Today I want to talk a little bit about shower walls, or, more specifically, the underloved, unappreciated shower stall. Now, I’ll admit that I understand the relative absence of shower stall style shower walls on design shows or what have you. If you have a big budget, you’re probably going to have the shower tiled, […]
When planning a major bathroom remodel, there are a lot of things to think about, and a lot of decisions to make – some of them fun, and some of them practical. The fun decisions are easy to make – this jacuzzi tub or that steam bath and so on. But unless you have some […]
It’s the age old question of bathroom design, and probably the one that depends the most on your personal taste: shower curtains or shower doors? There are arguments for or against either one, but despite the fact that they serve exactly the same function, they’re vastly different in style, cost, maintenance, and even user experience. […]
A lot of things go into making a bathroom beautiful, but not all of it has to be big. If you’re in the middle of a major remodel, forgetting about the little things can be a huge mistake – as is assuming you can’t give an outdated bathroom a facelift without a huge investment. The […]

Bathrooms, along with kitchens, are the most important design spaces in the home – they’re the most used, and have the most permanent fixtures (so the distinct design will stay even after you’ve moved […]
It’s fairly common knowledge that one of the fastest, easiest, and least expensive ways to enhance the appearance and value of your bathroom is to add new bathroom tiling, or replace your existing tile. But picking just the right bathroom tiles – the style, color, material, size, and installation type – can be a little […]

Victorian, Cape Cod, cottage style, and ranch homes all come with set, expected interior decor, just to name a few. But if your home doesn’t conform to any particular structural form, you have a lot more freedom to choose your own […]
Small spaces are sometimes the hardest to design.
