This custom powder bathroom was an absolute delight to design. It’s a chinoiserie jewel! The walls are magnificently hand finished in a bass relief plaster with hand carved details creating a folly pagoda, lattice border, and tree of life with hand carved wispy eucalyptus leaves gilded in Cooper. The vanity is an antique Louis commode with a glass counter top and marble vessel sink.

This is the project that started the entire process of design for the home. Although this home is of mediterranean architecture the client wanted traditional decor with true chinoiserie influences. My vision for this space was to feel as if you were standing in a follies garden under the tree of life with branches of wispy eucalyptus leaves dipped in copper carved into the fresh plaster walls with bass relief fretwork bordering the view of an elegant pagoda in the background. You'll also see a hand painted happy little chinaman sitting on a swing on the toilet room wall. The velvety hand plastered walls were painted variations of eucalyptus green and dressed with a magnificant vintage gold pagoda mirror and a vintage art nouveau brass light fixture with hand painted flowers b;emndiong right into the look as if it was made for this scenery. The onyx vessel sink sits on top of a frost glass counter surface to protect the antique Louis commode used as vanity with bronzed bamboo motif faucet.

Powder Room Design Ideas with Glass Benchtops and Green Benchtops

Think of your powder room as a small bathroom that’s always on display. Likely to be frequented by guests or used as a second bathroom by family members, it should always look its best. Consisting of little more than a vanity, toilet and sink, you could be mistaken that powder room designs are easy to execute, but the tight space can be tricky to get right. As you plan your bathroom renovation, consider the following.

How do I plan the layout of my powder room?

If you're building from scratch, an architect may be the best person to ask. There are three main objects to consider when planning the layout of your powder room: the door, toilet and sink. Pocket, sliding or folding doors will give you more options for toilet and sink placement, while wall-mounted toilets will help save you a few inches of floor space, and make the room feel more spacious. To ensure ease of use, make sure the toilet has at least 38 centimetres of unobstructed space on either side, and 61 centimetres at the front. Powder rooms are primarily a place to use the toilet and quickly wash your hands, so unless you have the square meterage, you don’t need a full-blown vanity. Look for compact options, like a pedestal or wall-mounted sink instead.

What materials should I use in my powder room?

There’s not much space to work with when designing a powder room, so keep your design fairly simple. Otherwise, too many different patterns and textures will quickly overwhelm the space. To avoid a disjointed design, opt for one statement piece or element, such as a fun splashback, benchtop or vanity, and choose subtle materials like stone, marble or granite for everything else. If you fear you haven’t created enough visual interest, fill the void with bathroom accessories such as hand towels and soap dispensers. High-quality bathroom fixtures – including everything from your toilet roll holder to faucet – with matching lines and style, will make a big difference in a such a small space, so if you have the budget, splurge a little!
