The traditional style of this bathroom is updated with the use of a clean, fresh colour palette. The soft green blue of the cabinets and walls are a perfect compliment to the bright white panelling and fixtures. And with a single sink that is wide enough for two, this small space offers maximum practicality.

This traditional powder room gets a dramatic punch with a petite crystal chandelier, Graham and Brown Vintage Flock wallpaper above the wainscoting, and a black ceiling. The ceiling is Benjamin Moore's Twilight Zone 2127-10 in a pearl finish. White trim is a custom mix. Photo by Joseph St. Pierre.
