Master Bathroom Redesign

  • OVERVIEW: Expand and redesign the existing second-floor master bathroom in a home built in the 2000s. The plan includes repurposing part of the master closet for a larger shower, a dedicated toilet room, and a freestanding tub.

  • CHALLENGES: Eliminate closet space and ensure adequate room for hanging clothes. Move the shower doorway and install full custom tile.

  • SOLUTIONS: Reconfigured the closet and allocated a 2’x5′ area for double hanging rods and shelves. Installed a beam in the proposed shower doorway area.

  • RESULTS: Using a double shelf minimized storage loss. Relocating the shower door created space for a toilet closet.

  • TIMELINE: 90-day design and 25-day build schedule

  • BUDGET:  $58k
