Showroom Update: Contemporary Kitchen
March 1, 2017Why Choose Universal Design
March 15, 2017One of our favorite designs taking shape in our new showroom at The Shoppes at Memorial Villages is what we call our “beach bathroom” display. We love the laid-back vacation vibe, which is a bit of a departure from the ultra-trendy ‘spa retreat’ bathroom but achieves many of the same ends—a relaxing space to retreat for privacy and pampering.
Think “Weekend in Galveston”
The color and design of our breezy beach bathroom call Galveston, or perhaps Key West to mind; in fact, the door style on display is the Key West with Louvered inserts in Aqua Shade. A Dekton from Cosentino in Makai gently picks up the blue from the cabinetry.
Hidden Treasure
Interior drawer lights that turn on automatically when you open a drawer; special routing for the wiring that snaps into place and for a plug-in-and-go installation, proprietary to Wood-Mode; almost wish we could leave it open so you could see how intricate the design and engineering are.
Drawer-within-a-drawer interior organizers to keep cosmetics and personal care items separate and organized.
Kohler Sink + Mirror
Another design choice that contributes to the beachy vibe of this bathroom is the wading pool sink by Kohler. Not only does it resemble beach glass, the shallow organic shape feels ocean-inspired. The shape, and the way the bowl sits in the countertop, quietly suggests a wave lapping at the shore.
Kohler is also giving us a beautiful lighted Verdera mirror, a new product with unique features: optimally bright lighting eliminates harsh shadows, optional dimmer switches offer control, an inset electrical outlet adds convenience, an adjustable pull-out mirror (with or without magnification) accommodates different heights, and adjustable glass shelves make the unit entirely customizable.
