These two hand carved stones are they handles which operate the shower on/ off pulley mechanism. The shower is carefully hidden in the canopy above. When you first use the shower it is unclear exactly what the stones do. You find out quickly...

Exterior shot- As you can see: from the outside you cant see past the ventilation and privacy panels due to the angle they are cut at. Simple, single bolts are one of the few man-made materials used on this project. Others include: plumbing and rope. We tried to keep this list to an absolute minimum to echo the structures surroundings.

This piece of Granite was found only a few metres from the site. It was the hand sculpted by Rohan Bigham. The following information was provided by Geologist Cheikh L Wali: " The rock consists of a granitic-gneiss formed of white-grey felsic minerals such as quartz and feldspars, which alternate in a discontinuous foliated texture with dark minerals, mainly biotite and pyroxenes. It corresponds to a metamorphic rock derived from the transformation of an igneous granitic rock under high temperature and pressure, which results in this hard rock, generally resistant to dissolution in water. Such type of rock is commonly found in the cores of mountain ranges and in Precambrian (more than 540 million years) crystalline terranes."

We turned this 1954 Hermosa beachfront home's master bathroom into a modern nautical bathroom. The bathroom is a perfect square and measures 7" 6'. The master bathroom had a red/black shower, the toilet took up half of the space, and there was no vanity. We relocated the shower closer to the window and added more space for the shower enclosure with a low-bearing wall, and two custom shower niches. The toilet is now located closer to the entryway with the new shower ventilation system and recessed lights above. The beautiful shaker vanity has a luminous white marble countertop and a blue glass sink bowl. The large built-in LED mirror sits above the vanity along with a set of four glass wall mount vanity lights. We kept the beautiful wood ceiling and revived its beautiful dark brown finish.
