SLATE-ISH GREEN BACKSPLASH!
AWESOME NEW PRODUCT - featured in my design for BATHtastic 'From Start to Finish'.
A masculine, modern, innovative design.
Alternative to stone & ceramic tile products. Made from the post industrial waste of paper laminate. This paper laminate is made from FSC certified paper or recycled paper and are used for countertops, cutting boards, skateboard ramps, and in various manufacturing processes. Trimmings from manufacturer and fabricator processing are remanufactured into tile for wall and floor applications. http://www.slate-ish.com/ . I also placed the Soot tiles to the front of the tub and a 20" wide border around the room at a 40" height to add interest and texture to the room. Other innovative design elements in room - metal tiles by Carina works.http://www.carinaworks.com
EASY INEXPENSIVE - HOW TO CHANGE VANITY LOOK
Cool wall treatment
A bathroom I designed for BATHtastic
The challenge was to transform this bathroom into a warm relaxing retreat using modern elements.
I found these great polycarbonate panels, by painting the back panel white the dark wood circles really stand out. It is now a piece of art! The semi-vessel crisp white sinks and dark wood vanity blend well with the wall treatment. I repeated the polycarbonate panels on the opposite wall, replacing the sliding shower glass doors with the polycarbonate. Think outside the box! A modern bathroom design that isn't cold and sterile!
