Black & White BathroomMake your home work for you!
Room Service host Sarah Richardson renovates a Victorian home's rundown second-floor kitchen into a luxurious master bath. Sarah looks to a vintage hotel for inspiration to give this space a classic touch.
Sarah visits a lumberyard that makes custom baseboards, moldings and door casings to see how wood trim can be exclusively designed to match any pattern. Then, Sarah meets with plumbing expert Jim Addison for tips on getting a good deal on a vintage claw-foot tub. Later, Sarah demonstrates how to make a one-of-a-kind wastebasket using leftover wood trim.
The black-and-white scheme, chosen by the client, makes a bold study in contrast augmented by black-and-white mosaic floor tiles. The sparkle of glass, special antique finds, gleaming marble and deco-styled chrome fixtures add polish to this sleek and dramatic new bathroom.
