Taking a risk with the design in our powder bath was definitely a fun and rewarding experience! We recently updated our powder bath from builder grade to full of personality.
The first thing I selected that set the tone of this space was the wallpaper. It’s bold, eye catching and like nothing else in the rest of our home. I wanted to push myself a bit out of my comfort zone in this space. I have to say, anytime I feature this space the number one question I get is, “where is the wallpaper from“?
I then selected a new vanity sink. I needed to add some texture to this space and the distressed wood shelves provided just that. I absolutely love the modern and rustic elements that the vanity sink brings to the powder bath.
I also needed to balance out all the straight lines with some rounded edges. The light fixture perfectly fits the bold vibe of this space with the glass globes, as well as the brass and black accents. An arched mirror was also a must when designing this space in order to soften the lines.
To complete the update, accents and decor were added. A small arrangement of faux flowers to also bring a softness to the space. A decorative tray is always a must for me to hold hand soap, tissue, a candle or decorative containers.
Pro tip: When designing a bold powder bath, choose one standout element as the focal point, and let the other begin element, like fixtures and accessories, complement and enhance it rather than complete with it.
