Elegant Powder Room with Garden Motif in The Highlands.

DESIGN PROBLEMS

• The miniscule size of the existing powder room allowed no room for a sink. The nearest sink was down a long hall in the kitchen.

• The 1970's décor was outdated and not in harmony with the formality and grace of the 18th century classical architectural style and décor of the rest of the home.

CLIENT REQUESTS

• Create space for a larger powder room within the laundry room addition adjacent to the new kitchen.

• Create an 18th century ambience within the space coordinating the décor with the surrounding areas.

• Some storage, please.

DESIGN SOLUTIONS

• Powder room was relocated to the addition/bump out to the existing, attached, large, three car garage.

• A bow front vanity with two drawer bases for storage was added. Applied Rococo ornamentation was added to the bow fronted sink base.

• A polished brass sink, faucet and accessories compliment a deep green, marble slab counter top.

• A gold finished mirror ornamented with gold swags is flanked by gold finished wall sconces which repeat the swaged motif of the mirror.

• Fluted casings, crown molding and chair rail further enhance the classic vocabulary of the space.

• A garden motif is given to the walls by a faux finished chinoiserie design inspired by a collaged wall treatment in one of England's stately homes. The artist used birds found in the pages of the Audubon Society Magazine as her models.

• The client loves the convenience and look of her new powder room. The new space coordinates with the character of the rest of the home beautifully.
