Coastal Blue Bathroom Remodel with Dual Vanity — Houston, TX

This remodel reworks a single bathroom into three distinct zones: a tub/shower combo wrapped in cool blue-gray tile, a double-sink vanity set against a bold cobalt accent wall, and a private water closet tucked behind its own door. The tub and vanity share the same room, while the toilet gets its own enclosed space with a frosted window, giving the layout a hotel-suite feel rather than one open box. A tall white linen cabinet with crown molding fills the transition point between the vanity and the water closet, echoing the vanity’s cabinetry style.

The tub/shower surround is the clearest coastal touch in the space: glossy, staggered subway tile in shifting shades of blue and gray climbs floor to ceiling, broken by a horizontal band of navy and pale glass mosaic tile that wraps the whole enclosure. That same mosaic frames a recessed square niche built into the tile for shampoo and soap, keeping the shower shelf-free. A built-in white soaking tub sits below, paired with a wall-mounted brushed nickel shower caddy and a tiled corner shower with a second showerhead just around the bend.

At the vanity, white shaker-style cabinets with dark oil-rubbed bronze bar pulls and square knobs support a white-and-gray marbled quartz-look countertop long enough for two undermount rectangular sinks. Each sink gets its own brushed nickel gooseneck faucet, and a single wide LED-backlit mirror with built-in touch dimmer controls spans almost the entire counter, throwing even light across both sides. Small gold-framed bathtub illustrations and a canvas painting of a sea turtle swimming through seagrass reinforce the coastal theme against the saturated blue wall color.

Underfoot, warm bamboo-style plank flooring runs through the vanity area and water closet, softened by a blue-and-cream braided rug at the sinks. Brushed nickel hardware carries through consistently — grab bar, faucets, shower fixtures, and towel ring all match — while the shower curtain’s woven mosaic-pattern trim in the main bath and a lighter floral curtain in the water closet tie the two spaces together without being identical. A small potted plant on the water closet windowsill and the framed art throughout give the finished space a lived-in, personal feel rather than a showroom look.
