Around the House: Master Bath

Happy Monday! Today I wanted to share a little design compromise with you guys. My hubs is simplistic. We're talkin' grey, navy, brown t-shirts, with cargo shorts and pumas kind of simplistic. His wardrobe matches his design philosophy - clean lines and neutral colors. The more stark and modern, the better. This, as you know, is so not me. I love industrial, eclectic, modern, vintage and everything in between - all rolled into one. With a bit of color injected via accessories. So how do two vastly different design aesthetics marry harmoniously? Very carefully and with a lot of give and take. We're getting there... I think.

He loves the clean lines of the stacked white tile above. I love the knobs, hooks (from Hobby Lobby, kid you not) and lighting (West Elm) seen above. He picked out the faucet and we agreed on the Hemnes vanity from Ikea. (Which may or may not work with the sink we want...sigh of frustration inserted here.) Then I'll be adding estate sale finds and other eclectic bits and bobs...

Like marriage, design is give and take in order to make both parties happy. Then the lady comes in and adds a bit of inexpensive flare that the hubs gracefully accepts, knowing she craves a bit o' spice. Ahhh...happily. ever. after. xo
