Master Bath Designed on a Dime

This intrepid DIYer had no fear of communicating her design needs to her contractor, and she had no problem drawing the floor plans and tile layouts herself. She just needed help pulling all the materials together and making sure that once she’d spent tens of thousands of dollars on the construction of her master bath remodel that she’d have spent it well.  She also didn’t want to waste hours hemming and hawing over the endless options out there. She was motivated to make some decisions and move on.

It turned out that a simple Quick Action Session was the perfect fit and all she needed to complete the design for her fabulous and elegant master bath. QA sessions give us ninety minutes with a client to answer whatever design questions are top of mind: shop for materials, coordinate colors, edit through options, pour over plans, or give a professional review of design ideas. In this case the homeowner and her husband had already agreed upon the gorgeous leathered-granite countertops, and what she needed was the floor tile, shower tile, wall colors and cabinet colors to go with the beautiful stone.

Since she was on a budget (the stone was their big splurge) we decided to spend the session at her local Lowes. They had a nice selection of tile options and she was willing to work within their collections. Because we were working off an anchor element (the stone counter – she brought a sample with her) we were able to sort through the options efficiently and choose tile and paint to coordinate with the stone. Within ninety minutes she had her options in hand!

Once that was done she had no fear of choosing the fixtures and other elements for her bathroom and closet. Of course, if she’d needed it we could have scheduled another QA Session to shop (in store or online) for the faucets, light fixtures, shower trim, toilet, towel bars, cabinet hardware, and all the other design details that go in to a finished bathroom.

Think you might need a little help from a pro? Consider booking a QA Session. You’ll be amazed at what we can accomplish in an hour and half and then, if that’s all you need, you don’t have to spend another dime on a designer. :-) Shoot us an email if ninety minutes is all that is standing between you and some confident DIY design decisions.

To your happy home!
