The challenge

The emerald-green shaker vanity was the starting point — the room had to be built around it. It needed to read transitional: traditional lines with a few modern touches.

Functional requirements

  • A room built around the client's emerald shaker vanity
  • A mix of metals handled deliberately, not by accident
  • The client's green glass arabesque tile as a must-have
  • Marble surfaces that survive a family's daily use

The approach

The green glass arabesque tile she asked for anchors the backsplash and niche, paired with a herringbone shower feature and white handmade field tile set in dark grout. Metals are zoned so the mix reads as intentional: brass at the vanity, a nod to its traditional lines, and matte black in the shower.

Attention to detail

  • Zoned metal finishes — brass at the vanity, black at the shower
  • Arched brass-framed medicine cabinet — form and function, with concealed storage
  • Swinging shower screen for full tub-and-shower access
  • Extra-large niche to hold products without clutter
