My Future Master Bath
It's Monday, so it must be time for a house update. I am posting the updates whenever I have something to share....and it happens to be Monday...I'm not committing to a schedule.
I spent the weekend obsessing over sconces. I will be having four sconces flanking the two mirrors in my future master bath.
I know two of the images only have 3 sconces...it's late and I'm tired. I've been looking for a prom dress in-between all of this.
I find the entire subject of a master bath, an interesting one. It is a place for luxury, for sure, but who will actually see it? Other than us? Reminding myself of this, while I shop, helps me keep things in perspective. There will definitely be some splurges in here, but also some cost saving items, too.
Case in point....reasonably priced sconces.
Eight weeks until move in.....ready or not!

House Update
My
looks like a bomb hit it. Construction is moving along, and important decisions are being made somewhat on the fly. Let me walk you through it.
When you first walked in the door, you were looking at a wall that was the kitchen (behind it) on the left, and living room on the right.
One structural engineer consultation, and the wall was removed. So much better.
Scaffolding to reroute a/c and electrical.
This is were the important decisions need to made. My architect recommended that we reframe the ceiling so that there will be symmetry in the new living room (on the left). That would require the ceiling near the front door (skylight) to be lowered to an eight foot height, and made flat. I love the feeling of vaulted ceilings when I enter the front door.
The temporary sink is approximately the center of my new kitchen. As you can see, the highest point in the existing ceiling won't be centered.....do I care? Will it bother me? Do I really want to lower it?
Like most design decisions, I turned to the internet for inspiration. All I needed were a few great images with off-centered ceilings to confirm keeping it this way. You cannot believe how difficult it was to find rooms....of any kind.....as in.....impossible. And then, I realized I was spelling asymmetrical wrong. Two 'M's' in symmetrical? Since when?

I think I'm going to keep the taller ceiling and live with the asymmetry. What would you do?
