Teen Bathroom – Glen Ellyn, IL

Designer: Diana Burton

The Setup

A leak in the shower floor was the catalyst for remodeling the teenager’s bathroom. The aim was to transform it into a more open, inviting space, with a design that resonates with a young man’s tastes.

Design objectives:

  • Revitalize the space with a contemporary update
  • Tailor the aesthetic to suit a teenage boy
  • Employ organic and natural materials for a grounded feel

The ReMODEL

Design challenges:

  • Create an open, light-filled shower to enhance the spatial experience
  • Select a color scheme and materials that blend masculine energy with a calming, spa-like atmosphere

Design solutions:

  • Removed the enclosing wall to open up the shower area
  • Chose a neutral color palette with organic, textural tiles. Added a stylish decorative mirror and sconces for a cohesive and appealing look

THE REnewed Space

The bathroom has been transformed into a sleek and modern retreat, perfectly suited for a teenage boy. It’s not just a remodel; it’s a reimagining that combines style and functionality, ensuring a design that will remain appealing for years to come.
