Designing Sofia’s bathroom in our new home was so fun for me! I knew when I began the design of this space I wanted to do something fun, practical, and timeless. In a way this bathroom reminds me of our honeymoon when we visited Paris which was unintentional but also very special. The color scheme I decided on was brass lighting along with black accessories. My inspiration for this space really came through different elements I knew I wanted and I knew Sofia would LOVE. I wanted something with clean lines, and a bit modern. Completing the space with a brass light fixture as well as a nice over-sized tall scalloped black mirror for above the vanity helped really tie this space together.
If you have been following along with me on insta stories you know the subway tile you see was actually something I added after I had picked out the tile and the vanity. I am SO happy I pulled the trigger on the subway tile because it really completes the space and is a beautiful focal point. Having never had subway tile in a home before I was anxious to see how it looked when completed. It is so easy to clean, and what is great about it is you can still add in fun pops of color within this space and not worry about anything clashing. Subway tile is also perfect for a kids bathroom because it is SO easy to clean and you never have to worry about the walls getting water on them because the tile is their to protect that.
The flooring was done in a herringbone pattern and what is great about this tile color is it hides dirt very well and you are not having to constantly clean it. I am in LOVE with this pattern!
The only challenges we had in this space were drilling in the mirror into the subway tile. Andy had to buy a specific bit at Home Depot for this but once that was purchased it was very easy to drill into. I recommend researching how to do this before you drill anything into tile. The other challenge was installing the light which the builders did for us because you need a certain tool to cut into the tile and install a light. This required a builder and a technician.
