A well-designed powder room can make a great impression on guests and have a positive impact on the value of your home.
Powder rooms are highly sought after features of a home because they allow guests to be able to enjoy the common areas of your home without having to go into private bedrooms and other areas in order to use the bathroom.
Due to the small size of the powder room, renovations can often be more extensive and stylish because less materials are required, which means lower overall costs.
Here are a few tips and ideas which make for a stylish powder room:
- Mixing elegant materials with traditional ones is a prime way to improve the look and feel of the room without making it too lavish. Pairing a traditional faucet with a marble counter-top and an under-mount sink will add a touch of beauty and reduce the feel of clutter at the same time.
- A popular trend in recent times has been above-the-counter sink basins (also known as vessel sinks), as pictured here with the Contempo Silver Vanity by Ultimate Accents. This instantly brings the powder room into the 21st century, while the treatment works well with both traditional and contemporary designs.
- A curtain with rich textures that flows from floor-to-ceiling in between the vanity and the toilet will provide some privacy and allow two people to use the space at once; which is especially useful if you’re hosting multiple overnight guests in a smaller space.
