PROJECT SF HOME: STRIPED BATHROOM

I've had this bathroom image saved in my inspiration file for awhile now. And since I'm going more dramatic in my new home...

I thought it was the perfect time to do something whimsical and fun...
Pedro the Painter started on the stripes yesterday and here's a sneak peek at how it's coming along. We used Simply White and Silhouette, both Benjamin Moore, for the paint.

What do you think?

Love! I would totally do this if I didn't have the tile I do in mine. Now all you need is one of our fab monogrammed shower curtains!x :)

I love it! I've been wanting to do something like this in the tiny half bath adjacent to my kitchen. It doesn't have a window, just a toilet facing the sink. Would black and white be too dramatic? My kitchen is gray and white. I've thought gray stripes but it might just be too much gray! What do you think?

Love the stripes with the gold in the inspiration image. Looking forward to seeing your finished bathroom. Our powder room is probably the most dramatic room in the entire house, with charcoal KW Imperial Trellis wallpaper, but it totally works in a small space.

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR. That's what I think! It looks completely amazing. I'm so excited to see how the rest of your apartment is coming together in Rue!

That is so cool! Not everyone has stripes in their houses. But I guess it makes a big difference in a room. Makes it more unique and chic! Lovely post, check out also 3D Rendering

Oh Crystal you are girl after my own heart! Ilove contrasting strips and I have been wanting to do them, but haven't found the right space. Though I did do tone on tone flat and gloss stripes in my daughters room.
