We love how a little sunshine can change a small room, and we wanted to share how we'd shape this ADU bath around it. A skylight pours light over a wall of glossy mustard tile, while a dark walnut vanity floats below and brushed nickel catches a soft glow throughout. A clear glass panel keeps the shower open and airy. Below, we share each piece we chose and the thinking behind it.

Illustrative rendering, not a photograph. Illustrative rendering of a mid-century modern ADU bath with a skylight, a rounded rectangle brushed nickel mirror between two tube wall sconces, a dark walnut floating vanity with a white top and a brushed nickel widespread faucet, eucalyptus in a white vase, a soap bottle, a brushed nickel towel bar with a white towel, a white two-piece toilet, and a walk-in shower with vertical mustard-yellow tile, a brushed nickel rain head and handheld on a slide bar, a frameless glass panel, a low curb and a white terrazzo-look floor. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

Notes

  • Silver oval vanity tray, Body Pod smart scale, Cotton canvas laundry bag, and Stainless steel soap dish aren't shown in the illustration.
  • Body Pod smart scale: listing title does not state a color; confirm the finish on the product page before ordering. (Assigned only to this room.)
  • The image is an illustrative rendering, not a photograph. Products may differ in color, size and detail from the render.
  • 02: The render shows two sconces; one is listed. Plan on two for the look shown. Hardwired; hire an electrician.
  • 07: The listing is a 36" floating vanity with an integrated white resin top and sink; the render top reads as stone. Check that 36" fits your space.
  • 08: These are 3x6 tiles in boxes of 10, about 1.25 sq ft per box (computed; the listing does not state coverage). Plan on about 88 boxes (estimate; measure your walls).
  • 09: The listing is a sliding frameless glass door; the render shows a fixed glass panel. It was the closest match we found.
  • The white terrazzo-look floor in the render is not linked; we did not find a matching listing.
  • 15, 18, 19, 21: Some finishes differ from the brushed nickel in the render. The tissue cover is chrome, the toilet brush and trash can are satin nickel, and the caddy is stainless.
  • Not shown in the render: hand towels, bath mat, trash can, basket, toothbrush holder, toilet brush, tissue box cover, candle, caddy, hooks, toilet paper holder and squeegee.
