Tucked into a 1960s home in White Rock Lake, this bathroom remodel in Dallas set out to keep the home’s vintage character while fixing what no longer worked. The clients loved the personality of the original house, so the goal was a refresh, not a departure. Heavy soffits lowered the ceiling, full-height tile wainscoting made the room feel busy, and a shallow vanity offered little storage. We removed the soffits, recreated the decorative plaster ceiling details, and added a deeper vanity with real drawer storage and a medicine cabinet mirror. Dimmable lighting and a lit shower made mornings easier, and a recessed niche and towel storage under the window replaced the hooks on the back of the door. The original pony wall stayed, and playful color-blocked walls nod to the old tile wainscoting. The room feels brighter and larger, and it’s still right at home in a mid-century house.
