There were 7 separate tiny rooms for his/her closets, wc, vanities and a bath tub
All the rooms were very dark and felt cramped
Not enough closet space/ storage
The doors, when opened, slammed into one another
Ugly carpet!
Before List of Client Likes:
Keep the ceiling lines
Goals: Make the space more practical by getting rid of the multiple-room theme; have a usable bathroom; a large closet; update the look to something more contemporary.
After List:
Removed all of the tiny rooms and defined a central axis for the new layout.
Centered the opening to the closet and divided the space into 2 main areas: bathroom and closet
The Bathroom at the far end has a freestanding tub, a large steam shower and a double floating vanity
In addition to the master bathroom, we installed a water closet and a washer/dryer combo unit in the rooms at the end of the hallway
The new custom closet has reclaimed wood built-ins to match the double vanity in the master bath.
2 Benches were added for the gallery effect and also to frame the walkway.
Added Recessed lighting and installed skylights for additional natural light
Continued the walnut floor from the bedroom up and into the closet, wc, and the laundry room
Tiled the bathroom floor
Crystal chain link chandeliers to add some glam!
Black and white cowhide rug for fun!
Result: A visually stunning closet that is both open and spacious with ample storage, hanging space and a sense of balance conveyed by the clean lines which define the space.
