The story

  • 01Layout reconfiguration
  • 02Floating walnut vanity
  • 03Recessed medicine cabinet
  • 04Heated floors

The room is barely five feet wide, so every inch had to earn its keep. We recessed the medicine cabinet into the wall cavity and floated the vanity to open up the floor.

Sage stacked tile and a walnut vanity give the room the warmth of the woodwork downstairs, while a single globe sconce does the work of three.
