Master Bath Dreaming

I have been contemplating various plans for our master bath for the past six months. Currently, it suffers from a slew of dated materials, as well as a poor layout which includes a combination of two small bathroom spaces (one with just a sink and no natural light) and two small closets. And a floor to ceiling window in front of the toilet. Awesome.

We want to create one bathroom and one larger closet. Did you see this space on Apartment Therapy? L.o.v.e it. And it is almost the exact dimensions we'll be working with.

aI really like the floor, but we'll probably go more neutral. Something more like this:

I'm just crazy about how a floating vanity can make the room seem so much larger.


Tile and color inspirations from talented home renovators Door Sixteen and Brooklyn Limestone.

And I'm hoping that by keeping the bath tub (we were originally thinking walk-in shower), we'll end up with a quote from our contractor that makes more sense for the house and neighborhood. Honestly though, I'm most excited about the closet!

Ooh, love your plans! Now I wish we had gone w/ a floating vanity.

Those are my favorite floors of all time. Did you also see this one by Rambling Renovaters?

That fourth bathroom is dreamy. I wonder what those cabinets are made of? A good bathroom is nice but a good closet? Now you're talking! I'm looking forward to following your renovation.
