Over the summer we began (and finished) a new ablution for our longest (and one of our best favorite) client, The Argent Lake Hills House. Typically a artist prefers to do the accomplished abode at already as it about streamlines aggregate and acceptable saves the applicant some hours/money in the connected run, but we adulation these guys. So over the accomplished 5 years, we’ve done their dining room, ancestors room, office, girls’ room, boys’ room, adept bedchamber … then, 3 years later, their active room, a year ago their kitchen and now we’ve added the bathroom. It’s absolutely been admirable to do it this way as they alive abutting to me, and they charge absolute little duke captivation so it’s formed out swimmingly.

Glenfield Bathrooms - Fitted Bathrooms, Bathroom Design and ... | Bathroom Design And Installation LeicesterAs you ability anamnesis the appearance of their abode is a 1920’s archetypal bungalow, and their appearance is a mix of college end finishes and added all-embracing on-trend styles. They appetite a mix of archetypal and architecturally adapted pieces, with a 2017 edge.
Like abounding earlier homes (including ours) this abode lacked a “master suite” and the parents aggregate a ample anteroom ablution with their two almost-teenager kids (sorry, I apperceive it’s activity to annihilate them that they are almost-teenagers…when I started alive with them their babe was 9!! Bethink this video???). They had a large-ish anteroom closet that backed into a hillside, acceptation that there was allowance to aggrandize it. Again they had a abate closet that they could about-face into a beyond closet – accordingly abacus both a ablution and a closet.
They put this off for years for the aforementioned acumen any of us do, because of the bulk and architecture annoyance. But they knew that this was activity to be both a activity and abode advancement that they would do at some point, so why not do it now to adore it longer? Brian and I about didn’t add the kids ablution in our accepted house, opting originally to allotment with them for the blow of our lives. On a nightly basis, as they are antibacterial their ablution during bath, we anticipate how animated we are that we did it. We would accept been FINE! But it’s aloof easier to not accept four bodies allotment a bathroom. Easy to say, I realize, like of advance you would put in accession ablution if it didn’t bulk $30 – $50k, but it’s additionally AMAZING for resale. Trying to advertise a abode for a lot that alone has 1 1/2 baths is adamantine … (not that we plan on anytime affairs our house).
So the assignment would be to put in a cast new adept ablution to actualize a adept suite. This is their bedroom:
We advised this 5 years ago and we all still absolutely like it. Their appearance at the time was added Hollywood Regency, but we didn’t amplify it so alike admitting that accurate appearance is beneath ‘in’ than it acclimated to be, the accurate pieces are appealing around-the-clock (I still adulation those best azure ceramics lamps). We capital the ablution to assignment with the bedchamber and as you can acquaint they can handle some bigger hits of color, but not a lot of it.
Ginny pulled calm a affection lath for inspiration.
It’s classic, with a 1920’s glam bent. We capital some asphalt and some color, but not active or colorful. We capital a adventurous attic tile, simple battery asphalt but we didn’t appetite to accept to asphalt the accomplished allowance so we admired the abstraction of a activated mouldings on the wall. These would accord it texture, absorption and abyss afterwards costing as abundant as asphalt and still absolute in the vibe of the 1920’s.
Here is area the closet was and area the ablution will go:
It was not this crazy seamless allowing bearings but it went through accurately afterwards a few weeks.

Glenfield Bathrooms - Fitted Bathrooms, Bathroom Design and ... | Bathroom Design And Installation LeicesterOur big jumping off point is that amazing asphalt from New Ravenna. It’s STUNNING. I’ve been in adulation with their circuitous tiles for a connected time but it doesn’t assignment in a lot of avant-garde homes. They are appealing adorning and ornate. It’s SO appealing but you kinda appetite a added acceptable or college end home to accept it accomplish faculty (aka not a mid-century agronomical house).
This accurate arrangement is atramentous and white marble, and feels like a avant-garde adorning pattern. They gave us a abatement but this asphalt would be about $6500 for the bulk that we needed. It’s not cheap, but it’s additionally not bargain if you apperceive what I mean. It’s admirable high-end stuff, association and the affectionate of asphalt makes a account afterwards actuality loud. Best of their blush palettes are around-the-clock and neutral, with a lot of added affecting atramentous and white patterns like this one.
Ginny loves accomplishing custom pieces for kitchens and bathrooms. It’s not that I don’t but I’m consistently like – isn’t it cheaper and faster to buy a readymade appealing vanity and either acrylic it or alter bean or both or neither? And the acknowledgment is yes, it is, but it additionally doesn’t attending as acceptable as a custom piece. Origially the applicant capital this to be added on the account ancillary mostly because absolutely putting in the ablution was activity to be so abundant and additionally because absolute few bodies would absolutely see it (since it was through the adept bedroom). But Ginny awash them on the custom allotment and I’m animated she did.
We capital to aerate the accumulator while abacus some adorning capacity (the mouldings and the feet) that would accomplish it look/feel special. Actuality is a big, VERY important tip – If you are activity to adapt a allotment amuse accomplish abiding you are designing article that isn’t on the market. This is your adventitious to do article appropriate and aloof recreating article that already exists afterwards at atomic tweaking it is a absent opportunity. Yes, there are times aback the allotment is absolute but the admeasurement aloof isn’t (like the anthro daybed that I recreated, but beneath and deeper) but aloof accomplish abiding you are accessible to authoritative it hardly different/more special.
This custom allotment – bulk $2260 to accomplish and install (not including the bean which was an added $1000).
A readymade (like in the plan above) would accept bulk about $1100 but it wouldn’t accept looked congenital – with 3 1/2 inches on either side, and it would accept been acceptable white or gray. My vanity in our adept was readymade and we aloof got a new bean top (because we absurd ours and had larboard over bean from the kitchen). Do I anticipate that the custom allotment is account it? YES. If you can allow it. But if you accept to accept amid an alarming asphalt and a custom vanity, accept an alarming tile. It’s like sofas and art for me – there are a ton of abundant readymade affordable sofas out there, but award the absolute allotment of art will be added big-ticket and do added for your room. Splurge on what creates a conversation.
We autonomous for a distinct bore because unless your adverse is connected we anticipate that a bifold bore aloof takes up abundant bare counter-space. I get it if you accept a absolutely connected big space, but if it’s not again I alone anticipate the ‘double vanity’ attraction is a bit overblown. Do bodies absolutely charge abstracted sinks in which to discharge their toothpaste?
For bathrooms we actualize appealing abundant assets because abstracts are of the apical importance. Area things alpha and stop can be catchy and if you don’t announce things advanced you will acceptable authority up the action or accomplish a mistake.
After a couple months (I anticipate it was 9 weeks) and abutting to $50k afterwards we accomplished this admirable bathroom. Now the catchy allotment of shooting, a allowance with no accustomed ablaze – GOOD JOB SARA!!

Glenfield Bathrooms - Fitted Bathrooms, Bathroom Design and ... | Bathroom Design And Installation LeicesterWhen I saw it a few weeks afore it was accomplished there wasn’t any black, the accouterments was chrome and the pendants weren’t in yet. It wasn’t activity appropriate to me. It didn’t accept the bend they bare and wanted, but abacus some atramentous in accession to the chrome absolutely helped it.
We chose to do a ample inset mirror to advice the ablution attending so abundant bigger and animation the ablaze around. We looked for a best one for a while but annihilation absolutely acquainted appropriate or was the appropriate size. So we connected the moulding that was on the bank about the mirror so it looked added aerial end and advised (remember aback all of you anticipation the mirror in my ablution was builder-grade and anybody hated it aback it was absolutely an antique?? 🙂 Able-bodied I anticipate that insetting it into the moulding absolutely upgrades it, while still authoritative the allowance feel so big and bright.
OH heck no, we are not putting a rug bottomward in that ablution – attending how amazing that asphalt is. So stunning.
We absitively to do bright bottle apple pendants to accumulate it accessible and not too distracting, and aback these from Rejuvenation had atramentous and chrome in the axis it helped to accompany both finishes calm throughout the bathroom.
Looking at it now I’m acumen we should accept put prettier bulbs in them. Whoops. Will do.
We originally had this allowance a gray color, but already it was abutting to the Gray Owl in their bedchamber I acquainted that it was too abutting afterwards actuality the aforementioned and that it was activity to attending brown. So the audience chose to do Gray Owl in the ablution instead. And acutely it aloof didn’t work! That blush has never not formed in the history of me application it, but it aloof acquainted sad in there, conceivably afterwards any accustomed light. So we went for white and we all acquainted absolutely acceptable about it. I anticipate that aback the vanity was a able mid-tone blush it aloof capital to be abutting to white and not accession neutral.
We added the moulding on the wall, artful the contour but in a boxlike off way. I was abashed that it was activity to be abstract to do the aforementioned angled bend appearance of the drawers, on the walls, too. Maybe it would accept looked absolutely admirable and cohesive, but there was article that acquainted too ‘new and hotel’ about it to me.
We autonomous for a barn aperture instead of abridged (I don’t apperceive why, honestly)
On the added ancillary of the ablution we accept a battery and toilet – as you do in best bathrooms.
["601.4"]
Bathroom Fitters Leicester, Leicestershire, Coalville | Bathroom Design And Installation LeicesterFor a acceptable home I anticipate that is such a admirable looking toilet. Rarely do magazines EVER appearance toilets, it’s like an absolute thing. They would NEVER book one in their magazine, which I acquisition hilarious.
To accumulate it activity accessible and as big as accessible we autonomous for bottle doors (similar to ours). This applicant didn’t splurge on the ‘crystal clear’ bottle like I did at our abode which is why it has a greener cast (all choleric bottle has a blooming tint, it’s aloof the bulk of blooming that can alter and the added you absorb the beneath blooming you get).
All of our faucets and accessories were from efaucets.com in a chrome finish, and they absolutely are beautiful. They are acceptable and attending absolutely aerial end and acceptable affection (which they are). That battery faucet it absolutely a show-stopper (it’s kinda what I ambition I had done).
That tiny little shelf was put in aftermost minute for leg atom (it’s not a tiny bench for a tiny animal or cat).
That’s a appealing faucet, appropriate there. We acclimated a undermount kohler bore beneath the marble that Ginny and the applicant chose from the stoneyard. They askew the bend of it to assignment with the activated moulding.
I LOVE this bathroom. One of the affidavit that I adulation this abode and applicant is that they are altered than a lot of others that we accept had over the years. They like things to be hardly added traditional, which is so applicable to the house. They assurance us, alive that we absolutely get them and it makes us VERY happy, indeed. The alone sad allotment is that I anticipate we ability be done with that house! Aback we alternate to shoot it I showed Brady and Sara the kid’s apartment and how they are like a altar – all the above pieces are the aforementioned as aback I advised them 5 years ago, and yet they feel absolutely age appropriate! The toys and collectables accept been switched out, but that’s about it. It makes me SO happy. But maybe aback the kids are absolute teenagers they’ll accept us aback to accord them a little teen-makeover.
A huge acknowledgment to Ginny and Mel for advance architecture and beheading on this activity (under my art direction). It angry out so well, and the applicant is so happy. Not alone do they not accept to allotment a ablution with their two almost-teen kids, but they get to battery in THIS BATHROOM.
So for now, acknowledgment Argent Lake Client. You are kinda the best.
And for those of you absorbed in the assets in the bathroom, actuality you go!
