Bathroom

Even the bathroom is enlivened by a direct connection to the outdoors.

Bathed in daylight, the powder room includes Heath Ceramics wall tile and a custom slab vanity and mirror.

Up two wooden steps is a bathtub with views of the nearby steeple.

In the bathroom, generous windows and skylights create the illusion of an outdoor shower.

The master bath includes an envy-worthy cedar soaking tub from Roberts Hot Tubs.

The bathrooms are dark-tiled with timber-lined walls to create a sense of intimacy and privacy.

“Tōrō House is a study in the harmony of dualities,” says architect Mark English. Inspired by Japanese design, the home harmoniously unites with nature—as seen here in the master bathroom, where the tub overlooks the outdoor space.

In one of the home's bathrooms, a sink from Lindsey Wherrett Ceramics gracefully sits under a circular mirror from Clearlight Designs. The Ilde Wood S pendant is by David Abad.

The guest bathroom continues the concrete countertops seen in the kitchen, but paired with handmade tiles that range in tone from green to yellow.

Boat design inspired the concept for the bedroom and bathroom. “Boats are where great design meets small spaces,” explains de la Vega.

Vertical wood slats at the upper floor, with its gabled roof, play with transparency and continue motifs found on other floors.

In a powder room, a terrazzo basin makes a statement.

In the bathroom, a mottled Japanese tile from Academy Tiles brings texture and warmth. Plywood makes for an excellent material for shelving.

Ann Sacks terrazzo tile covers the floor and backsplash. The sinks were fabricated by a local artisan, Cement Elegance.
