Yes, Gil Schafer’s giga-gorgeous bathroom for a home in Charleston, SC. What I want for my master bathroom design is something more like this. But, it’s not what I envision for this 143-year-old brownstone in Boston. Some people would love it, and it’s not that it’s bad. The entire bathroom is too contemporary for my liking. I want a lighter floor, and it’s too gray. I plan on keeping the tile in the shower, except maybe changing the floor. In reality, it’s quite a normal amount of storage. Well, compared to the New York bathroom, that makes sense. It’s funny, but when I first moved here, I couldn’t fathom the amount of storage in my new bathroom. However, that entire space will be occupied by the bathroom vanity. Even if I didn’t want to, it has to get changed because the wall needs to come over about 20 inches towards where the toilet currently is. What is currently there, is not my idea of an old, glamorous hotel.Ībove and below, my bathroom before I purchased the apartment. That’s the feeling I wish to retain throughout the renovation. I believe I mentioned in the blog or maybe it was my “love note” to subscribers, that I’d love a “hotel feeling” for my master bathroom design, similar to the vignette above by my idol, Gil Schafer.Īt night, with the lamps in front of my eight-foot-high windows, I’ve always felt like I’m sitting in an elegant hotel. Now, I have 36 square feet of uninterrupted space to practice my pirouettes. I don’t need it, and you’re right, it really was blocking off the space. Some of you are going to be delighted to know that I’ve taken out the partition by the toilet. Okay, for today, we are going to focus on the mastress ] bathroom design. If you’d like to follow the progression, please go here. You will find some later on in this post. I mentioned this in Sunday’s post about architectural friezes.īelow is the most recent iteration of the bedroom, with an ensuite bathroom design, entry, and laundry area. Like most of the houses in Back Bay, my building had been a rooming house from 1943-1977. In fact, I learned very recently from the Gleasons that before they purchased the building in 1978, the lower level was indeed a studio apartment. I’ve often thought it could easily be a separate apartment. My ensuite altogether is about 425 square feet. It’s a bathroom with an entrance from a bedroom, or, at least, connected to a bedroom. The ensuite bathroom is a term I never heard until HGTV. IMO, far worse than “master.” Aren’t little boys sometimes called “master?” Well, anyway, I guess we can call it an “ensuite master bathroom design.” Yet mistress is a somewhat derogatory word. I’m struggling to call it a “master bathroom ” and not because Grammarly says it’s politically incorrect, (oh, stop!) but because I am a woman. Some of you may recall a post from the fall of 2020, shortly before I purchased my condo, which revealed an idea for my “mistress bathroom design.” I also love my new final layout for the master bathroom design. If you missed the kitchen renderings or would like a refresher, you can see them here. I couldn’t be happier with how it’s looking. Thank you so much for your wonderful comments regarding my new kitchen design.
