Sometimes, a bath is so outdated that it’s best to strip it to the frame and just start over. That’s what architect Matt Costanzo did when renovating this bath along with designers Sumner Starling and Anne Hurley with Starling Interiors. The clients needed more space, and the only way to achieve that was by rewriting the floorplan. In additon to relocating plumbing, Matt says, “Closets were moved to the interior and walls were taken down to let in more natural light,” The new configuration also allowed them to create a separation from the bedroom and bath with a dressing hall and closets.

Using a neutral backdrop with paint choices, tile, and countertops, the designers added contrast with white oak cabinets and flush white oak doors. The end result? A beautiful retreat that is both dramatic and inviting.
