Sophisticated Bath Design Combines Modern and Transitional Elements

The walls are painted in a soft gray color, complemented by plantation shutters on the windows and a contemporary pendant light.
Serene spa elements and urban sophistication combine to create a private sanctuary.

As part of a family business specializing in kitchen and bath renovations in south New Jersey for over 55 years, Sophia Amiano has unique insights into what it takes to make a project stand out. “Our business has been built on a dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and client satisfaction. We aim to create spaces that blend style, functionality, and our clients’ unique vision,” explained Sophia. She shared details of a recently completed project that illustrates this commitment and showcases how her attention to detail elevates projects to new heights.

The built-in bench and matte mosaic tile pattern on the shower floor are both elegant and functional.

The transformation of the space began with a strategic layout reconfiguration—knocking down a closet to create a spacious, luxurious shower area. The shower became the focal point, with large-format tiles adding depth and a spa-like ambiance. Its grand scale allowed for multiple fixtures, including a rain head and handheld shower, providing a fully immersive experience.

In keeping with the client’s desire to have a sophisticated, spa-like space, Sophia selected elegant Larkin pulls in Matte Black from Jeffrey Alexander. “These pulls bring a bold yet refined touch to the space, their clean lines and subtle detailing perfectly complement the serene, spa-inspired ambiance of the bathroom,” said Sophia. “The hardware strikes the ideal balance of modern edge and timeless sophistication, completing the design with understated elegance.”
