The primary suite has been one of the non-essential finished spaces for us, but happy to report that it's officially done!Neither Paul or I felt like we needed a soaking tub which provided extra room for the shower. We are so pleased with how everything turned out. I was originally looking at simple, classic tile. As the build process went on I decided it was time to change it up!All of our cabinetry is the same, the countertops are the same, fixtures, etc. so the primary suite needed a WOW factor to differentiate it from the rest of the house. I knew I wanted to keep the matte black fixtures and go bold with my tile.
