Master Bathroom & Closet
San Francisco
A coordinated master suite renovation pairing a skylit double-vanity bathroom with an adjoining walk-in closet. Fluted white oak millwork, smoked glass cabinet fronts, brushed brass hardware, and a continuous charcoal stone tile floor that flows from the vanity through to the dressing room.
One continuous suite, two distinct rooms
This San Francisco master suite pairs a fully renovated bathroom with a custom-built walk-in closet that opens directly off it. The brief was to make both rooms feel like a single coordinated space — same flooring, same hardware family, same millwork detailing — so the daily ritual of getting ready never crosses an obvious threshold between zones.
The material story is built around three things: white oak in two different expressions (vertical fluting on the vanity, smooth panels in the closet), brushed brass on every pull and fixture, and smoked grey glass cabinet fronts that give the closet a tailored, gallery-like feel. A continuous charcoal stone tile floor runs through both rooms, and the entire suite catches natural light from a skylight set directly above the vanity wall.

The Vanity & Skylight Wall
A skylit double vanity anchors the bathroom — fluted white oak millwork below, brushed brass fixtures, and oval backlit mirrors set against the wall. The skylight sits directly overhead, so the vanity runs in natural light through the day.
The same charcoal stone tile that runs through the suite continues underfoot, and the vertical fluting on the vanity faces sets up the material language carried into the shower tile and the closet joinery.
Fluted oak, brushed brass, oval backlit mirrors, and a skylight set directly above the vanity. The bathroom and closet were built to read as one continuous suite, not two separate rooms.Bark and Build Builders · CSLB #1119304
The Walk-in Shower
A frameless glass walk-in shower built around a vertical fluted wood-look tile back wall — a quieter take on the same fluting language used on the vanity millwork, carried into a wet-environment material. A recessed black stone niche sits at chest height for a clean visual break against the warm field tile.
The fixture package is fully brushed brass: rain head, dedicated handheld on a slide bar, single-lever thermostatic valve, and matching barn-style door hardware that lets the glass enclosure slide rather than swing. A linear floor drain runs the back length of the pan, and the same charcoal stone tile from the rest of the suite continues across the shower floor without a curb break.
The Walk-in Closet
Custom Oak & Smoked Glass Wardrobe System
A full-height custom wardrobe in white oak, paired with smoked grey glass-fronted display cabinets, internal LED strip lighting on every bay, brushed brass linear pulls, and radiused inside corners where adjoining cabinet runs meet.
A Coordinated Master Suite
The bathroom and closet now read as one continuous suite. The same charcoal stone tile flooring runs through both rooms, the same brushed brass hardware family appears on every pull and fixture, and the same white oak millwork — fluted on the vanity, smooth-panel in the closet — gives both spaces a single material identity without making either feel like a copy of the other.
The skylit double vanity handles the daily routine in natural light, the fluted-tile shower gives the wet zone its own quiet identity, and the smoked-glass closet system turns the dressing room into something closer to a gallery than a storage space. From any angle in the suite, the homeowner is looking at the same project — not two adjacent renovations.
