A blue-gray shower for the guest
Published
A renovated ranch house, conceived for Albuquerque, NM.
A hand shower helps with washing the enclosure as well as using it. This guest bathroom gives that everyday fitting a clear blue-gray end, with a navy drawer unit keeping the approach free of supplies.
See the product sourcesTHE DESIGN
Blue-gray marks the shower without turning it into a separate decorative theme. Sand-colored surfaces hold the rest of the room together, and the navy cabinet gives the basin a deeper base. The change in tone does the organizing.
The wide Noir mirror keeps the working wall straightforward. Nickel fittings remain quiet against the wet-area tile, with a hand shower that is useful for cleaning as well as bathing. Storage is closed, leaving space for the guest’s own small collection of necessities.
WHY THE ROOM WORKS
Sand and blue-gray organize a generous shower-led bathroom without a decorative theme.

Glam 48-inch blue floating vanity
All Sum Home
The blue cabinet puts the room’s deeper tone where it is useful. A floating base leaves the sand-colored floor in view, while closed storage means a guest does not have to find space among someone else’s bottles.
US$2,199.99
Noir 48 x 32 black bathroom mirror
All Sum Home
The wide Noir mirror follows the basin wall rather than adding another shape to the room. Its fine dark edge separates reflected light from the matte tile without making the small bathroom feel framed in.
US$269.99
Exbrite 4PC3 brushed nickel body-spray shower system
All Sum Home
Brushed nickel keeps the blue-gray shower quiet. A hand shower adds useful flexibility for rinsing and cleaning, while the matching round fittings make the wet end feel considered as a whole.
