Shower with built-in bench.Recessed niche in the shower.
This was a great renovation project. The original bathroom had a soaker tub located directly under the window. By eliminating the soaking tub, we were able to move the location of the bathroom door. The new configuration allowed for a storage bench and extended shower in lieu of the soaking tub. Moving the doorway towards the window also gave the vanity area (not pictured) better use of the bathroom space. Porcelain tile give the look of a stone material without all of the maintenance.

Nest Designs was hired to design the master bathroom. I designed the vanities for this space and sourced out the electric mirrors for the walls. The counter-tops are made of quartz, the same material we used in the kitchen. I used Brizo faucets, Kohler sinks, Zera tile for the floor and carved in the master shower (located behind the right vanity) and the lavatory (located behind the left vanity). There is a master closet, not pictured, to the rear of the bathroom. I worked with Diane at Premiere Lighting on the lighting plan for the entire house. TECH cable lights were used as the overhead lighting and we added LED tape under the vanities to illuminate the space at night. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.
Master Shower
This image shows the interior of the master shower. The walls are a 4×16 tile with a glass mosaic and stone accent border. The rain head and shower head are Brizo Virage. We had a custom glass enclosure made for the shower. There are recessed shower shelves and a corner seat (not pictured). In the upper right of this image you get a partial view of the linen storage that I designed for this space. It gives the owners ample storage for all of their linens and toiletries. The challenge for this space was to maximize every inch of the space while creating a floor-plan that had great flow. This space feels open and airy. It is absolutely beautiful in person.

Guest Bathroom with Shower and Tub
This space developed over the course of the construction of the house. Originally, there was only going to be a tub in this guest bathroom, but the owner decided she wanted to add a shower too. As you can see from the image, my new design added the shower area in front of the bath tub and enclosed both elements behind a glass enclosure. The same tile that was used in the master bathroom was also used in this bathroom. There is no curb/step that divides the shower from the rest of the bathroom. The bathtub is ADA compliant and the toilet is comfort height. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.
Nest Designs was called in to help the homeowner’s select the finish materials and paint color for their hall bathroom. The use of the tile all the way to ceiling in the shower area makes this space feel bigger. The dark vanity looks great against the warm tones in the travertine tile. The oil rubbed bronze finish on the vanity light ties the fixture with the vanity. Sherwin Williams Oyster Bay is the wall color. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.
The same house that is pictured above, but this image is of the master bathroom. I worked with a local contractor to design the floor-plan, design the vanity and select the tile, counter-top, light fixtures, and paint color. The lower portion of the windows are frosted to give the homeowner’s more privacy. The walk-in shower is located behind the vanity wall. Photo by Bealer Photographic Arts.
The upper level of the condo features two bedrooms, a bathroom, a laundry room and a linen closet. This picture is of the Master Bedroom. I chose a gorgeous green color for the wall, a queen sized bed with a rough, natural finish and two ottomans as nightstands. Soft natural bedding and pillows with text and texture give the bedroom a very comfortable and cozy feel. Photo by Nest Designs LLC.
Master Bedroom
For fun I chose a dresser that was made from reclaimed wood. The lamp carries the wooden texture over from the bed. The dress form with the metal helmet and the vintage luggage add style and playfulness to the bedroom. Hanging the mirror on the vertical instead of the horizontal pulls all of the elements together.

Bathroom
Here is an image from the bathroom. I’ve used the wall vases in the past in a bathroom and they were perfect for this space too. This time is used a green grass to add a punch of color against the gray wall color. The numbered basket is perfect for holding hand towels. Photo by The Next Wave.
