Cabinetry by Steven Lesser

Description:  This bathroom was the client's guest bathroom at the basement level.  Because of the concrete foundation, this bathroom was cold during the winter.  The client requested a heated floor element.  To be environmentally conscious, the client re-used her vanity by painting it dark brown to coordinate with other elements in the room.  A medium taupe-red tile was used in the shower with a taupe listello.  A darker taupe-brown tile was used on the floor.  The tile was grouted with an epoxy grout which repels stains and mildew.  A storage cabinet replaces a wire shelving system which allows for clutter-free storage.

 

Installation:

• Electric radiant floor heating installation
• 12 inch floor tile, 4 inch wall tile
• Copper Vessel sink and faucet
• Dry Rot framing repair in shower
• Frameless shower door

 

 

 

 

 

Environmentally conscious design choices were pre-requisites by the client.  Most of the appliances were purchased from an appliance recycler and are Energy Star rated.  The countertops are a recycled product called Squak Mountain Stone. The Ikea cabinets are a eucalyptus veneer which mimics the look of mahogany, and can be grown sustainably. Some flourishes include jewel toned slate tile, and recycled glass tile accents.

Project:  Superficial Bathroom Remodel

 

Big style came with a small price tag while updating this tiny guest bathroom.  The walls were painted a light gray-blue color.  The particle board vanity was replaced with an oak vanity and a niche was added to utilize wasted space adjacent to the toilet.  A polished marble tile countertop and tumbled stone backsplash add a mix of old world and contemporary to keep this bathroom up-to-date for many years to come.

Project:  Utility Room Conversion

 

Description:   This 22 x 11 ft room was large enough to convert a storage room into an office and utility closet housing the hot water-heater, washer, and dryer.  The three by-pass doors allow easy access to all three utilities.  On the opposite side of the room louvered doors have been replaced with modern flat profile door.  The doors and window have been trimmed out with molding.  The ceiling was drywalled and the some the plumbing was boxed in.  The laminate floor completes the room by covering a cold concrete floor.
