A Wet Room in Lakeview

Investment: $40,000-$60,000
Designer: Ivana Stojanovska
Photographer: Rayne Troxell
Location: Lakeview, Chicago
Description: This bathroom falls outside the traditional definition of a bathroom, and we are here for it. This gorgeous open layout bathroom features a single glass panel shower enclosure with curbless walk-in shower and linear drain that catches any water from the open shower design. A wet room is space efficient, easy to clean, and adds a unique selling point to the house. Black diamond handmade floor tiles contrast perfectly with the porcelain slab walls. Handmade tiles are unique and make a stunning statement, but they are best used in designs when the client is able to embrace the imperfections that make each piece unique. A matte black towel warming rack adds a nice touch and is a great addition to any bathroom. The double vanity features a maple finish. While the space was large, there was limited storage. To accommodate linens, the client opted to add a custom floor to ceiling cabinetry unit with glass panel doors in a matching maple finish. Gold fixtures are accented throughout the bathroom from the shower head to the faucets to the sconces.
