当设计师杰西DeSanti Jette创造性的冷杉t met the owners of this Spanish bungalow in Long Beach, California, a couple with two adult children, their plan seemed straightforward. They wanted to turn an oversizebathroominto two distinct, well-organized spaces. So Jesse drew up plans. Then the couple decided that actually, maybe the work should focus on helping to eventuallysell the house. So Jesse created another set of ideas. “And then I had a baby,” the designer says. “The clients are super sweet and they never want to push anything, so they kind of backed off and I kind of backed off.”
The story probably would’ve ended here if not for these particular clients. Soon after Jesse had her son, the owners chose once and for all not to move and reached out to her again. Jesse made it her mission to see the project through.
Part 1: The Bathrooms
The exterior of the house had been painted white to accentuate a red-tiled roof and archways, but the interior was cramped and dark. It didn’t seem to reflect the warmth of its inhabitants. “I remember saying something like, ‘This doesn’t look anything like your charming, charming exterior,'” Jesse says. To reverse that, the interiors were painted white to match, and then construction began on building the two bathrooms.
