Design: Coote & Co Build: Mt Gisborne Homes Kitchen: Connors Kitchens by Design Photography: Lisa Cohen As a space for both family and guests to use when entertaining, the powder room in this Mount Macedon home needed to be both practical and fun. Considering the room’s lack of natural light, designer Charlotte Coote decided to keep the tones dark and moody, pairing high-gloss dark blue painted timber and textural lineal wallpaper with warm nickel tapware from Perrin & Rowe.

Enjoying the benefits of privacy with a soak in the stone bath with views through the large window, or connect directly with nature with a soak on the bath deck. The open double shower provides an easy to clean and contemporary space.

The owners love colour and were excited for us to invite fun through colour, pattern and texture across the kitchen cabinets, bathroom tiles and powder room wallpaper.
