Powder rooms are often overlooked in terms of spaces in which to play with big design ideas. In reality, these high-functioning areas should be thought of as an opportunity to incorporate designs you’ve always wanted to try but wouldn’t otherwise commit to on a larger scale. Think of powder rooms as an ideal place to incorporate a statement wall, uniquely patterned floor tile, or to try your hand at a trend you’ve had your eye on, but haven’t quite been ready to take the plunge yet.

“Powder rooms are also

often the most visited

bathroom in the house.”

Let’s not forget that powder rooms are also often the most visited bathroom in the house. The likelihood that visitors will use your upstairs bathrooms is slim, so you’ll want to make a big impression in your powder room and make sure no detail goes amiss. Show off your personality in full by opting for a tile that feels cohesive with the rest of your home, but takes your design to the next level.

So, whether you go for a feminine-floral pattern, or opt for modern geometrics, now’s the time to go bold in your powder room. What will you choose?
