Bernard Bath

Chicago, Illinois | Bathroom Refresh

Bernard Bath transformed an outdated bathroom into a richly layered space through dramatic botanical wallpaper, warm brass accents, and thoughtful styling. Designed as an interim update before a future renovation, the refresh proves that impactful design doesn’t always require a complete gut remodel.
