1. Farmhouse FreshWood, white and shiplap come together to make this narrow space bright and cozy. The floating vanity leaves room below for storage and makes the space feel less crowded. Design takeaway: Since powder rooms tend to be small, they’re a great space to add a ceiling treatment because it won’t overwhelm the space or your budget.MoreKey Measurements to Help You Design a Powder RoomPhoto Flip: 102 Eye-Popping Powder Rooms
2. Turn to the Dark Side A small powder room is a good spot to experiment with today’s popular navy, indigo, charcoal and true black paints and wallcoverings. Design takeaway: Little details matter in a powder room. Just look at this one’s elegant brass P-trap (the pipe under the sink).7 Inky Colors to Use Instead of Black
10. Terrific Tile FloorsCement tile adds color and pattern to this otherwise neutral powder room, tying in with the black-painted sink and aqua step stool. The room is also near a pool, so the tile’s natural slip resistance makes it a practical choice as well. Design takeaway: Make the most of a powder room’s limited floor space by covering it in a patterned tile.
9. Laundry nook. This broom closet is really a fully equipped laundry station, complete with a washer and a dryer. Mop, broom and cleaning supplies are stored in doors with built-in shelving and hooks. This is really the ultimate space saver, as there is no need for either a stand-alone broom closet or a separate laundry room — this laundry niche does it all.
