Master Bathroom
Architect: Bing Hu, Builder: Platinum Homes
This Desert Mountain abode features a master bathroom that could be mistaken for one at a high-end spa, thanks to a jaw-dropping tub that was carved from one piece of black granite. (The massive piece had to be brought into the area before the house was even framed.) To complete the Zen space, the bathroom features skylights to create a gorgeous glow and stacked black pebble shower walls.

WORD TO THE WISE:
“Limit the number of different materials and surfaces used in one space to avoid a cluttered feeling. Staying with no more than three major materials total (for flooring, walls, cabinets, etc.) will keep the space clean and appealing.”
