arches and arched mirrors create a sense of softness. “The arches in the primary bath were added to introduce architectural interest and a soft, feminine touch that reflects our client,” says Weisz. “Their curves are echoed in the Brizo fixtures and complemented by tailored vanities and countertops, keeping the design balanced.” She notes that a marble mosaic with brass accents also highlights the hard- ware. “The result is a space that feels layered, cohesive, and effortlessly elegant.” Throughout the home, Weisz introduced natural, handmade elements to elevate it from pretty to artful. “Materials with subtle variation and craftsmanship bring soul and depth, cre- ating a layered environment where every detail feels considered,” she says.
