Ericsson Kitchen and Bath
Scandinavian Bathroom, Minneapolis
This 1907 home in Ericsson neighborhood of South Minneapolis was in need of some love. A tiny nearly unfunctional kitchen and leaking bathroom were ready for updates.. The homeowners wanted to embrace their heritage and also have a simple and sustainable space for their family to grow in. The new spaces meld the homes traditional elements with Traditional Scandinavian design influences.
In the kitchen, a wall was opened to the dining room for natural light to carry between rooms and create the appearance of space. Traditional Shaker style/flush inset custom white cabinetry with paneled front appliances were designed for a clean aesthetic. Custom recycled glass countertops, white subway tile, Kohler sink and faucet, beadboard ceilings, and refinished existing hardwood floors complete the kitchen with all new electrical and plumbing.
In the bathroom, we were limited by space! After discussing the homeowners use of space, the decision was made to eliminate the existing tub for a new walk-in shower. By installing a curb-less shower drain, floating sink and shelving, and wall hung toilet; we were able to maximize floor space! White cabinetry, Kohler fixtures, and custom recycled glass countertops were carried upstairs to connect to the main floor remodel. White and black porcelain hex floors, marble accents, and oversized white tile on the walls complete the space for a clean and minimal look without losing its traditional roots! We love the black accents in the space including black edge on the shower niche and pops of black hex on the floors.
