This 54-square-foot powder room was part of an extensive first floor renovation in Ladue. The original powder room was heavy in color and materials and needed updating. The existing vanity was a short black cabinet with a green marble top, and the room was painted red with a green ceiling. The client asked designers Castle Design and Wise Works to keep the powder room’s existing vanity and brass plumbing fixtures as elements in the new space. The designers selected large-scale elements to create a visually appealing, playful and bright room.

Chelsea Design Company gave two hardworking business owners a spa-like bathroom to use as their escape with plenty of hidden storage. Double doors leading into the bathroom were removed to give space for a new vanity where a shower once was. The changes allowed for two separate vanity spaces with large matching wood-framed mirrors and a tall linen cabinet with hidden open shelving for easily accessible storage to keep the countertops clean. Simple, dark vertical grain walnut vanities are paired with neutral Cambria countertops and a small travertine mosaic backsplash.

Every design decision in this spectacular home was made with multigenerational living in mind. The goal was to create a beautiful, high-end residence that allowed for comfort, independence and accessibility for people of all ages and abilities. Designers Castle Design and R.G. Apel Development blended beauty with purpose in this 190-square-foot bathroom embracing a contemporary, yet warm, soothing aesthetic. The cabinetry features easy-open push control doors and finger pull drawers.

The client’s only requirement for the remodel of their 232-square-foot bath was that it was clean and modern while staying true to the history of their home. The existing layout was confusing and dated. Designer Chelsea Design Company created a new functional layout to give the homeowners a walk-in closet, freestanding tub, two vanities, a spa-like shower and private water closet. A custom built-in natural walnut cabinet houses deep lower drawers for linens and smaller storage at the top for personal items such as watches and jewelry.

Doorless shower designs have one of the biggest benefits: you can style them with an endless array of looks, materials, colors and finishes. They give you an open, welcoming atmosphere. When combined with heated floors and a fan you will keep the space warm, giving you a luxurious spa-like experience. Jamison Boyd, Henry Kitchen & Bath.

Designer Tips: 

White paint can be a tricky endeavor for most people as there are so many different shades to choose from. In making a selection, you will notice blue, pink, yellow, gray and even green undertones that may not be noticeable in the paint store but will become more visible depending on the lighting in your room. Anne Marie Boedges, Anne Marie Design Studio.
