Marcia Moore Design
GOLD WINNER
150-200 square feet
pdating a tired, builder-grade material bathroom into a
glamorous spa-like retreat was the priority for the homeowner
and task for a designer at Marcia Moore Design. While the space they
had to work with was grand, the products were drab. One of the client’s
must-haves was a freestanding tub with bubble jets as well as a
floating vanity. The designer removed the drop-in tub, tub surround
and large pillars to immediately open up the space. The first material
chosen was an iridescent accent tile. Cascading sconces complement
and draw attention to the waterfall feel of the accent tile. The cabinets
are custom made and include custom inserts that store and organize
the homeowner’s items at their exact specifications. Under-cabinet
lighting adds a soft glow. Shining chrome fixtures and additional
chrome accents heighten the spa feel. The bathroom now not only
looks stunning, but functions exactly as the homeowner wants.
Why the judges love it: The new design now is so open, clean,
fresh, sleek and sophisticated. We love the detail on the vanities and
under-cabinet lighting. See stlouishomesmag.com for resources.
