Salmon-color ceramic tile wasn't this bathroom's only problem. A cavelike shower and small tub were anything but a luxury. The challenge in this renovation was to remain within the bathroom's original footprint and do it all on a dime.
A new color palette of earthy neutrals and soft sage green give the bathroom the fresh look it so desperately needed. The cavernous shower was replaced by one that's much more fitting for the small space. The glass shower enclosure gives the room a lighter feel. The old tub was replaced with a luxurious soaking tub with an inexpensive field tile surround, which also was used in the shower and on the floor. Using a budget-savvy material for most of the tilework left cash in the budget for insets of pricier accent tiles, laid in a border around the tub and along the shower's back wall.
The salmon-color sink and toilet matched the wall tile, which meant they also had to go. The wall-mount sink also lacked the storage space needed in this small bathroom.

With the offending elements gone, the vanity area was also given an infusion of spa style, using both hard-edge and fluid shapes. Square niches carved out between wall studs provide storage and display space, and the series of squares is broken up with a chic round mirror. A curvaceous faucet also gives the area an organic look and is balanced by the vanity's crisp, straight millwork detailing.
