Residential Bath
Project Details
The Lakewood bath transformation
The Challenge: Turn a forgettable shared bathroom into a space that doesn't make you cringe every morning.
The Location: Standard single-family home in Lakewood, CA (aka real people living real lives)
The Mission: Create a bathroom that works for an actual family while boosting resale value—because who doesn't want their investment to pay off?
The Solution: I ditched the builder-grade blah for a natural, calm color palette with traditional boho vibes. Think spa meets "I can actually afford this."
The Result: A space that feels airy and fresh instead of cramped and depressing. Now the whole family fights over who gets the longer shower—which is exactly the kind of problem you want to have.
What Made It Work:
Fixtures that look expensive but won't break the bank
A color palette that photographs well and lives even better
Smart layout choices that maximize space without moving walls
Design details that feel custom, not cookie-cutter
This bathroom proves you don't need a mansion-sized budget to create a space that makes you feel like you're living your best life—even at 6 AM on a Tuesday.
