One of the best things in the home is a heated floor, but our installer didn’t put them close enough to the cabinets so as I’m standing at the sink my toes are cold! I love the idea of the heated shower seat.
They say the devil is in the details and this video really reinforces that! Very helpful, almost invisible ideas that are so easily overlooked but when pointed out you realise how helpful and beneficial they are. Thanks Matt
Not sure how much everything in that bathroom would cost at retail, but the Kohler Veil Comfort Height Toilet alone is $6,000.00. Must be nice to have Kohler as a sponsor.

What an amazing and luxurious space Matt! So many details so well thought out. I love the heated floors right into the shower and bench. The shower speakers. The remote thermostat. The steamer! Get some breath blend essential oil in a tiny dish under the steam outlet...would smell so good! Super neat space. How cool you'll get to enjoy this space for years and years to come. Yay!
When I saw your thumbnail I immediately liked your tile. When the video started and I saw all of it and you said it came from Clay Imports, I was even more impressed. Great bathroom, very subtle use of premium materials, , the latest tech and quality craftsmanship. I totally agree with what you said about smaller spaces allowing higher end materials!
Nice efficient bath! Most enjoyed the tidbits of “I missed that” or “ I made that mistake”. Appreciate the humble nature here!
When you can lay on your bathroom vanity to wash your hair and still can't wash your feet at the same time, you do not have a compact vanity. Lol

Steam showers are great..had covid twice and it really helped clean out my lungs and sinus. during my covid experience I would steam 2 times a day
I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one that uses all these products on all are bathroom remodels. Here in Tennessee Thanks for a great video Matt
Super rich, subtle sophistication, excellent!!!
I love love love the shower controls both outside and inside the shower. I've thought for years this would be perfect and at various times searched for systems to do it without finding something perfect. Will check out this Kohler one.
So love this video and would more than love to have this home especially being disabled this bathroom would be so freaking awesome!!.. this is definitely my most favorite bath 🛁 on the show
Beautiful space! We finished a bathroom addition and used those same Kohler sconces and a Kohler medicine cabinets. Best $$ spent was our radiant heated floor! We went single bowl in a larger vanity to get more cabinet and counter space
@kamX-rz4uy

We did the same thing regarding the vanity. Single bowl, lots of cabinet and counter space. My wife and I aren't trying to use the sink at the same time so we didn't see the point to having a second one. When designing our house we thought very carefully about how we were going to use it and what we would need. I think most people simply think two of something is better than one.
I installed Kohler in our main floor powder room, 20 years later no issues. Toilet, pedestal sink all look great....but they are on the higher end $.
Love the details you gave! Put zero entry into my shower and I love it! Was hard to find info on KZread to do it.
Thanks for sharing. I appreciate how you showed us to the pocket door behind the shower, magnificent 😁
The Schluter shower products are very nice. I've been happy using them for many years.
Thanks Matt! You caught me just in time with the kohler dtv system and the sloped ceiling. Appreciate you…and nice digs

I have the Kerdi Heat in my bathroom floor and I love it.
Thank you for showing all the great stuff and the imperfections, these are all good teaching points
Matt, it looks incredible! Live the dream! Thanks for sharing all of it!
Really love most of these details and it's the type of video that makes me wonder what other details I may be missing. The slanted shower ceiling makes so much sense, I hate the condensation dripping on me in our current shower. The toilet seems excessive, I'd prefer a dim light in the whole toilet room rather than one inside the bowl... And with dogs, I don't want an auto-open toilet. BUT the auto flush is neat. The two things that stand out to me because that's what I'd like to design in our next house - is the bathroom and walk-in closet being attached. I'd put laundry in the walk-in closet... Get out of the shower, throw dirty laundry right where it goes, put on new clothes... Take clothes out of the dryer, put them away directly. Love the sliding pocket door with mirror too. Thanks for sharing!
Didn't expect various temperature resistant grout, good to know,
Love this, Matt. Taking notes!
Nice thought processes. Well done.
THIS IS A HUGE FLEX✅👍👏 PROBABLY A 45K+ BATHROOM, But when you have Kohler as a sponsor its a plus
Really nice video. I like the shower touchpad
I'm honestly surprised Matt didn't opt of a bidet, he seems like the type. I can't wait to get one in the house I build this year.
Thanks for admitting when you made a mistake with your framing choice! Love the honesty
Great work. Nice bit of luxury in there. But...t is a major winner in my book simply for the fact that there are doors/physical barriers separating the sleeping area from the darn bathroom. I despise open concept master bedrooms/suites. Love the channel.
Love the Robern medicine cabinets! Didn't see a link in the description but thanks for the details in the video, will check out the Profile line!
For speaker option, I really like the air vent that automatically turns on when it senses humidity. Auto Nighy light, motion sensor white light, and BT speaker all in home for about $150 at home depot ect.
Insane details. Love it.
GREAT VIDEO!!! thank you Matt. God Bless.
I’m surprised you mixed gold faucets and hardware with silver cabinet knobs… those should have been gold as well IMHO.
I’m in the very early stages of designing my own home for the future build, so this was perfect timing for a few things to consider, even if this is way more high tech and pricy than what I’ll be looking to do. The lighting tips alone are something I probably wouldn’t have though of, and plugs in drawers is a great idea. How do I go about getting a kohler sponsor?
Allllllll that and the only thing of note that we haven't been doing for YEARS already is the transom in the shower. Bathrooms are a specialty so it takes a while for regular GCs to adapt and catch on so that seems about right.
Hopefully you have a whole house water filter for that steam shower. Good to get anyway. Lot of contaminants are absorbed in the skin with just a regular shower. Plus taking showers in filtered water is just awesome.
Beautiful home, Taylor Morrison built my home in SC, I find all the mistakes watching your videos. I will be move involved with my next build.
I heated my shower floor specifically for getting it dry and avoiding mildew. I have a lot of grout with a river stone, too.
Luv your tips as Im planning my Timber Home with SIPS
Wow!! Steam shower is awesome!!
Great video Matt.
Nice job Matt!
Currently staying in a rental due to a house fire. Talk about oversight. The master bath has these wonderfully warm electric floor heatera under the tiles....except in front of the toilet

12:40 I don’t know if it’s possible at this point. But would it be possible to hook up the towel warmer to the shower system? My idea would to have the towel warmer heat up as soon as you start the shower and remain on for 2 to 3 hours after shower is done.
You have been in the house long enough to compute the amount of electricity your resistive heating units in the bathrooms cost to operate, that would be of interest. Luxury is one thing but I much prefer the KIS principal which is usually more repairable as well. Great idea to have the water filtration system or appliance longevity.

I'll bet he's pushing 2,000 watts maybe more if the shower has an electric heater as well.
Love the videos man!
Looks great, but honestly I'd also recommend going with stainless fixtures. They just tend to look more stylish over a longer period of time (brass and antiqued brass tend to go in and out). Very basic contemporary designs essentially won't ever be out of date.
Awesome video!
yeah sloped ceiling in steam shower is critical good call
Now all I have to do is win the lottery to afford such a bathroom for myself. Also, if that's your idea of a small bathroom, what size do you consider large? I did do something in my personal bathroom that everyone who's been it loves: I have a tub for soaking because sometimes that's what you need AND a shower for day to day cleanliness. Between the two is a towel closet which ALSO happens to be the access to all the plumbing through removable L & R panels inside the closet.

The plans our builder had, which we then customized, had a tub, towel closet, and then an open space which as an option could be turned into a shower resulting in what you have. We didn't see the point and instead shortened the bathroom a bit to have more space in the bedroom (which coincided with another change we made) and used the remaining space to extend the closet leaving us with plenty of storage space. We didn't see the point to having a separate shower but I guess if you are going to do something fancy with the shower like in this video it would make sense.

@@kamX-rz4uy I skipped mentioning (just didn't occur to me at the time) that the tub is not the standard 5 foot but is a 6.5 foot, deeper than normal tub with a circ pump and some jets (no air bubbles). Believe me, about once a week I fill it with 113 degree water as hot as I can stand and submerge everything but my face and soak until all the stress and tension leaves (at least an hour +) The showers great for mandatory loosening stiff muscles and joints in the morning (5 motorcycle wrecks racing; run over by a car, life flight and 21 days in intensive care with crushed chest and punctured lungs; rear ended by a drunk while sitting at a stoplight where they had to cut the car open do I could get out; scaffolding collapse dropped me 20 feet to the ground, etc... so lots of aches and pains) and a second time in the evening to clean the sweat and filth off before I cook dinner and relax [my work schedule is usually 5 12s & an 8] So you can see there's a good reason for both and worth every bit it cost.
Very nice bathroom... just built my house 2.5+ years ago and the builder didn't suggest any of these comforts. Makes me want to rip and replace to match yours!
Thanks Matt. I watched your sideburns for the rest of the video.
That toilet said 🚽 use me Master! Use me!! 😂 omg I said once I’ll say it again. This may not seem like a million or hundred million dollar home but it sure beats one by a long run! Everything just makes sense! I love it. :)
Nice! Great design, suprised there doesn't appear to be a shower niche. No grab bars in the shower either, when I did my shower finding a attractive grab bars was nearly impossible. I used Kohler barre fixtures. They seem to be the most functional without looking institutional

I believe the niche is in that pony wall based on the construction video he did earlier focusing on the Schluter and Kerdi systems he used in there. The heated bench runs along that wall opposite the shower head too, IIRC.
THE PLUG IN THE DRAWER. Big brain stuff right here.
Fantastic content. Thanks
Love your show. I am puzzled, that with all the other high-tech items in your bathroom you didn’t get no-touch faucets, especially in the bathroom, although of course you always wanna have a manual back up. What was your thinking about that? Secondly, all the high-tech networking & items, is so COOL, but you just know, or suspect, the law of averages, at any given time there’s gonna be some box that’s got a hardware issue, or more likely will require a firmware upgrade, or an OS update, just to get your shower to turn on. Sure looking forward to your review in a year or two about how all that goes …. Thanks again for such a fantastic series of videos …
Very nice bathroom!
Awesome, thanks for sharing
Awesome Job!!!
So you were worried about having a mixer in the wall that you might need to replace one day. But then you go and install speakers in the wall that will no doubt have a shorter life span than a mixer. And unlikely to still be available in 5-10 years time
hi from Colorado nice bathroom I wish you were around when I was building houses
Awesome tips
Great loooks wonderful
Matt - check your TCNA handbook on the ceiling slope for steamers - install guidelines are 2" per foot
Would you please do a follow up video in a year to show how great this bathroom looks with the high quality water treatment you installed in your home?
the shoe closet is the best
I love pocket doors!
Love your vidoes! We are in the process of having an addition built on our house to make our bathroom and closet larger. Our bathroom specs are almost identical to yours but our shower is 4'x6'.4" and the bathroom width is 6'.4" so just a little wider than yours. Our double vanity will be just like yours measuring at 10'.9". Any advice about getting a piece of stone (preferably quarts) that big and how to get a custom cabinet that large? Only big difference between our bathrooms will be we have a 32" window in-between the 2 mirrors/vanity sections and a linear window on the back shower wall, everything else is almost identical. your videos are helping us so much!!
whew, SO glad I watched this when my girlfriend wasn't home. If she would have seen this bathroom i would have went broke.

Shower system, steam, hardware, faucets with gold finish $$$, high end medicine cabinets, sinks guessing 25k+. Not cheap. Questionable ROI if paying out of pocket from finance perspective.

Matt, that wasn't a Sharpie. I use those Milwaukie Pens all the time in my tile work because they will clean off after the cut. Not saying it's a bad tile. Indeed, it looks and probably performs great. A real Sharpie brand Sharpie may also clean off but not as easily. Of course, with porcelain tile and epoxy grout a mortar float pan would never saturate. Good choice either way (if just a bit pricier). I agree on Kohler products. They are always no hassle. Always glad when my customers choose Kohler.
This is probably covered in the comments already or in some of your other videos, but I'm curious about how the moisture/humidity is managed in the closet. What are best practices to keep both of these spaces dry and maintain good air quality?
