A large hallway close to the foyer was used to build the powder room. The lack of windows and natural lights called for the need of extra lighting and some "Wows". We chose a beautiful white onyx slab, added a 6"H skirt and underlit it with LED strip lights.

Luxurious Calcutta Gold Marble Kitchen Island, Perimeter Countertops and Backsplash create a Sleek, Modern Look while the 21′ Floor-to-Ceiling Stone Fireplace evokes feelings of Rustic Elegance.

The Eze Breeze Window System slide down easily allowing a cool breeze to flow in with sounds of birds chirping and the leaves rustling in the trees. Curl up on the couch in front of the real wood burning fireplace while marinated grilled steaks are turned over on the outdoor stainless-steel grill.

Powder Room Design Ideas with Shaker Cabinets and Onyx Benchtops

Think of your powder room as a small bathroom that’s always on display. Likely to be frequented by guests or used as a second bathroom by family members, it should always look its best. Consisting of little more than a vanity, toilet and sink, you could be mistaken that powder room designs are easy to execute, but the tight space can be tricky to get right. As you plan your bathroom renovation, consider the following.

How do I plan the layout of my powder room?

If you're building from scratch, an architect may be the best person to ask. There are three main objects to consider when planning the layout of your powder room: the door, toilet and sink. Pocket, sliding or folding doors will give you more options for toilet and sink placement, while wall-mounted toilets will help save you a few inches of floor space, and make the room feel more spacious. To ensure ease of use, make sure the toilet has at least 38 centimetres of unobstructed space on either side, and 61 centimetres at the front. Powder rooms are primarily a place to use the toilet and quickly wash your hands, so unless you have the square meterage, you don’t need a full-blown vanity. Look for compact options, like a pedestal or wall-mounted sink instead.

What materials should I use in my powder room?

There’s not much space to work with when designing a powder room, so keep your design fairly simple. Otherwise, too many different patterns and textures will quickly overwhelm the space. To avoid a disjointed design, opt for one statement piece or element, such as a fun splashback, benchtop or vanity, and choose subtle materials like stone, marble or granite for everything else. If you fear you haven’t created enough visual interest, fill the void with bathroom accessories such as hand towels and soap dispensers. High-quality bathroom fixtures – including everything from your toilet roll holder to faucet – with matching lines and style, will make a big difference in a such a small space, so if you have the budget, splurge a little!
