lakeside spa

A freestanding limestone tub sets a spa-like tone in the primary ensuite. “Black and white bathrooms can often feel cold, but not with this tile,” says designer Candace Plotz. “It adds so much warmth, and I’m drawn to the interplay of pattern and scale, which is the reason I extended it up the shower wall and juxtaposed it with narrow tiles on the adjacent walls.”

Sightlines from the primary bedroom ensure glimpses of the ensuite’s regal cut-crystal chandelier. When a bath is drawn, its sparkle reflects and shimmers in the water. Lavish twin vanities are topped with circular mirrors to catch and release the room’s abundant natural light.

The slip-resistant hexagonal floor tiles impart interest, and the brass hardware galvanizes the room with easy elegance.

The rough-hewn stool fits in perfectly with the aesthetic and has special meaning. “My dad found some old, recycled telephone poles that we cut and painted to use as stools and end tables inside and out.”
