When you show the tile installer your tile design for a bathroom like this, he either loves you or hates you.  Thankfully, in this case, our tile guy loved a good challenge!  The large shower room integrates the free standing claw foot bathtub with the shower, creating what is commonly called a “wet room.”  To keep the tub on a softer, straighter incline, we opted for an elongated trough drain on the shower side.  The soap and shampoo cubbies become wall art with the mosaic tile back and pencil trim.  The tall walls are broken up with different sizes and patterns in the tile including a herringbone and 12×12 brick set.  His and hers double shower heads are plumbed separately and can be used at the same time.  The main bath floor has a glass tile mosaic rug framed with 12X12 travertine.  The stone trough sink is wide enough to accommodate both faucets.  The Driftwood color vanity cabinets have his and her towers on the counter for maximising storage..

This St. Louis bathroom remodel is located in an older home in University City.  We wanted to keep the charm of the old architecture when we did the design for this small space.  Making the window the focal point, we used a larger format subway tile in a debossed pattern topping it with a black pencil trim.  The black, white, gray and brass color pallet is clean and simple yet full of detail and impact.  The vanity is small but exploding with detail in the cabinet feet and wainscot sides as well as in the large headboard style stone splash.  The faucets are wall mounted and make the 18″ deep vanity top more spacious.  The radiator is painted with a metallic spray paint in a warm golden color to compliment the faucets and sconce lighting.   The curved shower rod makes more room for showering in the combination tub/shower.  The best part?  Carl, the dog, sat so nicely for our photo shoot!

Small bathrooms are extremely hard to take pictures of, but we all have them.  Don’t you want to see a tiny space packed with details?  The best thing about an undersized bathroom is that it doesn’t take much of any one thing to make it great.  When you think about it, that can mean cost savings!  Less square foot of tile to buy, smaller cabinets, only one sink, one faucet, and of course a modest piece of stone for your countertop.  Be fearless in your dreaming, below are some photos we managed to take that might help!
