Bathroom Renovation Indian heritage into NY style
The family lives in upstate New York with their four-year-old daughter. They bought their home almost a decade ago, for its ample yard, location and move-in condition. They love being able to use the outdoor space in warm weather, when husband shows off his grillmaster skills and wife teaches daughter how to tend to their raised-bed garden of herbs, vegetables and flowers.
The home currently has only one full bathroom upstairs, but as the kid grows and Grandma and Grandpa visit more frequently — and for longer periods — they acknowledge the need to add a bathroom on the first floor, so they are willing to give up their library to make space for an accessible bathroom.
The owners hope their new bathroom will be both functional and serene. Since they already have a full bath with tub upstairs, they request a walk-in shower with a built-in seat. They also want in-shower storage for toiletries, as well as ample storage space for the products and accessories they use every day. They’re striving for a sense of luxury in this bathroom, as it is the one guests will use.
As for an overall design style, the wife would like to incorporate some visual elements of her Indian heritage into both the bathroom and kitchen, and the husband is happy to let his wife takes the lead on aesthetics. While organization and storage is paramount in terms of function, the rooms should still feel warm, inviting, and emblematic of what is most important to them: their family.
