Designer Erik Kramvik gets noticed in this article in the New York Times
"And even in houses that would seem to be all about the past, it’s possible to create a period bathroom that isn’t mired in it. Ingrid Weiss, a real estate agent who lives on Belvedere Island in San Francisco Bay, has just finished a two-year renovation that included the gutting and enlargement of the master bathroom in the 1892 Queen Anne-style house that she and her husband bought in 1978.
“It’s been the love of our lives and dear, dear friend,” she said of the house, which is considered a historic landmark on the island. But Ms. Weiss, working with Erik Kramvik, an architectural designer (he is part of a Bay Area collective called Artistic License, which brings together architects and artisans specializing in period restoration), set out to capture the essence of a Victorian bath without giving the room a kitschy bond to the era."
