“I was asked to create a spa-like bathroom with natural elements, like you’d find in a luxurious ski lodge,” relates lead designer Hannah Triebel. The clients envisioned a relaxing oasis with a sauna, a large tub and a curb-less, walk-in shower that would accommodate their two dogs when they need to be bathed at home.
Triebel collaborated with Delbert Adams Construction Group on the plan, which transformed the formerly drab and dated space with a material palette that conjures the outdoors: pine posts and beams with gray, stone-look ceramic floor tile. A sleek tub is clad in the same tile as the floor for a seamless look. It is flanked on one side by the frosted-glass shower enclosure and on the other by the Western red cedar sauna, which is walled in glass to maintain an open feel. A dark-stained custom vanity, topped with white quartz, provides a sleek contrast to the rustic pine accents. Vintage-look, oil-rubbed bronze fixtures complete the look.
