What do you do? Because if you aren't designing for a living than too many people are missing out on your talents.

I don't do anything having to do with home renovation but thanks.

Im not sure what Im doing wrong b/c this bathroom is really hard to photograph. see how everything looks green? It doesn't look like that in person.

I need to figure out what to put on the walls. Suggestions? This bathroom is on our first floor so we'll very rarely use the bathtub so moisture isn't really an issue.

I was thinking a really bold wall paper .There are some great paper deisngers, it wouldn't take too much and it will have lots of impact to see it from elsewhere when the door is open. An the black and white photos.

Thanks chris - I think wallpaper would look pretty cool in here but Im not willing to commit to anything that bold for the long haul. Not to mention that cutting around all the things in the wall seems way beyond my skill level.

I like that its pretty serene in here, I just think it needs a few accents to add some interest.

it's probably green because you have fluorescent light sources in the bathroom. our eyes can adjust to fluorescent light (which has a lot of green spectrum in it) but the camera can't.

you can try using more flash (which is daylight balanced) or you can just adjust the colors in an image editing software. magenta cancels out green.

Nope, no flourescent lights in here. And when I try to correct the green cast in photoshop, it all looks too blue. So either way, the photos don't show true. Im guessing it has something to do with my lens which is pretty slow (using a wide angle)

Wow. That is stunning, as is the rest of the place. You must be so proud and fulfilled! Nice work!

BTW, I messed with your photo and posted ithere. I hope you don't mind! Not sure if that's even what it looks like "for real" but I had to try to find out! ;] It's absolutely lovely, with or without the greenish cast!

Looks great, we've been going back and forth on material list - this is the bathroom I was making reference to. So, the wall tiles and floor are both marble? Are the wall tiles subway tiles made out of marble. I can't beleive the floor is marble, did it come on a net?

MrsLimestone says:

Yes - all of the tiles are marble. The floor is in a hex shape and it came in a net. The floor tiles are pretty common - Ive seen them a lot. The wall tiles were a bit harder to find but any specialty marble tile company can make them.

I guesstimate that this is a more color correct version?

MrsLimestone says:

Yep - I think the wall and fixture colors are closer to correct in your version. Thanks.

We are currently renovating our 1940's bungalow. I have ordered the same gorgeous sink that you have and but have not yet decided with the toilet tank. I noticed that you did not use the same style toilet as the sink, am I right that the sink is from the Lutezia line from Porcher. any particular reason why the toilet is different??

MrsLimestone says:

Hi MaoBlue - Yes, its a Porcher Lutezia. No real reason we used a different toilet. I didn't feel the need to use the same brand since I was using white on everything anyway. I used Kohler Memoirs toilet and its a great one so Im glad I went with this one. (We have TOTO toilets elsewhere and I HATE THEM!)

Hi, just a thought re colour correction but check your camera settings. If auto colour correction setting is 'on' then it sometimes misrepresents it. You may need to select the 'flash' setting if using flash or 'tungten' which is depicted by a bulb symbol. Hope this makes sense and hope it works. Ignore this if you have already figured out the problem. ; )

MrsLimestone says:

Thanks flutter. I took the photos a while back so I don't remember what settings I had it on at the time. I probably didn't play with the white balance b/c I was quickly snapping shots and didn't see the green cast until later so good suggestion if it happens again.
