2. Large windows were planned to offer views of a nearby lake—a better option than the usual tiny frosted windows installed for privacy.
3. Burnished fixtures with dramatic patina offset the room’s pale palette.
4. intage-look pendant lighting might seem an unusual choice for a bathroom (top), but Cooper-Smith’s choice provides perfect vintage appeal.
5. Cooper-Smith cleverly switched up the sizes of the floor and shower tiles for dramatic impact.
6. Dark wood window frames and trim maintain a formal country sensibility.
7. Separate tub and shower stalls are the new country bath must-haves (this one at right is a steam shower with a number of body sprays!), space and budget permitting.

9. A flat-screen TV is the ultimate in bathroom bliss. Cooper-Smith likes them because they fit unobtrusively into virtually any bathroom decorating scheme.
