One of the most sought-after home remodeling spaces in Boston for an individual or family is a primary bath.  We often address these spaces as regards both design and build when doing a custom whole home project for a client in Boston.

A beautiful primary bath utterly changes the dynamic and aesthetic of the home as well as the comfort, well-being and user experience of the primary occupant.

For myself personally, there is a tremendous amount of calm this space affords–a sanctuary and oasis of self-care if you will.

We love to help create this aesthetic in larger home additions or whole-home design and remodels which we do in Boston.

We pride ourselves on the use of natural light and sustainable materials in our work and seek to embrace a client’s personal aesthetic vision and help bring this to life.

Here are two beautiful bath and primary bath projects we have designed and crafted as part of larger architectural design build projects for clients in Boston’s Metro West and throughout the Greater Boston Area

An NEDC custom primary bath in Watertown

This dark and eclectic master bath combines reclaimed wood, large format tile, and mixed round tile with an asymmetrical tub to create a hideaway that you can immerse yourself in.

Combined rainfall and hand shower with recessed shower niches provide many showering options, while the wet area is open to the large tub with additional hand shower and waterfall spout.

A stunning eclectic light fixture provides whimsy and an air of the world traveler to the space.

An NEDC custom primary bath in Chestnut Hill

The clients wished for a serene space in their Chestnut Hill home that they could begin and end their hectic days in. Tapping into the outdoor showers of The Cape, where they also own a home, we decided to bring some teak into the wet area, accompanied by a skylight to catch the morning light for an “outdoor feel” inside of the suburbs.

The shower deck is supported by a product that is marketed for roof deck systems. It allows the deck to be removed to clean beneath it periodically, and to eventually be replaced after the marine grade varnish that protects the teak begins to wear. The tile is large format porcelain faux Calacata Gold.

The extremely long vanity and the linen closet were custom built for this space, and the wall and trim color were chosen to match the white of the furniture, so that the tile and the teak would be the only color remaining in the room.

The Toto Soiree widespread lav faucet was chosen, to accentuate the length of the vanity, and the clean lines of the Hansgrohe Axor Starck controls on the knee wall were selected to playoff of the grain of the teak. The mirror wraps the corner and overshoots the already extended vanity, so that even though the amount of teak is minimal, one is aware of it no matter their place in the room.

Best endorsement ever: “We love the bathrooms. We gather there as a family. Never expected that.”

At NEDC we are a creative team of over 20 architects, designers and artisan builders.   We honor the legacy of the Architect as a Master Builder, providing a white-glove experience for Boston homeowners seeking a significant home remodel.

Our services begin with conceptual design and extend through all interior and architectural design, integrating seamlessly with the full artisan build process.

Here are some of the key advantages to the architectural design build approach for Boston homeowners:

SIMPLICITY. We deliver all services from conceptual and interior design through full architectural development and planning. We then execute the full build followed by an industry-leading five-year warranty as a single, integrated team.

VALUE. Our design and planning team are experienced builders–they design and value engineer accordingly to meet your exact aesthetic taste and investment expectations BEFORE construction begins.

TRANSPARENCY OF COST—NO SURPRISES.  Because of complete planning and excellent coordination, change orders are infrequent and far below industry norm.

LITTLE TO NO STRESS.  We run the project from beginning to end. We are a creative, responsible, high-communication team and our clients are continuously informed about what is happening and are thus able to enjoy the creative process of their project.

At NEDC we are architects who build!

FIVE STARS!

I tell anyone who will listen how grateful I am to have worked with NEDC for our project. David and his entire team go above and beyond to ensure that their clients feel supported, heard, and in-the-know. I am a big believer in the design-build process and the protections it offers to the homeowner, and I’ve been consistently impressed by the beauty and function of our design as well as the team communication. I’d give NEDC 6 stars if I could!
