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.
