How to Design The Perfect Powder Room

How to Design The Perfect Powder Room

A powder room is a smaller, half bathroom that usually consists of a toilet and small vanity with mirror for quick visits and makeup touch-ups. If you have a powder room located near the entertaining area, it will also avoid guests having to walk through the entire house to find the rest room.

Vanities and storge

With so many custom made vanities to choose from, you will be able to find a style and colour that suits your design choices. Timberline, Ingrain, Marquis and ADP have a range of vanities that start at 400mm and provide much needed storage for extra toilet rolls and toiletries.

If you don't have the space for a small vanity, consider a wall hung hand basin, you can even get one with a side shelf.

Toilets

Our top pick is a rimless toilet - the pan of the toilet is rimless, meaning there are nowhere for germs to hide and it is quick and easy to clean.

Behind the wall toilets are also a great choice for small powder rooms as the cistern is hidden in the wall for a minimal streamlined look.

Mirrors are a must

Oh how we love a large mirror in a small space! The mirror will give the illusion of a larger room and also gives you or your guests an extra space in the home to get ready.

Add colour

Add style and personality with splash of colour through your tile or tapware choices. Feature tiles behind the vanity are one of our favourite ways to elevate a space, after all, it's a space that most of your guests will see.

Essential decor

Add a little luxury to your powder room with beautiful soft hand towels, a lovely scented candle, a leafy green pot plant and a stylish soap dish or jewellery dish.
