CONTRAILS: A Palette for Bathroom or Kitchen

This is for the people I meet who say, "I don't know what I want, just tell me what I should do." Okay! Here is my answer.

I call this "Contrails" because of the stormy mix of neutral colors and linear patterns. Pair this with a concrete-like counter top and a paint color that ties it all together.

The materials shown are:

• Floor Tile--Dal Tile's Fabrique line in color gris linen,


• Wall Tile for shower or backsplash--Hirsch Glass sm0024,


• Wall or Cabinet Color--Sherwin Williams, Serious Grey


• Counter top--Formica Laminate, Earth Wash
  

Favorite Tile...

Happy Floors: Pastorelli Overland in Dark Moss.

Enough said.

'Vanilla' Shower and Whirpool Idea

I imagine a glass enclosed shower and whirlpool tub side by side.
