About the Project
Set the mood for the ultimate in relaxation! Taking center stage in this primary bath is the inviting soaking tub, set on a marble platform, where LED lighting under the platform’s front edge makes it appear to float. The room exudes luxury with the marble tub surround, countertops, and floors.
Most designers would defer to the default choice of placing the tub parallel to the window, directly in the middle. The creative departure here was twofold: the tub is angled so the bather can face the corner view; and a set of storage cabinets facing both outward into the room as well as toward the tub, establishes a unique asymmetrical arrangement. Faucet controls are conveniently located on an easy-to-reach marble ledge.
Aside from the tub platform cabinets and handy countertop, additional storage is found in the sizable double vanity on one side of the room containing an abundance of drawers. On the opposite wall is a grooming area (with more drawers!) featuring practical tri-view mirrors, allowing a 360 degree view of your finished look. Cabinetry enhances the serene environment with its light rift-cut white oak slab fronts. Unobtrusive finger pulls avoid distraction, while LED strip lighting is another sleek touch.
