A New Historic Art Deco Guest Bathroom

By July 26, 2019 No Comments

Meet our client’s new guest bathroom.  This lovely renovation is just a small part of the overhaul we did for this particular client.  The style of their historic home is Streamline / Art Moderne, though it still has elements of its predecessor style – Art Deco.  The previous bathroom wasn’t as modern as the rest of the home, so our client wanted to honor that in its renovation by leaning more traditional Art Deco.  The final product is pure style & timeless class!

We often avoid giving unsolicited advice, but can not help ourselves from encouraging you to check out our recent post showcasing their living room and kitchen.

The guest bathroom is equally rich in details.  Here are a few of the reasons we love it:

~ the crisp lines of the black tile, highlighting the arches, window, and mirror.

~the black lines are contrasted by the lighter & brighter elements that help the space feel much bigger than before (and don’t you just love the “honeydew” color of the wall tile?!?)

~ a classic art deco style with a simplified modern twist that is cohesive with the rest of the home

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

       

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We can’t continue without pointing out that though the tile work may look simple, only expert installers can do this level of work.  Creating those clean black lines and arches is no small feat, and our guy killed it.

Sometimes details are not always about what we add.  In this particular project, we decided to remove the vanity with seating because it was way too big for this room.  Eliminating this section of cabinetry freed up a significant amount of space.

Our projects take a great deal of teamwork and we have these talented humans to thank:

~Hills Construction (Shane, John, and Ray are the best!)

~Paramount Cabinets – again Preston came through with exactly what we wanted.

~Frank Cox, Boulder Top Tile (I doubt Frank ever reads these posts, but in case he does, we want him to know he’s at superhero status after this project)
