PROJECT OVERVIEW

This Brookhaven master bathroom renovation was designed for a couple who wanted to completely transform their outdated 1980s bathroom into a calm, modern retreat inspired by Korean and Japanese bathhouses.

Their vision was clear from the beginning — a space that felt clean, uncluttered, spacious, and intentional, with strong architectural lines and integrated storage to keep everyday life effortless.

The result is a serene spa environment that balances warmth, minimalism, and functionality.

HOMEOWNERS’ GOALS

The homeowners came to us wanting more than just a cosmetic update. They wanted a true lifestyle transformation.

Their priorities included:

  • Creating a spa-like experience at home
  • Opening up the space to feel larger and more breathable
  • Eliminating visual clutter through built-in storage solutions
  • Incorporating natural warmth and texture
  • Designing a curbless walk-in shower
  • Adding a freestanding soaking tub
  • Installing a double vanity for daily functionality
  • Maintaining a modern yet timeless aesthetic

They were also drawn to the calm simplicity of Korean and Japanese bathhouse design—clean lines, continuous materials, and purposeful restraint.

LAYOUT & SPACE IMPROVEMENTS

One of the biggest transformations happened in how the space functions.

The original bathroom felt compartmentalized and heavy, with outdated finishes and inefficient circulation.

We redesigned the layout to:

  • Create a fully open shower zone with no visual barriers
  • Introduce a curbless shower entry for seamless flow
  • Align fixtures symmetrically to enhance balance
  • Expand usable storage without crowding the room
  • Position the freestanding tub as a sculptural focal point
  • Improve lighting distribution and visual depth

The continuous flooring and frameless glass panel allow the eye to travel across the entire room, making it feel significantly larger and more peaceful.

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS

Several key design features define this project.

Vertical Wood-Look Panel Tile
Warm vertical porcelain panels were used throughout the wet areas to bring natural texture and spa character while maintaining durability and easy maintenance.

Curbless Walk-In Shower
The shower features dual rain heads, a handheld fixture, integrated niches, and a linear drain for a clean, uninterrupted floor plane.

Freestanding Soaking Tub
A minimalist oval tub provides a tranquil soaking experience and anchors the room visually.

Floating Double Vanity
Custom cabinetry offers generous storage while maintaining an airy modern presence. Integrated lighting and simple mirrors reinforce the clean architectural aesthetic.

Full Height Storage Cabinet
A built-in concealed cabinet ensures everyday items remain organized and out of sight, supporting the decluttered spa concept.

Integrated Storage Niches
Recessed shelving keeps essentials accessible while preserving the overall minimal design language.

THE RESULT

The finished space feels calm, refined, and deeply functional.

What was once an outdated and fragmented bathroom is now a personal retreat that supports both relaxation and everyday routines.

The homeowners now enjoy:

  • A brighter and more spacious environment
  • Thoughtful storage that reduces visual noise
  • A luxurious shower experience
  • A true soaking zone for unwinding
  • A modern design that will age gracefully

Most importantly, the bathroom now reflects how they want to live — intentionally, comfortably, and beautifully.
