The vanity’s curved edges were part of the delicate balance. “I carefully think about balance in every design—shapes, temperature, and color,” Day says. “Here, there was a balance between straight lines and curves, a balance between cool terrazzo and warm wood and a balance between smooth concrete floor tiles and shiny glass wall tiles.”
Floor sconces also add rounded shapes to this wall, playing off the strong straight grid of glass tiles behind them. Instead of using mirrored medicine cabinets, Dai designed oak shelves for storage. “This comes down to balance,” she says. “The wood adds warmth to balance the coolness of the glass tiles.”
Balance also allows certain elements to play leadership roles while others support players. Here, the terrazzo countertop and patterned floor are the stars. “I chose matte white faucets because I thought the metallic finish would be a distraction,” Day says. “It’s quiet and adds a very nice touch of modern design.”
