Hall Bathroom
We embraced the retro 1960s tile to update, rather than renovate, this kids/guest bathroom. Colorful patterns, art and cabana striped walls helped infuse this space with personality.

Design Notes
-
Functional Needs
-Primarily a kid’s bathroom, but also needed to be available to guests
-
Challenges
-No budget to renovate
-Blue floor tile, wall tile, and countertop tile made the bathroom feel rather cold and one note
-
Solutions
-Colorful cabana stripes were painted on the walls to add a bit of vibrancy to the space and to draw the eye up (and away from all that blue tile!)
-A large, washable cotton rug helped to warm up the space.

Favorite Design Elements
-Gallery wall including several favorite Austin swimming spots by local artist Eleanor Baker
