Project: Full Master Bathroom Renovation, Riner, Virginia

Project Goals:

Replace the old garden-style bathtub with a modern, freestanding centerpiece.
Maximize daylight and views by positioning the new tub in front of a large picture window.
Introduce a vibrant blue and teal tile scheme in partnership with DeHart Tile in Christiansburg.
Brighten the shower space with a see-through opening at the top to invite natural light.
Add finishing touches—a blue vanity and a lighted mirror—to complete the design.

Project Overview

This bathroom began as a dated, uninspiring space featuring an old-style garden tub that felt bulky and didn’t optimize the available light or view. The homeowners in Riner desired a fresh, luminous design that would not only be functional, but also beautifully integrated with the architecture and surrounding landscape.

Working with DeHart Tile in Christiansburg, we helped select a blue and teal tile palette that balances elegance with tranquility, delivering a spa-like atmosphere with a distinctive pop of color. A dramatic freestanding tub was then fitted as the room’s focal point, placed directly in front of a large picture window to flood the room with natural light and provide a serene bathing experience.

To further enhance the sense of openness in the shower, we incorporated a see-through opening at the top of the stall—an architectural detail that invites daylight deep into the space while maintaining privacy. Finally, a bold blue vanity and sleek lighted mirror tie all the design elements together, creating a harmonious, polished finish.

Scope of Work

Our team followed a phased approach to transform this bathroom into a light-filled sanctuary:

Demolition & Prep
Removed the old garden tub and cleared outdated materials to open the space for renovation.
Tub Installation & Placement
Installed a custom freestanding bathtub perfectly aligned with the picture window for maximum impact.
Tile Work
Coordinated with DeHart Tile in Christiansburg to install blue and teal tiles throughout—on walls, floors, or as accent features depending on the design plan.
Shower Enhancements
Added a see-through upper opening in the shower stall to allow daylight to penetrate, enhancing the overall brightness and appeal of the space.
Fixtures & Finishing Touches
Fitted a deep blue vanity and a modern lighted mirror to complement the tile scheme and bring additional functionality and style.

Design Highlights

Light-First Layout: Replacing the garden tub with a freestanding model in front of the window makes the most of natural lighting and scenic views.
Striking Color Palette: The blue and teal tiles, provided through our collaboration with DeHart Tile in Christiansburg, bring both elegance and a serene vibe to the bathroom.
Clever Daylight Strategy: The see-through shower opening is a smart design detail that brightens the shower and contributes to a breezy, open feel.
Cohesive Styling: The coordinated blue vanity and lighted mirror anchor the color scheme and create a tailored, polished look.
