This 1950s bathroom was dark, cramped, and overdue for a refresh. The layout technically worked, but the space felt heavy and underlit, with a small vanity, poor storage, and outdated finishes. Our goal was to brighten the room, bring in more personality, and upgrade the layout just enough to make everyday use feel easier all while keeping the charm of a midcentury home.

Our Client's Vision
Bathroom Color Palette
Bathroom Mood Board
Our client dreamed of a kitchen that felt open, full of light, and as fun and colorful as her personality. Introducing a pink backsplash became the color moment she’d always imagined, paired with light cabinetry to keep everything airy and bright.
In the dining room, she pictured a cozier, more grounded backdrop: wallpaper with warmth, mid-century lighting, and a mood that complemented the kitchen without competing with it. Opening the two rooms to each other let the palettes connect, while the kitchen’s patterned flooring, brass details, and playful mix of textures carried her love of color and cheer throughout the space.
The Moonstone Effect
The final result is a kitchen and dining room that feel open, joyful, and completely reflective of our client’s personality.
Used a pink tile backsplash as the playful color moment our client had always envisioned
Added modern, light wood cabinetry to keep the kitchen bright, soft, and airy
Installed patterned teal flooring for a bold, mid-mod moment that grounds the space
Brought wallpaper and midcentury-inspired lighting into the dining room for warmth, texture, and personality

client testimonial
Lidia + her team were fantastic when working with them on my kitchen and bathroom remodel. Choosing materials with Lidia was so easy, and she made sure that we were on the same page with design and budget. Whenever we had concerns or questions about the remodel, Lidia and her team would listen and act accordingly. I would use Moonstone Design + Build again.
