This bath went from the builder standard to a simple, clean-lined retreat. The squared off shape of the plumbing fixtures, hardware, and linen weave patterned porcelain tile provide a bit of a modern touch. We enlarged the shower back into the closet and cleaned up the details.</div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBQrg85mfKKZt5PxkLwFkNMQNPHz1jAhpJC2pudH_YTTca58dIrKT4bcQIhBHukj7d9sZgcy6pM1HC0AV51JosuZpv5jjikzqbbFOizq-UwSgbh1NJn4ifnyb0591ksn_j0j24jjHKn_mZ/s1600/DSCF0289.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBQrg85mfKKZt5PxkLwFkNMQNPHz1jAhpJC2pudH_YTTca58dIrKT4bcQIhBHukj7d9sZgcy6pM1HC0AV51JosuZpv5jjikzqbbFOizq-UwSgbh1NJn4ifnyb0591ksn_j0j24jjHKn_mZ/s400/DSCF0289.JPG" t8="true" width="300" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Shower before was a tiny box.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxwKu4mB_HFVI7HfjSKCsq-32eZ_xwxlKh7mssO95qnCPlkP2PJGQDxGkqdCf70vzsi2h4LZ6gvTbmeuEUttRa225dKNvmsFQvrovXtWhg0-SIXd8AhJiZa473-wuy6zBj5Iy_G9xERMr8/s1600/DSCF0290.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxwKu4mB_HFVI7HfjSKCsq-32eZ_xwxlKh7mssO95qnCPlkP2PJGQDxGkqdCf70vzsi2h4LZ6gvTbmeuEUttRa225dKNvmsFQvrovXtWhg0-SIXd8AhJiZa473-wuy6zBj5Iy_G9xERMr8/s400/DSCF0290.JPG" t8="true" width="276" /></a></div><br /> Builder "details" like the sheetrock shelves or indentations at the ceiling were cleaned up.
