Cole House Design was called by a Halton homeowner recently, to assess what could be done to help her plain-jane taupe coloured powder room. Living in a smaller sized house, she had little storage space on the main floor, and was hoping to remedy that by redesigning the bathroom.
The pedestal sink in her powder room provided no storage, so we opted to change it to a wooden vanity with tons of space below the sink. We also added a two bin slide-out garbage can/recycling centre for those pesky toilet paper rolls. The cabinet is done in maple with a dark walnut stain and has slab doors which are very trendy right now. The vanity top is granite with golden hues running throughout, paired with an undermount white sink. We also purchased a new faucet in a simple but modern design.
We exchanged the cheap builder mirror for a painted frame mirror that we picked up for a steal at Canadian Tire. We also purchased a new towel bar, as well as a dual light bathroom fixture all in a brushed stainless finish. The greyish-beige ceramic tiles on the floor were kept the same, as they were neutral and in good condition. The walls were painted in Benjamin Moore "French Toast - CC244", a nice soft buttery-yellow which brightened up the small powder room. We found a large inexpensive canvas at Homesense, as well as some candles and towels, which all added pops of colour to the room.
And all this on a minimal budget! The homeowner loves her new powder room and is ecstatic with the additional storage space. If your home could use a room-redesign, please call Cole House Design!
Thanks for reading!
