Like for most homes, the bathroom in our home needs to be a high-functioning room. It's where we typically begin and end our day. And I don't know about you, but our experience there can really set the tone for an efficient start to our day or a relaxing end.
While we LOVE designing for luxury, like most things in our home, we kept our master bathroom pretty simple and practical.
One thing we didn't want to miss out on is natural light. Initially, we put a window between the mirrors above the vanity and also a window above the stool (designer speak for toilet or commode).
After thinking through the placement of the latter window, we realized it would need blinds to provide a comfortable level of privacy. As a result, we decided to change the plan and raise both windows so that they would provide the natural light we desired at the height that doesn't require a blind.
The raised windows offers the function we need on the interior, however, the adjustment makes the exterior less attractive.
Landscaping can balance the look of the exterior allowing for raised windows and an attractive exterior elevation!

We're looking forward to having the open windows and natural light greet us in the morning as we begin our day!
Here's a sneak peak at some of the materials and fixtures we're considering for the master bathroom. Make sure to follow us on Instagram for more color and material selections.
