PROJECT OVERVIEW

A growing family approached us with a simple problem: can we add a simple primary bath to our house with lots of natural light and some storage space? After several iterations, we landed on a scheme with an asymmetrical gable that allows the ceiling in the bath area to be vaulted. A triangular clerestory window up high as well as a skylight bring lots of natural light into the space. Pops of color at the shower and behind the vanity make things fun while natural wood tones at the linen closet and vanity bring warmth to the room.

A datum on the walls corresponds to the bottom of the gable and serves to cap the tile in the shower as well as the volume that serves as the linen closet.
