Winnetka Primary Bath Tub Remodel

Our customer’s primary bathroom in Winnetka was in desperate need of a transformation. The existing tub was not only outdated and leaking but also too large for comfort and unsafe to get in and out of. The BDS team was able to create a safe, functional, and aesthetically pleasing space while addressing the issues of the leaking tub and outdated design.

The original tub, installed in 2006, required thorough investigation to find materials that would blend seamlessly with the existing elements. BDS sourced a proportionally sized tub designed for one person, ensuring it fit comfortably within the space. While we reused the luxury faucet, we customized a tub drain control for improved accessibility, making it easier to use and maintain.

Winnetka Theater Room Remodel

When a leak from the primary suite tub above damaged a portion of the existing theater room, our BDS Team was brought in to reimagine the space. The original theater room, which didn’t match the aesthetic of the rest of the home, was an opportunity to create something truly spectacular. With the space mostly fixed by the foundation on three sides, we treated it as a blank canvas, drawing inspiration from the adjacent areas to align with the home's overall style.

 

Our Winnetka owners had a few clear requirements:

  • Seating: No less than eight seats with space for their grandkids.
  • Audio-Visual: They had an existing relationship with an AV company, which determined and spec'd the AV package. We collaborated closely on the space and layout requirements to ensure everything fit perfectly.
  • Sound Control: With seven enormous speakers and five subwoofers, sound attenuation was a top priority.
