Steal This Look: Moody Glamour in a Charleston Master Bath - Remodelista
Yesterday we featured the latest residential design project from Workstead founders Robert Highsmith and Stefanie Brechbuehler in Charleston, South Carolina.
The project, the restoration of a three-story Italianate Victorian row house, features a master bath with an impactful palette: super dark green, modern brass lighting, and traditional fixtures.

The gallery-like master bath is an expression of what Robert and Stefanie call “Southern modernism.”
