When Tatyana Gartner, founder and principal of locally based Tatyana Design, was tasked with conceiving 20 apartments in Brooklyn, N.Y.’s Williamsburg neighborhood, she imbued the 28 bathrooms with a minimalist aesthetic rooted in sleek lines and industrial cool.
The bathrooms feature a modern and clean aesthetic that mingles geometry and texture. “The area used to be industrial, and they wanted to keep that feel, despite it being a new development,” said Gartner, who paired concrete sinks with walnut vanities.
To maximize the layout of each bathroom, Gartner installed frameless, glass-enclosed showers and in-set mirrors.
In some bathrooms, a mosaic band runs nearly uninterrupted around the room’s perimeter and “became…a visually pleasing focal point,” said Gartner.
Mosaic tile also appears as an accent within niche shelving that was carved out from unused wall cavities. These recessed ledges provide extra storage and minimize clutter.
Dark gray mosaic tilework, along with chrome faucets and fittings, creates a visually modern contrast.
