Historic Pillsbury Mansion Bath

Did you get a chance to tour this Minneapolis mansion in July, 2024? The 1904 Alfred and Eleanor Pillsbury mansion was recently purchased and remodeled by the new homeowners with the help of 30 ASID MN interior design firms and 8 NARI MN building contractors.

Our design restored period elegance to a bath that became part of the Childrens Suite. It features a Carrara marble floor that matches the original marble window and door casings. A fresh green wall tile echoes various green tiles and stones found in fireplace surrounds throughout the home. A blue and green French wallpaper seems to be a pen-and-ink drawing of trees with a wash of watercolor paints. Period-reminiscent fixtures finish it off. The client anticipates the room eventually being part of a guest suite after the kids grow up. To this end, the room feels youthful and fresh — but one that anyone could enjoy!
