A Minimalist

Artisan Bathroom

Chapel Hill, NC

What we started with

Transform a primary color children’s bath into a modernized and organic bath, repurposing as much as possible to lower the cost.

The Design Approach

Natural elements added to a minimalist black/white theme brings simplicity and comfort

  1. Incorporate the craftsmanship of North Carolina artisans for authenticity and warmth

  2. Play on natural tones with black/white contrast, and metal edging to create a sleek and organic feel

  3. Repurpose dated maple cabinets and the large mirror to reduce cost

The Results

A  modern and distinctive bath of North Carolina Art

  • Natural and handmade elements bring warmth to a modern and sleek design

  • Bring in local artisan designs: Custom Walnut counter from Steve Peters Design, Durham, NC and Stoneware sink from Michael Mahan, Potter, Seagrove, NC

The Mazarine Design Difference

Space optimization, Fit for function, Simplicity


  • Added a thick custom reclaimed walnut wood countertop to elevate the previous kid-friendly height 

  • Added a custom stoneware sink to bring style and a color note in this monochrome design

  • Repurpose cabinet by flipping and painting doors and changing hardware

  • Repurpose the large mirror, moved off the wall with background LED lighting to serve as night light and give atmosphere

  • Installed long rectangular tiles lengthwise to elongate and expand the space on floors and walls
