A Custom Primary Bathroom Designed with Architectural Arches, Heated Floors, and Spa-Inspired Features
As part of a whole-home remodel, this primary bathroom was completely renovated to replace its builder-grade design with warmer materials, custom details, and a more comfortable layout.
The tub and shower area was reworked to accommodate both a deep soaking tub and an expansive walk-in shower without making the room feel crowded.
Spacious Shower and Soaking Tub
The redesigned bathing area gives the homeowners the best of both options: a generous shower for everyday use and a freestanding soaking tub for unwinding.
Olive-colored ceramic tile brings warmth and depth to the space, while brass plumbing fixtures complement the room’s natural material palette.
Custom Rift-Sawn White Oak Vanity
A custom rift-sawn white oak vanity introduces natural warmth while providing storage designed specifically for the homeowners.
The wood’s clean grain pairs well with the olive tile and brass details, helping the different finishes feel connected.
Architectural Arches
Custom arches were built at the entrances to the water closet and walk-in closet, giving the bathroom a more distinctive architectural identity.
The same shape was repeated in the shower niche, carrying the detail across the room and creating a cohesive design.
Olive Tile and Living Brass Details
Olive ceramic tile gives the bathroom rich, understated color, while brass plumbing fixtures and living brass hardware add warmth.
Because living brass naturally develops a patina over time, the finish will continue to gain character as the bathroom is used.
Radiant Heated Floors
Radiant heat beneath the tile floor makes the bathroom more comfortable during colder Illinois mornings.
The warmth underfoot adds a practical layer of comfort that the homeowners can appreciate every day.
A Primary Bathroom Made Personal
From the heated floor and custom vanity to the repeated arches and reworked bathing area, every detail was selected to make this newly built home feel more personal.
