Some people just have an eye and are willing to take chances…

We’ve worked with this client on several projects. In our humble opinion, the girl’s got good taste. And she’s not afraid to exert her style and her preferences. Everything about her home is well appointed and inviting. It’s a comfortable home with LOTSA style.

Let’s start in the master bath by Jeff Talmadge Construction http://www.talmadgeconstruction.com…

Guest Sinks

The Guest Bath, by Dale Utley (831-422-7646) and Randy Marty Contractors (831-345-6577) is equally dreamy. Look at these fun round sinks with slanted channel drains. They’re of a man-made stone which cleans very easily. We chose them in a matte finish for this project but they are available in a polished finish, too. The faucets are German and have nice, wide, comfortable handles that almost everyone likes to use.

Let’s celebrate those curves with these vanities! We had these vanities made left and right by LaCava in the good old USA. The wood grain runs horizontally which really shows off the curves. Seductive, right?

The shower valve (Made in USA) is thermostatic which allows for perfect control of flow and temperature. The top handle is for the shower and the bottom handle is for the tub spout

The tub is shallow but perfect for homes where there should just be a tub but  everyone seems to prefer to shower. The skirt is nice and plain

The Best Drain You’ll Never See

Yucky, water-stained, tin-like drains are a thing of the past with this beauty. The tile inserts into the metal frame. It can also be installed in an accessibly designed or universal designed bathroom depending on the location of the drain. It would need to be near a corner or back wall and the floor should be sloped toward the drain. With this type of installation, depending on the size of the shower, the shower may be able to be installed without a threshold.

It just disappears!

George and Tamara’s project

Imagine my delight when, while playing in the tide pools with my children, I ran into a client who promptly invited us to see her cool finished remodel!

George and Tamara have lived in this beach bungalow for years and decided it was time for a face lift. They purchased a gorgeous kitchen faucet and sink along with luxurious shower fixtures and channel drains which allowed them to install a very modern shower. I have attached photos of the shower along with their cool concrete countertop and fireplace. I have an outside photo of the house but I would love to have some before pics. So, George and Tamara, if you or your contractor have some, please email them to me and I’ll include them, too.
