Two Baths From One

Mid-remodel, Genie Nowicki's clients had a request. They wanted an additional bathroom, but they didn't want to add space to their home or take any away from the living areas. Fortunately, one of the existing bathrooms was well-endowed. If the homeowners wanted another bathroom, Genie would have to divide this large space in two. It worked, but it wasn't easy. In this article, Genie explains how she got two sunlit bathrooms from one. Her tricks include using shallow cabinetry, semirecessed sinks, a tubular skylight, and recessed medicine cabinets. She also explains the theory behind her thoughtful use of tile, fixtures, and hardware.
