Best Spaces: The Powder Room


 

Happy Friday everyone!

Welcome to our design blog.

 

A powder room is a half bath (only toilet and sink) that is typically reserved for guest use and located on the main level of the home. Even though powder rooms are often very utilitarian, they are also an open canvas when it comes to styling. From Moroccan tile patterns to vessel sinks, half baths can take on an array of styles. Powder rooms can be the perfect place to stray from your home's palette and take a design risk. Here are a few awesome powder rooms that might give you some inspiration for your next bathroom remodel!

1: Floating Vanity

Floating vanities are a great way to make a small space feel larger. The void under the vanity tricks the eye into thinking the space is bigger than it is. Sometimes, strip lighting is added under a floating vanity to accentuate the void space making the space feel even bigger.

2. Fun Wallpaper

As stated in the first paragraph - powder rooms are the perfect place to take a design risk. Wallpaper can be an inexpensive way to transform the entire space. If it is carried from floor to ceiling, wallpaper can also make the space feel larger.

3. Bold Black Walls

If you want a high contrast look, don't be afraid to paint the walls black! This can create a dramatic and exciting powder room. When executed correctly, other elements in the space can be used to balance and soften the heaviness of black.
