Inside a Seven-Bedroom Destin Project: Coordinating Six Bathroom Designs
A seven-bedroom residence in Destin, Florida, included six bathrooms with room-specific tile and finish decisions. MK Properties Design contributed bathroom design and finish-selection support, organizing the documented choices by room so the project team could review the materials and intended applications together.
Project scope: six bathrooms in one larger residence
The work covered a multi-level home in Destin. The bathroom selection record was divided into six named bathroom areas, with decisions for tile, trim, shower details, and placement. This article focuses on that documented bathroom scope, rather than implying that MK managed the full construction project.
Each space had its own conditions and design requirements. Some material families repeat across rooms, while tile size, pattern, and application vary. That balance gave the rooms a related material language without requiring every bathroom to use the same layout.
How the bathroom selections were coordinated
The published case study describes a warm camel-toned accent tile paired with white brushed field tile and polished Carrara trim. The supplier selection record also assigns materials to specific locations, including shower walls, floors, pans, niches, curbs, and tub surrounds. It records patterns such as vertical stack, offset brick, herringbone, and diagonal layouts.
These are documented selections and layout notes. They should not be read as confirmation that every listed product was ultimately installed. Final quantities, field conditions, product suitability, and installation details require confirmation by the responsible project professionals.
What the room-by-room record helped organize
Rather than leaving choices scattered across product pages and messages, the schedule grouped product descriptions, quantities, and placement notes by bathroom. That structure makes it easier for a homeowner and project team to see which selection belongs to which room and where a material is intended to go.
For a multi-bathroom project, a useful record also makes differences visible: one floor may use a diagonal pattern while a shower wall uses a vertical arrangement; a niche or curb may require its own trim decision. Organizing these details together supports review and coordination, while the installer still verifies dimensions and installation conditions in the field.
Lessons from this project
- Start with the room and application. A product name alone does not explain whether it is intended for a shower wall, floor, niche, or tub surround.
- Record pattern and orientation alongside the material. “Tile selected” is less useful to a project team than the selected product paired with its intended location and layout direction.
- Keep repeated finishes and room-specific variations visible in one place. This lets the team compare the overall palette without losing each bathroom’s details.
- Separate design documentation from installation approval. The schedule communicates the design intent; field verification and installation decisions remain with the appropriate project professionals.
