White Kid's Bathroom With Green Tile Floor

This kid's bathroom also functions as the home's main bathroom, so the design needed to be playful but also tasteful. Gold fixtures and olive green floor tiles add just the right amount of sophistication. Inexpensive subway tiles, Ikea vanities and Kohler fittings kept the project budget friendly.
