A Modern Master Bathroom

In this master bathroom, designer Vicente Wolf placed Clodagh Collection's Zen cast-concrete tub on a concrete slab inside the glassed-in shower enclosure to make it "a sculptural focal point." Faucets and shower fixtures by Waterworks.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this master bath!!!!!!!!!!

In this master bath designed by Fern Santini, Princess Yellow limestone from Ann Sacks surrounds a bathtub by Kohler.

A Swanky Bathroom

Designed by Paolo Moschino the sink in this master bathroom is an antique commode refitted with a limestone sink.

The pictures compliment the animal print on the chair, glad to see animal prints showing up in baths!

A Calming Bathroom

The floating tub and walls in brown vinyl grasscloth — Elitis through Donghia — give the master bath designed by Jeffrey Bilhuber an aura of absolute calm.

Designer Nancy Boszhardt said, "We were so lucky to come across this marble. It's no longer available and there was just enough for the master bathroom." The house originally had arches throughout, and Boszhardt restored that architectural feature.

Striking touch for a dramtic statement!!

A Roman-Inspired Bathroom

In this master bath designed by J. Randall Powers, the rays of an antique starburst mirror hung in a round window are echoed in a contemporary wheelback armchair. The limestone floors, marble countertops, and alabaster urns reference ancient Roman materials.

Designer's Notes/Bath Suites

Designer's Notes

A Mediterranean feel was achieved in this powder room with the warm wall finish. The walls were faux-finished with plaster relief arabesque motifs scattered about. A soft glaze was washed over for an aged feel, which complements the mirror and etagere.

A 1950's vintage bathroom can still be revitalized. A custom-designed vanity with an open storage compartment can visually give the illusion of more space. The area below can be used to stack towels and other toiletry items in neat boxes. The walls were covered in a coral-colored grasscloth for a wow factor.



A small powder room can benefit from a unique vanity cabinet. Here, the vanity cabinet is floating above the floor and has a capiz shell inlaid panel. This detail is repeated in the custom Venetian plaster finish on the walls and the border of the mirror.



Don’t be afraid to use a dark paint color, as long as you balance it with colors and textures that reflect light easily like glossy white wainscoting and polished metals. This is the color I used on my own bathroom, I added a terrazzo floor to pick up the colors in the wall and retain the white onto the floor.



Black-and-white marble tile, silver blue paint and charcoal gray concrete counters add trendy charm to this 1940’s home.

This completely gutted and redesigned  bathroom  includes a steam shower, large tub and double-sink vanity. The custom cherry blossom tile mosaic is from Ann Sacks and makes the bathroom feel unique and luxurious. Because the mosaic was an expensive addition, simple, inexpensive tiles were selected for all other areas of the bathroom to avoid breaking the bank.

Ultimate in Bathing

In the master bath, Wolf placed Clodagh aCollection's Zen cast-concrete tub on a concrete slab inside the glassed-in shower enclosure to make it "a sculptural focal point." Faucets and shower fixtures by Waterworks. Wolf designed the nickel and mahogany console-style vanity and fitted it with glass Vitraform sinks. Floors and walls are honed limestone.

Step into the Medicis copper tub by Herbeau and it feels as if you've stepped into another era. An antique Italian chair follows the curve. Inlaid Indian Almirah armoire from Charles Jacobsen.

To complement the black-and-white master bedroom, the walls of the master bath were painted in bold black-and-white stripes.

The master bath has an authentic period look. The 1920s tiles are from Scott Wells; 1920s chandelier is from Remains. Walls are Clarence House's Les Fougères in Bianco; curtains are Cowtan & Tout's Trailing Leaf in white. The 1870s faux-bamboo mirror is from Hideaway House.

Bathroom by Jill Sharp Brinson


The Waterworks Cambridge tub was a birthday gift from Brinson's husband. "I wanted it to feel like a trough in an old barn, with the faucet coming directly out of the wall." A mirrored cabinet hides a television.
