BERKELEY · BATHROOM RENOVATION · CONCEPT

A quieter start to the day.

The same footprint. A different feeling. A material-led renovation with room to breathe.

Concept setting: Berkeley, California
Scope: Space planning, materials & interior details

THE DESIGN BRIEF

A room with a purpose.

This study explores what can change without moving the room itself. The window, bathtub, vanity, and shower stay in their original positions. Dated finishes give way to a simpler, more connected palette.

Pale surfaces carry daylight through the room. A timber vanity introduces warmth and practical storage, while clear shower glazing keeps sightlines open. The design concentrates the investment on the elements used and touched every day.

THE TRANSFORMATION

One room. Two possibilities.

Proposed bathroom: pale large-format tile, floating timber vanity and clear glass shower — AI-generated before-and-after concept. The camera, room layout, window, and fixture positions are retained; finishes are reimagined. This is not a record of a completed renovation.

Existing-condition concept: the same room and camera with dated square tiles and oak finishes — AI-generated before-and-after concept. The camera, room layout, window, and fixture positions are retained; finishes are reimagined. This is not a record of a completed renovation.

BEHIND THE DESIGN

The thinking behind the room.

Keep what works

The concept retains the room’s geometry and fixture positions instead of treating a new layout as the starting point.

Make daily rituals easier

Usable vanity storage and considered lighting give everyday objects a place.

Reduce visual interruptions

A consistent tile palette and clear glass make the room read as one space.
