Cool Blue, Spa-Like Bathroom

Eastern medicine student Stacy Kon remodeled the inefficient main bathroom of her Los Angeles home into a relaxing retreat every bit as spa-like as the spaces in which she practices one of her passions: acupuncture. A lover of all things blue, Stacy chose a refreshing shade of robin's-egg blue for the walls and ceilings.

Prior to her main bathroom’s blue-toned remodel, Stacy's existing bathroom was cramped, inefficient and dark. To give it a spa-like update, she planned to tear out the adjacent closet, increasing the bathroom's width by two feet.

In order to maximize space inside the main bathroom, Stacy decided to have custom, frosted-glass doors installed just outside on a wall-mounted track. Since the doors slide left and right, rather than pushing inward and outward, they allowed for a galley-style set up with the vanity on the right and the soaking tub on the left.

Taking the bedroom's lack of space into consideration, Stacy put every square inch to good use. A shampoo and body wash niche was added to the wall inside the shower, covered in the same white subway tile as the rest of the area. Stacy loved the clean, crisp contrast of the white subway tiles against the blue walls and ceiling.
