Provided by notable

materials, part of two adjoining 1880s brick cottages, the
featured bathroom was an example of a suitable bathroom for the contemporary
home with traditional background.
"Height restrictions were the determining factor,"
architect John Behal stated. "The roof could not go any higher, which
meant we had to come up with some creative solutions. In the bathroom, for
example, the glass walls of the shower go right up to the sloping ceiling,
which gives the shower a sculptural presence. The curved, freestanding tub enhances
the effect – the curves of the tub are juxtaposed with the sharp angles of the
shower."
"Limiting the color palette to mainly warm gray and
white, with dark wood accents, helps to create a serene oasis. We added a
light, ethereal fabric for the bathroom window coverings, to soften the look of
the tiles."
To create a sense of space, Behal cantilever vanity unit so
that it appeared to float in the bathroom. "This also helps to make the
vanity – and the two mirrors – seem like separate objects placed within the
space, rather than part of the architecture,"
