Design Inspiration: “Magic Moments”
During one of the Pre-Design meetings with our Cat Hill client she mentioned wanting a home that is “simple and comfortable, but stylish with some dramatic ‘wows’.”
Our primary goal for the design of our Cat Hill project is to create a house our client will be proud to live in with a few of these special “magic moments” that make it home. One of these ‘wows’ is a beautiful freestanding tub set within a “nook” in the bathroom with floor to ceiling glass overlooking the ridge and view to the Catskill Mountains. Definitely sounds magical to me!
For design inspiration, we’ve been referring to the previous post below for “wow” modern bathroom designs:
Residential Design Inspiration: Modern Master Bathrooms

I believe there are two types of bathroom (design) people. There are those who think the most efficient use of space is best for a bathroom, no matter which bathroom it is. Then there are those who would love to spend hours in the bath, relaxing and enjoying, and therefore would like it to be one of the more special spaces in the house – large and luxurious. The funny part is I think we have each of those people as our client…on most projects!
The images we’ve chosen to include below are not only the luxurious and overly spacious (we just couldn’t help ourselves), but we’ve also selected Modern Master Bathroom designs that are well laid out AND elegantly designed. Our goal is to design for both: open and luxurious yet smart and efficient. Open space in the bathroom is nice! If we design the “efficient” spaces to be more efficient, then we have a little more area for “luxurious” in the open spaces… (From a previous post dated July 16, 2015)
