About this Design:
The master bathroom renovation transformed the existing cavernous space into a richly paneled and mirrored retreat more appropriately scaled for the space. Custom beveled mirrors create an interesting reveal around the perimeter of the vanity area, creating a reflective view of the space. The larger mirror measures approximately 54” H X 41” W. Each mirror works to greatly enhance the expansiveness of the room. Surrounded by cherry cabinetry, the mirrors seem to glow. This effect is created by mounting the light fixtures directly on the mirror, which doubles the light output and highlights the intricate pattern of the mirror. The use of beveled seams breaks up the large pieces of glass into an interesting pattern. The beveled edges of the mirrors mimic the raised panels in the cabinetry, while the buttons at the intersection of seams reflect not only the curves and arches in the space, but also the designer’s thoroughness in attention to detail.

About this Design:
Mirrors are important elements in many interior projects, but become even more indispensable in restaurant projects. The use of peach/copper toned mirrors in this project allowed us to visually expand the space as well as allow patrons facing the wall to obtain a (see and be seen) position in what would be considered a bad seat if the use of mirrors were not employed. The mirror also allowed an elaborate glass mosaic mural to visually float within the same space. The availability of a copper toned mirror allowed for a better blend with the restaurant’s color scheme.
