Bathroom • 4048 Farmouth Dr, Los Angeles, CA 90027
An unsealed concrete floor grounds the space. Hand-troweled lime plaster walls rise softly from it. They create a matte backdrop. A dark, polished marble vanity commands the room.
Raw timber shelving provides stark utility. Soft linen towels introduce a pliable texture. Gleaming chrome fixtures offer a precise finish. A cast iron tub anchors one corner.
This room guides your hand from raw texture to refined surface.
Design Philosophy
The design builds a tactile story. Raw textures unfold into polished surfaces. This movement reveals material honesty. It directly applies material contrast, creating a sensory journey.
Spatial Narrative
The eye is drawn from the rough concrete floor. It moves up the soft plaster walls. It culminates at the dark, polished marble vanity.
Light Study
Morning light enters as a diffused, ambient glow. It softens the plaster walls. Evening brings sharp, directed spotlights onto the polished marble, creating defined reflections.
Living Vignette
Your hand slides from the rough timber shelf. It then catches the sharp gleam of a chrome faucet.
