After: A tall bank of windows measuring just over 6 feet wide now lets in abundant sunshine. Refined Renovations’ in-house interior design service, Refined Interiors, custom-made the relaxed Roman shades, which have a traditional botanical pattern.
The window was installed two months before the cabinetry went in. That made it challenging to set the handmade cast-iron, wall-mounted sink, one of the key elements of the vision for an old English working kitchen.
“It is not flat; it is not plumb. There are no 90-degree angles. It’s very imperfect, which is part of the beauty,” says Laura Marshall, Refined Renovations’ director of marketing.
To get the sink centered and with an even reveal, and at the same time have its wall-mounted faucet perfectly line up with the plumbing, there was no room for error. Luckily, with a lot of coordination between the design and production teams, the installation went flawlessly, Marshall says.

Floor plan: To get a better understanding of the wet-room layout, let’s jump into the floor plan. A wet-room strategy can save space when both a generous shower stall and bathtub are desired. Gilmour enclosed the wet area on the right side of the bathroom with two hinged glass shower doors.
The area with the X shape is a double shower area, with the shower heads marked at the top and bottom of the plan. The shower area is about 3 feet wide, but because of the wet-room layout, it feels larger. “With the tub height, it’s not like they will bump their elbows on a wall when they are washing their hair,” Gilmour says. The freestanding tub occupies the area under the window. The shower floor slopes slightly toward the drain, represented by the square in the middle of the X shape on the plan.
The toilet wasn’t photographed, but it’s at the bottom left corner, with the entry from the bedroom to its right. The double vanity runs across the top of the plan.

The island has an oil-based stain that enhances the wood grain. Black metal swivel stools help make the island a gathering spot. The countertops are marble-look quartz. The island slab creates a continuous, expansive prep space. “I feel quartz is an economical and durable choice for families,” Reesey says.
A backsplash featuring matte white scallop-shaped ceramic tiles brightens the room and adds visual movement. An upgraded 30-inch induction range sits below a hood with wood trim that coordinates with the other wood details in the room. A stainless steel 36-inch counter-depth 4-door smart refrigerator (partially visible) is to the left of the sink.
A pair of modern pendant lights over the island coordinate with other black and brass finishes used in the room. (The kitchen also has recessed LED ceiling lights, which were digitally removed by the photographer to highlight other design details.)
Backsplash: Prado in Andalucia, Mirazur collection, Sonoma Tilemakers; pendant lights: Blaine 16-inch, Rejuvenation; paint colors: Wind’s Breath (walls) and Super White (trim), Benjamin Moore

An overabundance of tan and brown finishes and a large built-in tub made for a drab and heavy look in Michael and Yoshie Davison’s primary bathroom. Yearning for a light and airy feel with a fresh style, they turned to designer Shelley Vilov and project manager David Jordan, both of whom had helped the couple update another bathroom in their home.
The remodeling team replaced the built-in tub with a freestanding model that helped loosen up the layout and allow for a bigger shower. White marble-look porcelain tiles cover the floor and the walls wrapping the shower and tub area, creating a brighter look. Pale gray walls also brighten the space, while midtone gray vanities and chrome fixtures and details add touches of fresh, modern style.

“We wanted to elevate the space as much as possible with elements like a freestanding bathtub and a large vanity,” Fishman says. Looking into the shower, a striking marble-covered wall steals the spotlight. The marble also provides an elegant backdrop when the homeowners are looking in the vanity mirror across the room.
“We used this plaster on the walls throughout the house,” Fishman says. “They provided a jumping-off point for the bathroom’s palette.” The plaster honors the Spanish Revival architecture and adds texture, depth and an organic feel to the room. “In the shower, there’s a layer of waterproofing under the cement, then the plaster, then a sealer,” Fishman says. This product is similar to tadelakt, a waterproof Moroccan treatment.
