Featured Project 3
This growing family was in desperately needed both of their bathrooms remodeled. To accommodate this and allow them to continue living in the home and for a shortened remodeling period a simple ¾ bath (not pictured) was added in the basement. The main family bath was fully gutted and remodeled and a second sink was added. The layout remained relatively the same. An all new tiled shower with recessed niches, Corian countertops, and a dual flush toilet are featured in this bathroom. The master bathroom was extended into the master bedroom and was reconfigured to accommodate a large walk-in shower and double vanity. A dual flush toilet, Cambria countertops, cherry cabinetry, and tile shower and floor make this a relaxing get away.

This urban couple enjoys a contemporary lifestyle. Their outdated 1970's bathroom was in dire need of a remodel. The space was gutted to the studs and rearranged. The toilet was relocated to allow for a separate deep soaking tub and luxurious shower. A low water usage dual-flush toilet was selected to be eco-conscience. Contemporary tile designs fill the space and create a spa like feeling. Castle Custom Cabinets continue the contemporary feel with natural maple slab panel doors with brushed nickel linear hardware.

Featured Project 7
The master bath in this 1930's home was not large enough or an efficient use of the space. The bath was gutted to the studs and extended out farther over the main stairway and 1 ½” into the master bedroom to gain more space. A fully-tiled shower stall with a decorative tile accent and a bench seat was installed. Multiple showerheads, including one in the ceiling and a hand-held unit, were incorporated into the shower as well. A larger vanity with a Corian countertop and an under mount sink, along with a matching built-in cabinet next to the toilet, maximized the storage space. In-floor electric heat was added so that the bath would always be warm on chilly Minnesota mornings. Contemporary fixtures and finishes that still retained a touch of an older flair were used to finish off the space, including a recessed medicine cabinet with sconces on each side.

Featured Project 9
The designer's main objectives were to make the room feel brighter and more open, and to incorporate more modern elements of design. In-floor radiant heat was the perfect solution to eliminate the clumsy radiator. Cultured marble in a granite-look finish, which is installed in sheets and eliminates grout lines, was used on the shower floors and walls. A specially-designed shower door was installed to allow for a half-wall on the window side of the shower. This let in as much natural light as possible. Larger, darker floor tile opened up the room and created balance. The existing bathtub was reinstalled after undergoing minor alterations to allow for a new faucet. A toilet and sink were selected that fit the style of the house and new faucets for the tub and shower were installed to match the pedestal sink faucet they already had.

Featured Project 10
To begin this bath project, all the drywall was re-applied or patched and the fixture framing was removed from the bathroom. A new skylight was added to the bathroom space. Product selections began with the homeowners' favorite theme: “The Green Bay Packers.” All products were tasteful representations of the gold and green color scheme. The three-quarter bath, now featuring a new shower, a double vanity with gold glass vessel sinks, a new toilet and slate, ceramic, and glass tile accents, all in complementary colors, brings this space to life. A built-in cubby was added near the shower to store towels within easy reach. Dark hardware and natural maple trim complete the look and make this an appealing space, even if you are not a Packer Backer. As this home's location is in a historic district of St. Paul, MN, the overall project was governed by the Historic Registry.

This 3/4 bathroom was added over the existing first floor bath, enabling the new plumbing to tie into the existing plumbing.
