This room was over-filled with a grand piano, large scale furniture, 1980s vinyl windows, and French doors opened to yet another unused outdoor patio space and the beautiful view beyond was obstructed.

These homeowners wanted their master bathroom redesigned to include up-scaled finishes, functionality, and to be uniquely beautiful.
