This bathroom is an actual fantasy and the fact that it’s ours is still insane to me. When people walk in, their reaction is “omg. stop it.” It’s been six months since it was finished and three months since we shot so at the end, I’ll let you know how things are wearing and any extra “learnings” because guys, THERE ARE ALWAYS LEARNINGS.
