Dimly Bland Bath

See how a bland, outdated bathroom gets some bold, Brazilian style.

Save My Bath : Episode HSMBA-211 -- More Projects »
Stacey and Chip Finney are fed up with the design of their small bathroom. It doesn't reflect their personalities, and what's more, doesn't reflect the style of the rest of the home. Two years ago they moved into Chip's childhood home, a 125-year-old Victorian on a quiet tree-lined street. His father had converted the house into apartments for college kids after the family moved out, necessitating some quirky changes such as creating a bedroom out of an old living room, a staircase that leads to nowhere, and converting a pantry into bathroom. This is that bathroom.

This bizarrely designed space has lopsided linoleum, a hidden window (behind the plastic tub backsplash), and exposed radiator pipes behind the outdated toilet. Designer Krista Watterworth and Carpenter Steven Whittle sign on to take this blasé bathroom into a bold Brazilian-style bath.
