Bathroom at a Glance Who lives here: A couple Location: Birmingham, Alabama Size: 134 square feet (12 square meters) Designer: Leslie Davis of Deeply Southern Home
Before: The bathroom hadn’t changed since the house was built in the late 1980s. “The bathroom layout had been chopped up so badly that I knew we’d need to take down walls,” Davis says. The space had entrances to the primary bedroom, seen here on the left, and to a home office on the opposite side. This vanity area was separate from a tub-shower and toilet area in the center. On the opposite side was a small linen closet and pass-through to the office entry. The latter was a waste of space.
To get a sense of her clients’ style, Davis looked through their inspiration images and the style of the rest of their home. “My clients liked the warmth, coziness and charm of a cottage style, elevated by some more glamorous finishes,” she says. “But I could also see from the rest of their house that they liked clean, modern lines.” In addition, one of the homeowners mentioned that she loved blue and white.
