The homeowners called it the 'bathroom tango' — the door swung into the room, the vanity was in the way, and getting in meant a dance. This Mercer Island primary bath had the bones for something better. We just had to stop wasting the space it already had.
The old swing door was the first thing to go. A pocket door slides into the wall and gives back the full footprint of the room — inches that mattered more than any fixture we could buy.
A wall-hung toilet floats off the floor, and an all-glass shower keeps the eye moving to the back wall instead of stopping it at a curb. Two moves, and a tight primary bath felt like it had doubled.
No addition, no moving walls we didn't need to. We made the room the homeowners already had work for them — and it's the kind of restraint that costs less and lasts longer.
