Ensuite Evolution - Master Ensuite Series # I




  I've decided to create a series on the renovation of our Master Ensuite, so with out further ado...

When we built our home 9 years ago 
we knew the neighbourhood we wanted to live in and raise our family. 

Funnily enough, we ended up buying the house next door to where I lived when I was a kid. 
So, we began by taking a wrecking ball to it and started from scratch.


We love our home, but I have to admit my taste has really changed over the years, so there is usually some sort of project going on.

The master ensuite is something that has been on the list for a few years but as we all know 
bathrooms are
 a 
MAJOR EXPENSE 
so we agreed to wait...do it once...exactly how we want.


What we started with was corner shower with white subway tile, one sink with a wall mounted faucet, a free standing claw foot tub with floor mounted faucet & ceramic tile on the floor.  

Before







My thoughts are veering towards this:

lots of pretty items to display, wall sconces

glass shower, great ceiling fixture & drapery

steam line freestanding tub

lots of marble

black millwork

And these are what the other half desires

As you can see we are on completely different pages other than the black and white colour scheme.

Wish me luck on merging our distinctly opposite styles!

  2. Ah, yes. The constant "blending" of the two. I'm sure it will look fabulous in the end! Love the direction you're headed.
