DECORATING
Tip #1
Tip #2
MAKING ROOM The old swing doors were switched for space-saving pocket doors, and open glass panels replaced the original shower enclosure, flooding the room with light. Other small gestures add big impact: angling the tub slightly created extra space by the vanity, while the clean lines of the slatted wall and window shade make the room feel airy.
COUNTERCULTURE “I’ve noticed people rarely use double sinks at the same time,” Jo says, and yet countertop space is always at a premium. Installing two big-box-store vanities side by side – unified by a single quartz countertop and backsplash – allows one person to wash up at the single sink while another makes use of the extra countertop space to apply makeup.
Tip #3 PATTERN PLAY The same marbled porcelain tile used in different sizes and patterns presents a unified look, but achieves a variety of visual effects. The herringbone floor pattern visually widens the space, as do the matching baseboards; while the large-format 24-by-48-inch shower tiles create an open, uncluttered look. DESIGN, Alcorn Home.
