Kim’s Sophisticated Bathroom Design Board
My ideal bathroom is an oasis of serene sophistication anchored by a showpiece double vanity in glossy black. The quiet gray walls, a bold aloe triptych and timeless jute baskets lend a calming natural touch to the urban cool of the black and white palette. The lattice theme of the natural stone flooring by Fifth and Fir is echoed by a cubist-inspired aged iron chandelier centered over the luxurious lines of the deep white soaker tub. – Click here for more information and sources.
Karla’s Dramatic Bathroom Design Board
This bathroom is fresh and textural with hints of playfulness. You can recreate this look by choosing a graphic, bold tile and highlighting it in one area (like the floor or wall) then choosing softer textural elements such as wood and light colored stone. Remember that lighting really is the jewelry of the space and a hint of black sprinkled in always grounds the room. – Click here for more information and sources.

Karla Dreyer has my vote. I prefer a light filled bath, versus a dark one. Also, the tub is more to my liking in that it would be comfy to relax in during a leisurely bath. I like the tile and sconce. I would pick a white vanity though. The natural wood is a bit rustic for my taste.

In the dining room lighting video, I really liked finding out how to by a chandelier that fits the size of your dining room.
as nice and convenient as the Lutron smart home appliances seem, I dislike all the fine print that comes with most of these devices, where the companies have access to your data use and can sell or trade that information as they see fit. Reminds me of the amazon echo fiasco.
