We wanted this primary bath to feel quiet, warm and uncluttered. One grey matte tile runs across the walls, floor and a low built-in bench that slips past the glass at a tiled pier, with a lit niche above for essentials. A fluted natural oak vanity and a paper lantern pendant bring in warmth, while matte black fixtures keep the lines crisp. Below, we share each piece we chose and the thinking behind it.
