Kitchen & Bath Business - April 2019 - 89

LEFT Concealed grooming

stations are on each side of
the floating cypress vanity,
and a wide sink accommodates two faucets.

BELOW Custom glass panels

were used to surround the barrier-free shower and toilet area. A
large, backlit mirror is mounted
to a shallow framework that
conceals recessed lighting.

MODERN SPA MASTER

While bold colors and masculine details permeate the kitchen, the client
wanted his bathroom to be a female-friendly, serene and sophisticated space.
"He wanted something light and inviting like a spa, so we created an open,
airy master retreat by removing a corner water closet and an awkwardly deep
linen closet," said Bustamante.
A pair of pullout cabinets on each side of the floating cypress vanity conceals
grooming stations for him and her, and taller units store linens and other supplies. The extra-wide sink with two faucets can accommodate a couple both
using the bathroom.
The use of custom glass panels instead of actual walls to surround the
barrier-free shower and frosted glass around the toilet area allowed both to
gain space and transfer light around the room. All the doors in the master
bath are wide with a full swing so it is easy to access all the spaces.
The flooring is a large-format porcelain that is easy to clean, and the custom backlit mirror creates a cool glow that serves as a subtle nightlight the
homeowner can see from his bedroom.
"We reduced the original closet opening, gaining wall space for a modern freestanding tub," added Bustamante. "The faucets and hand-held
shower feature a knurled detail that lends a bit of biker industrial to the
modern surroundings."
LESSONS LEARNED & HURDLES CLEARED

According to the designer, all his projects are a learning experience, and he tries
to do something different each time. In this case, the major use of black in the
kitchen was somewhat of a rule breaker.
"During construction, all the black surfaces seemed so dusty, so in the
future I would protect those better so as not to panic," said Bustamante.
Although he was working with a blank slate, he said removing multiple
walls was a challenge.The property is on a slab, so a jackhammer was needed
to get the shower in place in the master bath. A lot of the walls removed were
structural, but the designer said the homeowner was more than happy to
invest in whatever it took to make his dream home come to life. 
"During the project, the construction noise was not welcome in the retirement community,"said Bustamante,"but now when my clients comes home
late at night, his neighbors appreciate a rev of his engine to let them know he
is home safe. He is a 'rebel' they have come to adore."
