There’s a famous quote in Interior Design that says: “A designer’s work is to make a design timeless.” So, when our client reached out with a need to update their bedroom and bathroom, we were so excited to bring this quote to life and help them create a Warm and Timeless Design. So, if you're ready for another transformation, and learn how we tackled some challenges with our design approach make sure to read until the end!

Not only did it increase the shower space, but it streamlined the design. We created a seamless look by making the tub deck and bench the same height.

Then we laid out the tile in a vertical offset pattern that worked beautifully throughout and went all the way to the shower ceiling. I love that we found a tile that worked beautifully with the floor and existing granite! It looks classic and timeless, just like my client requested.

We painted the vanities and walls to coordinate. We decided to go with neutrals to bring a touch of modernism to this space while keeping the traditional style. The Roman shades for the window add a bit of softness and texture to all of the hard finishes.

Now for the lighting.  I like adding different lighting layers in bathrooms to create a coordinated space. Doing so will help you create a look that will always stay in style. Plus, it was the perfect opportunity to mix the metals: polished nickel plumbing fixtures, black mattes in the lighting, and cabinet hardware. 

We modernized the space by adding round mirrors with an antique silver finish and beaded detail.

My favorite part is the color variation in the tile. It's just so beautiful and unique. Notice the exposed edge of the tile. Usually, we do a bullnose tile or a Schluter piece to give it a finished look, but we wanted this to look more natural.

Bedroom

Our client’s goal for their bedroom was to update it and give it a ‘finished look’ while maintaining a warm and cozy feeling. Our main challenge in this room was to find a rug for the oddly shaped room. Our approach was to go with a custom-cut wool rug that gave the room the feeling of completion.

We also found the perfect fabric to craft a lumbar pillow for the bed that ties the room together.

One of my favorite things about this remodel project was the wallpaper, which provided texture and a little bit of interest. Then, we added custom pillows in soft creams and an accent pillow to make this room comfy and timeless.

We used my clients’ existing nightstands and added taller, sleeker lamps to improve the lighting. We also positioned mirrors behind them to help reflect light.

To complete this room, the client requested a comfortable place to sit and study, so we sourced a round table and two comfortable custom chairs on castors. That ivory velvet is so luxurious.

Despite the initial challenges, the result was a warm, cozy bedroom that exceeded our client's expectations. My client’s words say it all: "I thought I'd never have a beautiful bedroom in this house."
