Bath Reno #7: Traditional in Park Slope

At $13,000, today’s bathroom renovation comes in a little higher than some of the others we’ve featured. Judging from the before (on the jump) and after pics of this Park Slope reno, it looks like it was well worth it—we think the owner did a great job of using traditional fixtures while also creating a very clean, light feel. Here’s what he told us about what materials went into the place:
The wall tiles are Italian “subway” style tiles, floors are white carrera mosaic with negro marquina inserts, with matching counter. All the tile is from Fuda Tile in Jersey. Fixtures are all Kohler except wc which is by Porcher. Faucets are Kohler Pinstripe series. I chose to glass block over the window because I didn’t want the maintenance headache of a window in the tub surround but I wanted to maintain some natural light. Bath is vented to the ouside and includes a central ac register so ventilation is not an issue. The enclosed steam riser makes for a comfortable radiant heated wall in the winter.
Nice job!

If only we could add a little race-baiting to this thread, it would be luxe B’stoner.
That bathroom is racist!
11:37, I know where the look comes from. My point is that very soon there will be a new trend and the “restaurant” kitchen in your house will look extremely dated.
We have a bathroom in lost-and-found. In order to identify yourself as the true owner, please tell us how many sinks it takes to screw in a lightbulb.
Is it just me or does it say something about human nature when a simple discussion about a bathroom devolves into a travesty like this “discussion”? You should all be very proud of yourselves.
Actual owner here.
To answer a couple of the questions,overall room size is 12′-6 x 5′.
Tub is a 60″ Kohler Portrait Whirpool.
Countertop is a spanish marble, negro marquina is one of the common names.
It’s nice to have your own little spot. I was thinking if we had one sink, I would not get any space as it would get overwhelmed with oogie girl things. I have empty drawers and cabinets..and I’m loving it……
Love the look of that tub! We are looking for something very similar–modern lines, deep for soaking, but to fit within our tight length/width specs. Would you mind sharing where you bought it? Esp. if it’s somewhere to see it in person (I’m wary of buying something like this online, sight unseen). Thanks!
We gut renovated a bathroon (kept the tub) for about $10k, incuding Memoirs sink/toilet and some fancy chrome fittings. The price of this job is in line with that. We did need some plumbing and electrical work and the walls were in really bad shape.
Is that Fuda Tile from Jersey or are you just glad to see me?
