For an Old Westbury master bath, Mojo Stumer Associates created a spa-like, indoor-outdoor oasis by integrating slatted mahogany screens that both provide privacy and filter light from an adjacent terrace.
Fittingly enough, a freestanding glass tub—its filler is concealed in the ceiling—sits on a bed of river stones. “The relationship to nature gives the room a very peaceful vibe,” says judge Lori Weitzner. “It’s a great bathroom to ‘Zen out’ in,” concurs judge Analisse Taft-Gersten.
To add contrast to a highly decorative Upper East Side master bedroom, the firm designed a decidedly pared-down master bath, installing a floating Blue de Savoie marble vanity and cladding the walls and shower in Bianco Neve marble tiles. “Very simple, but chic,” remarks Taft-Gersten. “It’s seamless, meditative, and beautiful,” adds Weitzner.
The clients’ love of all things Parisian inspired this Upper East Side bathroom’s black-and-white scheme. Its petite size didn’t stop Virginia Toledo and Jessica Geller from going all out with a graphic mosaic floor, Nero Marquina marble crown moldings, and a custom vanity with oversize half-moon pulls. Judge Harry Heissmann describes it as “modern, but with Art Deco references. It’s very New York.”
