Zen Oasis
I'm not a very creative person but I knew how I wanted the bathroom to feel. I described the "zen" feeling I wanted and Botond
translated it into the design and textures that were perfect. He
respected my budget of time and money and did not try to sell me on
more or have to extend the time line. The work Marvelous Home
Makeovers did was amazing. I love to show it to anyone that comes
over. It makes me feel like I am in a calming luxury hotel bathroom.
The small details, such as cutting the tile for the shower floor to be
smaller brick work pattern than the floor, are what ultimately set
Marvelous Home Makeovers apart. These are details many people may not notice if they are missing, but these details are what take the project from being nice, to amazing.

While the client described a “relaxing zen oasis”, there were no specific design ideas. The space was relatively small and so was the budget. The feel from the design phase was captured through a brushed glass vessel sink sitting atop Santa Cecilia granite counters. The mirrors are custom framed using additional wood from the cabinets.
In order to lay the tile floor, the sub-flooring structure needed to be reinforced. The floor tiling was cut into brick-size pieces and laid in a brick pattern on the floor of the bathroom. Same pattern continues inside the shower with a smaller tiles size.
The wall of the shower is constructed from glass blocks, providing separation but retaining the sense of openness in the bathroom. The shower is accented with a Raja Red slate column, carrying the slate into the opposing shower wall. The worries of the day are washed away with brushed nickel dual shower heads.
