Timeless Elegance - Algonquin Master Bath

For our clients, the main objectives in remodeling this Algonquin master bath included maximizing storage while achieving a more open feeling. And, of course, they wanted a stand-out design with impact!

Algonquin Master Bath

In their original space, the long, narrow bathroom had separate compartments for tub, toilet, and tub, leaving the room feeling cramped. The knee space in the vanity subtracted from valuable storage and the tub at the end of the room took up a lot of square feet.

Getting It Right

The new layout eliminates the large tub, and, instead, moves the shower into it's place. By using a frameless glass shower door, the large shower keeps the room feeling open.

The former shower location behind the door is now used for linen storage. The new cabinets are less deep than the old shower which gives the room more width. This widening effect is accentuated with large 24" x 24" floor tile set on the diagonal.


Elegant Impact

The transitional design of this room seamlessly combines traditional and contemporary elements. The clean lines of the cabinetry and the expanse of white Statuario porcelain tile throughout the floor, walls, and shower set the stage for more traditional inspired details. The goose-neck faucets paired with the taller back-splash is reminiscent of antique marble sinks. The arabesque accent tile in the shower attracts the eye upon entering the master bath. Crystals and delicate curves sparkle on the accent light near the linen cabinet. Drawers and moldings used with the cherry cabinetry give the impression of furniture.

Thoughtfully assembled, this master bath is a timeless beauty that will serve our clients for many years.

According to a recent survey by LightStream Home Improvement Trends, the top home renovations continue to be in our kitchens and baths. And the reason behind these projects is a desire to love our homes. In fact, 73% of those surveyed reported that they’ve invested in a home improvement project since the pandemic began. The homeowners said they’re currently focused on renovation projects “that provide emotional fulfillment, not just a return on investment”. Fifty one percent said they wanted to feel joyful in their home and 29% said their motivation was to be “happy with a space for years to come”. Here at Cabinets Plus, we’ve felt this first hand. We have never been busier and we love assisting our customers while designing their dream kitchen or bath. The pandemic has increased our business exponentially (thank you) and we have met the challenges with a continued commitment to our clients: to give them the joy inspiring kitchen or bath they have been looking forward to. Right now, people are waiting longer for the finished product, but they keep telling us their joy-inspired project was really worth the wait! It’s our goal to make you happy from the moment you walk through our showroom door until the moment we leave your home for you to enjoy. In fact, during your project you’re given a “Make Me Happy” sheet so when comments or concerns do arise, you have a place to jot them down for us.

Avoid these common mistakes when planning a remodel.

Bidets are widely used around the world and are finally finding appreciation in the United States. There are some compelling reasons to add a bidet. First, comfort is key. Cleaning with a bidet is gentler than dry paper. Those with sensitive skin, medical conditions, or limited mobility will definitely appreciate a thorough but kinder type of clean. Secondly, cleaning with a spray of water is more effectively hygienic. Water gives a better clean and it's hands-free. Additionally, bidets are environmentally friendly. Toilet paper is resource intensive with a great deal of wood and water used to produce what is literally just flushed down the toilet.
