I sell real estate and I’ve gone into hundreds of homes some of them with black marble. The black marble is truly a nightmare. It shows hard water stains, rings from water glasses, soap scum and it never looks clean. On the other hand classic white marble always looks good. It can be 40 years old and still it looks good. I think the dark chestnut color stain would look classic and beautiful. ❤

I personally think the cabinet for the sink should stay natural, there is already a lot of high contrast in the room, it reflects the light and adds just enough warmth to the space to be cosy without being the focal point. It also creates a beautiful juxtaposition between the rooms connected that I don’t think would be achievable any darker. Love how it’s all coming along and know it’s going to be stunning! 😍

Let me preface by saying I used to design kitchens and bathrooms and that most things are simply a matter of preference. 1) Cooler and warmer tones CAN work together. Bringing in the slightly warmer wall paint color actually works here, giving it a "lived in" feel and works well with the color of the adjoining rooms. A starker white would make it feel more modern (which is fine, if that's what's desired). 2) For the tub, if you're doing anything other than white (black, copper, platinum), it's because you want the tub to be the focus of the space. Painting the vanity black to match (although it would work) would defeat that purpose. 3) For the vanity, a stain/wash that would match the floors in the adjoining rooms would add some continuity between the spaces with a natural wood element. 4) For the countertop, I'd pick a white marble with bold grey veining (similar to the floor). For fun, I would play with the ledge next to the tub - white or black marble or even the same wood as the vanity would work! Ana, I know whatever you decide it will look fantastic!😍😘☺

On the video, the walls looks very yellow, like there is a yellow (warm undertone), whereas the floor is cool. It might just be the camera, but I think the walls are messing with your color choices for the vanity. I would paint it to match the walls so it blends in. Maybe the question is what do you want to pop? The bathtub or the vanity? Too many "look at ME's" in one tiny room can be overwhelming to the eye. The floor is busy, and it is a statement. The tub compliments the floor. The walls and the vanity have to play supporting roles. I would paint the vanity in the same shade as the walls, so it blends in...then your fixtures will totally pop! (and not fight with the floor)

I totally would have played it safe and brought one of the wall colors from the other rooms into the bathroom and then went with all white for the tub and sink base /top so they match and don't clash with the floor or the walls. The tiles in the shower are so gorgeous, but their cool tones seem to clash a bit with the current wall color. I know you guys will sort it out and it will be stunning when you're all done, because that's what always happens.

Black granite is less porous than the Carrera marble but it shows everything.Even after being sealed. Waterdrops, etching, rings. Carrera stains but is more forgiving because of the patterning. In the US and probably Europe, there are lifetime sealers for slabs. I would select taller lights for the vanity. You could stain the vanities gray which would go with everything you have chosen thus far. Even if you have to water down paint to make your own color wash. Then a clear topcoat with a satin finish. Hope that helps. Designer, CA, USA

Paint not stain the cabinet Black then use the Carrera Marble top and it will look stunning. You might even want to try a sample board of a black laquer finish on the cabinet for contrast from all the softer finishes...You could also finish off the area around the shower with a thin Black marble twisted rope piece that you will have to experiment with to see what width to use then fonish the area with the White Carerra marble. When you do these things it will finish it off better and look more custom and historically they often played with this type of thing with tile and marble.

Given that you have cream/off white walls, black and white floor, grey tiles and grey and white bath, I would consider arabescato marble, one that incorporates all the different colours that are in your room (with a predominent light background) and have that one marble on the bath ledge, vanity top and shower base. Choose the marble first and then the vanity cabinet can blend to the marble allowing a more natural wood tone. Yes the marble is expensive but it will blend old chateau to your more contempory style - while it will add a further pattern to the mix your room is large enough to handle it.

@@sabalight2558 I agree an especially light stain would look too rustic for the look I believe they are trying to create, but a medium tone like Anna initially referenced would still have a formality to it. Especially bearing in mind the overall style of the cabinet - as you said. I’m eager to see which hardware they will select, as that could significantly impact the feel as well.

Don’t stain that beautiful wood ,just a clear varnish, it would be a sin. If you had wanted a dark wood ,why have in made in beautiful oak 🤗

Don’t do the dark marble. Every drip and drop of water will leave a mark. Keep you bathroom classic, light and airy. I would like the tub all white. White marble counter tops. Paint (not stain) the vanity white. The white with the creamy walls will be dreamy

Hello, thank you so much for sharing your amazing journey. I really like your take on keeping the traditional feel of a chateau with a modern twist. Always with good taste. 😊 On the subject of the vanity, maybe I'm wrong, but it looks like oak. If it is, the more traditional and perhaps soft look would be to leave the color natural and take a white/ soft grey mat marble countertop (just like it would have been on an old "vanity table"). I agree with Philip that right now it looks kind of modern cheap but hear me out: the oak will age and darker with natural light ( as long as you don't put anti uv finish on it), and that will look the most original to the place in 2 or 3 years. However there is a high chance the woodstain will look a bit meh in those 2/3 years... Hope this is a little helpful.

I would stain it light grey, and have a countertop of the white marble. So that the only black in the room will be the flooring and the bathtub to stand out. And not mix so much with big pieces of furniture in black. Just the tub as an decorative piece. if that makes sense.

I hate to say it but I think I would absolutely paint the cabinet to match the walls. And white marble. I probably would have gone with a paint color on the walls that was a bit more complimentary to the white marble. And then a black tub would work. You have a lot going on in a smaller space there. It’s all lovely. If I was feeling extra French Queen, I would do all of that and paint the tub exterior gold.

I agree, walls are too warm. If you stain the cabinet dark you need a white top like the tub. Dark counter tops are not popular from the few people I know that have had them. Right now I feel there are two clashing points of interest, the tub and the cabinet. I guess you need to equal ice them or one should blend in and the other stand out. Does that make sense 🤔Make the cabinet warm to go with walls with white top that way floor and tub are focal point 🤷🏼‍♀️I am rambling, what do I know.

The wall colour, while it is a great one, it kinda doesnt feel quite right...unless perhaps it somehow transfers to the blinds on the windows combined with some black details. Also the lights on the mirror...yeap, not the ones. Perhaps smt not so industrial (not so modern) but still clear glass...hmmm perhaps if they had a small black base and then just the glass, they could also transfer juuuuust a tiny bit of the black tiles upwards connecting everything...

I noticed during an earlier vid the space over the bathroom door. I thought you probably planned to do it but I hadn't heard you mention it. I thought that space would be cool with a glass transom over the toilet closet door. If nothing else, allow some natural light, which would have helped while installing the light.
@CarolBushbergRealEstateIthaca

Totally agree, would also make the experience of being in the lav less claustrophobic and a lit light fixture, antique and perfectly framed in the transom (not the current fixture) will announce that the room is in use.

Now for the kitchen...(listen for the sounds of my teeth grinding and my nails being eaten in my sleep!)

The bathtub colour looks good on my monitor... in relation to the other colours. Good luck figuring it out. You do need to distance yourself a bit to think it through but then, in the end, not compromise. It'll bug you forever. - One thing... all the tile choices seem to have a slightly cool undertone but the wall paint seems to be creamy with a warm undertone. Hmmm.

Phillipp, I am enjoying every video. I am especially happy for the different color choices and schemes. Not only is it bringing a classy and elegant feel to the chateau but makes for great content! The kitchen turned out to be a master piece. Now the bathroom is becoming its own. The tub color brings out the smokey black / grey in the shower and floor tiles. Green on green on green in almost every room became boring to watch. What helped was anticipating your humor. Wow, Anna has matured emotionally. Good for her to admit she was wrong.

The cabinet would look good dark stain. For your light fixtures by the mirror look for something like a lamp shade on it. Use all the white marble on cabinet and all trim. The paint on the walls need to be an off white color. The beige walls affect the tub color and floor color. The walls look to beige.
