The guest house work has been moving rapidly into framing, electrical and plumbing phases. The bathroom framing now defines the spaces, separating the small future kitchen (right) and the built-in bed area (left). Brian finished the rough plumbing for the bathroom. We will have a wall mount faucet from Chicago Faucets and a semi-recessed Lacava sink with a small open vanity. The countertop will be walnut like the kitchen. The bathroom is only 5x8, so the details matter. I've selected a 4x8 white subway tile, and I am leaning towards a black grout. The lighting plan is fairly simple. We will have small cans throughout and two Barn Light Electric warehouse sconces on the large south wall. In addition, I bought 4 vintage Crouse Hinds explosion proof sconce lights for the loft from a seller on Ebay. They came from a utility tunnel from a Kentucky dam circa 1944. I think it's important to introduce old elements into a new space so there are connection points between new and old.
