A pair of returning clients sought to renovate their main en suite bathroom. They desired a private, spa-like sanctuary as a well-earned retreat from their busy lives in the healthcare industry. Drawing inspiration from the existing Japanese and Pacific Northwest mid-century design elements of their residence, materials and design elements were carefully selected to create a tranquil, contemplative, and soothing environment.
The backsplash tile, with its subtle pattern reminiscent of a raked sand garden (known as karesansui gardens), was a perfect fit for the space. Noteworthy features of the renovation include a steam shower, custom white oak slatted cabinetry, and poured concrete countertops with integrated sinks.
