This Cumming house may be new, but designer Lisa Gabrielson gave it a “granny chic” look, notably in this primary suite bathroom. “We went for a restful approach, with muted colors and materials like you’d find in an old farmhouse,” she says.
Gray area
The two vanities are custom, with a furniture-like look, and wear muted gray colors. Feminine-styled mirrors are from Gabby.
Dramatic entrance
The antique Belgian doors—installed as sliding doors—were purchased at Scott Antique Markets. “They add a sense of soul to the room and help create that history we were trying to achieve,” says the designer.
High expectations
Ten-foot-high ceilings and a spacious room size create a luxury bath for homeowner Kristen Colby. The tub from Signature Hardware is strategically placed against a stone wall.
Underfoot
Oak floors with a light wood stain continue the mix of muted tones in the room.
Design Tip: Don’t overdo architectural details. With the room’s many focal points, Gabrielson added shiplap to an accent wall for texture—but didn’t use it for the whole room.
