Pool Side Bath Redo

7/24/2010

3 Comments

 
I've been asked to help redesign the pool side bathrooms at Crooked River Ranch...both the men's and women's.  (Rumor has it the golf ladies refuse to use the current bathroom as they don't consider it nice enough.) The local Lions Club is taking this on as a service project. The budget is tight.

Certainly, the rooms could use some color. The combination of no windows and a cement floor painted dark gray isn't helping the lack of light. 


I'm recommending repainting the floors a sand color, and the walls and ceilings a beachy blue; specifically Yolo Colorhouse Water .03.

Picture
For both rooms, a teak bench to replace the cheap, plastic bench, and a striped shower curtain for a bit of fun.

A larger mirror above the sink will help bounce more light around the room.

Ideally, I'd also like to add a backsplash for a punch of color, but that may not be in the budget.

These bathing beauties to adorn the walls of the women's bathroom.

Actually, I'd like the bathing cap photo up high on the larger mirror with Hello Beautiful painted over the lower portion. A little positive reinforcement never hurts.

The men's bathroom is smaller. Just one vintage photo for the boys.


Sometimes simple designs are the best.

Hey, Charmaine, I love this new blog look, and the suggestions you're giving them for this cramped, dark, windowless room. Fun ideas, cool bathing girls... Now, if they'd just let you punch a hole in the wall for a window!!! Or add a cool mirror...

I'm liking where you are going with this Charmaine! Before you completely rule out a fun backsplash, you should check places like the Habitat for Humanity ReStore. Since it would be such a small area, it's possible that you could find some fun tile remnants there that would work. Or maybe contact some of the stone manufacturers that may have a remnant they would sell rediculously cheap. It could happen!! Keep up the great work!
