A Watery Blue Bathroom by Fiorito Interior Design

In March, I showed you a bathroom from a complete home renovation in a condo...that was the primary bathroom but here is a peek at the guest bathroom. In contrast to the gold and dark swirling stone seen in the previous bathroom here, the brief for this bathroom was cool and watery, reflecting the beautiful nature reserve and wetlands nearby.

A blue version of Fusion Wow Dark quartzite tops a deep, saturated blue vanity. Tiles of Statuario on the floor coordinate with a custom mosaic border that picks up the color of the veining. The same material wraps up the walls capped with a coordinating chair rail, as well as gracing the interior of the tub-shower. To reference the protected wetlands nearby, we created two niches, one to be used for showering and the other lower one to be used while bathing, that are lined with special handmade tiles of herons, cattails, dragonflies, lily pads, and frogs. These special relief mural tiles were hand glazed in hues specifically chosen to blend with our color scheme, and add a lyrical touch to this cool, tranquil space.


Happy designing!
