Add Fun + Personality

The powder room is a small space in your home where you can incorporate high-impact design. Terracotta Design Build in Atlanta, Georgia shares ideas on how to rev up your own bathroom space. Idea #1: Terracotta Design Build encourages adding "freestanding storage and bright red stools to provide a burst of color and a bit of youth and accessibility," says interior designer Ili Hidalgo-Nilsson.

Mirror Illusions

In a small powder room using large mirrors is a great option to open up a small space. "We designed a custom wall to wall frameless mirror to give the illusion of a larger space. The two inside panels open for extra storage, leaving the outer panels the perfect spot for matching nickel sconces" says interior designer Ili Hidalgo Nilsson of Terracotta Design Build.

High Contrast

Contrasting colors make a bold and dramatic statement. Interior designer, Ili Hidalgo-Nilsson of Terracotta Design Build says, "since it's such a small space, this powder room was the perfect place to go glam with decadent finishes like that deep teal wallpaper and Ann Sacks tile - it's a perfect little jewel box!"

Colorful Vanity

Try using a striking color in your powder room that will set your space apart from the rest. "Choose a bold color for a powder room and while you're at it, make it high gloss," says Hidalgo-Nilsson.
