Here’s the third bathrooom renovation submission we received in response to last week’s request. It’s a 6-by-6-foot space next to the kitchen that was a total disaster when the house was purchased. The new owner did a gut renovation, creating custom cabinetry and using a mix of travertino romano and travertino niche marble across the walls and surfaces. The only pieces that are not in place yet are the frameless shower door and the brushed nickel fixtures from Restoration Hardware. It would be interesting to see how this fits in with the aesthetic of the rest of the house.

  1. Travertine belongs in long island mcmansions. Let me guess, this is somewhere in bayridge? The owners saw a lot of marble on their honeymoon in italy and wanted to bring it home. Travertine tile works when it’s 400+ years old in the Italian countryside, not in your tiny house here.

    I have to agree with 11:42. If you use the word “classy”, you’re not.

  2. The rectangular tiles are very attractive and I love the marble counter top.
    The most elegant bathroom I ever used was in an old elegant hotel in London. everything was marble and the nickel faucets and shower heads (from the 1920’s) were massive and looked like they came from the engine works of an ocean liner.
    Marble, when done right, is incomparably beautiful, in my opinion.
