Kitchen & Bath Business - January 2018 - 75

Solutions

The sidewalls are still fairly short, and the new
ceiling quickly begins to pitch. Particularly in the
shower where tiles climb the walls and extend
across the pointed ceiling, the use of mitered edges
and the angled layout were tricky. Outside the
shower, the ceiling reaches even higher, and the
three walls display a variety of angles. Henry drew
the design in AutoCAD, and despite the difficulty,
appreciates the effect the ceiling provides.
"Before it was just a flat, short space, and I think
opening up the ceiling made all the difference for
the room,"she said."In the end, it just has so much
character because of those details."
The short sidewalls measure just 5 feet 11 inches, which created a challenge for locating the mirror and lighting. Henry rested the vanity mirror
on the counter at an angle so that taller people can
use it. She chose glass sconces that point the light
up and placed them as high as possible without
getting a hot spot on the angled ceiling.
CHALLENGE 2: A NEW FLOOR PLAN
FOR MORE SPACE

Although the footprint has not changed dramatically since the renovation - with the most striking
difference being the ceiling height - Henry gained
a few square feet by removing a linen closet and
flipping the floor plan. Vent pipes were relocated,
which she said was not a costly fix considering
what was gained in space. The combination of
shifting the pipes a bit on the side of the house and
removing the bulky tub provided more room in the
shower area. She also picked up a bit of space because there had been a cavity behind each sidewall.
"This is an older home, so we weren't really sure
what we were going to find," she said. "It was nice
to pick up the extra space."
Cast-iron piping revealed when the walls
came down was removed and replaced with PEX
flexible pipes. With the limited additional square
footage, Henry was also able to recess the toilet
into a niche and add a bench in the shower. One of
her goals had been to separate the toilet and vanity,
which she did by moving the vanity to the opposite
wall where the closet had been. That change had
the added benefit of allowing her to select a larger
cabinet as well.

RESOLUTION 3: ADDING LIGHT
AND INSTALLING VINTAGE CHARM

Although the new ceilings created an open feel,
the bathroom's only natural light comes through
a round window that takes advantage of the shower's dormer effect and nice exterior views. Henry
maintained a bright atmosphere by selecting a
light palette with subtle gray walls, a pale finish on
the vanity, a quartzite countertop with gray-green
veining and brushed limestone floors.
For the shower, she selected timeless, classic
tile styles. White subway tiles were installed with
a random mix of 50 percent matte and 50 percent glossy to add interest. For the lower shower
walls, she chose to include a bit of color with
penny tiles.
Henry added vintage detail to some of the cabinet fronts, too, which feature raised scrolls. She explained that including the details on all the doors
would have been excessive, so she opted to use
them as accent pieces. The entire vanity features
an antique-looking, milk-paint finish.
In addition to the sconces, the bathroom is lit by
recessed lighting in the ceiling. With the neutral
finishes, added light fixtures, clear glass window
and vaulted ceiling, Henry achieved the airy loft
bathroom style she sought even without the benefit of a significant gain in the footprint.

ABOVE Henry designed the accent door fronts for the vanity
and finished the piece in milk
paint to impart vintage charm.
The old-fashioned faucet that
looks like a water pump is one
of her favorite features.
BOTTOM LEFT With a low, flat
ceiling, the original bathroom
did not reflect the home's
A-frame architecture, while
the dark tile and bulky tub
deck made the room feel even
more cramped.
BELOW When the walls and

ceiling were removed, Henry
found a bit of square footage
and a lot of height.
