to shop, taking over certain parts of the project, etc, etc. I ended up being able to complete my project with better results just from that one consultation.

On another project several years ago, I did the same thing. That time though, I ended up asking the designer to help me 2 or 3 times during the course of the project, on an hourly basis. She was very helpful at certain crunch-points in the project when I needed some help. Some designers don't do hourly consultations at all bc you can't maintain a business on just that. The business model doesn't work. But some designers will stick these little hourly consultations in-between other things in their schedule to meet new clients and expand their business.

You can also try some online solutions such as Modsy, but I haven't done that so I don't have any specific feedback.

It seems like you need more help than just an hourly consultation though. I'm just suggestiong that as a starting point, so that you can meet a local designer, or two, and then you can choose someone to give you more help since it seems like you are struggling to find an overall feel, vision, or direction for the room (and maybe other parts of your house?).

https://www.asid.org/

@AJCNI will check the website out. Hourly consult sounds good to me. Getting feedback may be useful. Thanks so much.

I wouldn't say I don't have a direction. I tend to like many different things that don't fit into any one style. Don't we all?

I "tend to like many different things that don't fit into any one style. Don't we all?I "

CORRECTION: you like a lot that doesn't fit into any one ROOM with a clear message to yourself or the beholder.

You don't have a direction, hon. You don't. You have the same issue EVERYONE has. We all like a lot of stuff.. Designers included. The internet especially, has made design the ultimate "all you can eat" buffet. Except you can't eat it all. The aftermath is ugly when you try.

Juxtapositions, a bit of an eclectic feel even, take some design SKILL. This is why there are coordinating suites of everything from lighting fixtures, to bedroom sets, to matching cocktail , console and end tables! Manufacturers know it's challenging to design, so they do it FOR you and eliminate the decision. Nobody is suggesting that here.

But the greater the veer away from that boring matchy concept? The more you need some help. Your vision is NOT clear enough. It just isn't.

You are also under the spell of the misguided belief, that if you simply love each and every element, you will love the space. Nope..................you won't.

Jan, thanks for your feedback but please, don't call me honey. At the end of the day, it really doesn't matter if a piece is out of place. No need to get overly excited. It's only a room that you will stop noticing after a few months. This is the fifth bathroom I am doing. I liked my previous four. I am quite sure this one will turn out ok after some tweaks. I do not like those stylized space like you see in the magazine. I'd rather have a mumbo jumbo "she knows nothing about interior design and has no vision" space. At least you have pieces you like rather than stepping into a house fashion runway.

In that spirit, I think the vanity can be fixed if I close up the open shelf and plug the hole. It will have uniform front but still rough surface. Grey matte counter top, chrome fixtures, ceiling lights instead of a chandelier.

As long as things are mashing up so well already with all the elements in this thread...

Why not skip the electrical for a chandelier entirely.... and mount an outdoor solar chandelier from a hook in the ceiling and run the charging panel to your window?

Given the saga of the interesting architectural plans vs what you ended up with without the architect involved, you really need the Designer. Your compromises just to move things forward, haven’t served you well.

The past predicts the future. A hodgepodge instead of a clear central design is not what you need here. You can love a lot of things. You can’t put them all into one room, or even one house. You can love it from afar.

I would consider using a white quartz countertop for the vanity rather than gray. It will coordinate with the tub and look better on the wood vanity. Especially if your concrete floors will also be gray, the white will look fresher.

@calidesignConcrete floor will be stained brownish terra cotta -ish. Won't white quartz look to stark next to rough wood?

No, a white countertop would look clean and modern like the tub and toilet. And especially with warm brown floors, gray would be the worst possible choice.

@calidesignThanks so much. They look nice. How white would you go with the countertop? Looking through Caesarstone, they have a few whites, intense white, pure white, blizzard has some yellow/brownish tint, and organic white that's darker than blizzard.

BROWN concrete!?!?! BROWN? Somehow or another that critical piece of info was omitted.

Disregard 90% of the advice above. Plain gray concrete is the assumption when discussing “concrete floors”. Brown is a whole other style direction. And cool modern isn’t the first thing on that list.

Put all this on pause while you reconsider dirt brown floors.

Not everyone is a fan of grey nor does it work with every decorating scheme. There is a whole world of pleasing concrete colors

If you are going to have a licensed electrician do it, I don't believe that they will install it directly over the tub. We built a home a few years ago and I bought a chandelier to go above the tub, and our electrician would only install it if it was offset from the tub in the room, so that none of the light fixture was over the tub. When you go to sell, it could also be an issue that you would get nicked by the inspector to change.

You can lead.......whether not this ? Is a total crap shoot

You'll want a white countertop that is either slightly warm or the same white color as your tub, rather than a grayish or too bright white.
