Boring bathroom needs help

Stephanie
Год(а)/Лет назад: 2

This is our “powder room” on the main floor. It’s really boring and needs an upgrade. Floors are being replaced with Evoke Surge laminate in the color Lauren next month, so I’m in a position to change everything about it. Walls are Sherwin Williams Accessible Beige. My design style is laidback, almost “Japandi” (I guess?) with pops of dark blue, teal, maybe a little dark green, and various shades of grey. Help!

    Ok, I had to look up what Japandi is and may not totally have the aesthetic down. But here are a few items that might combine to be what you are looking for. It's fun learning about a new style and I can see the attraction to Japandi.


    Floating sink in wood could bring in the Scandi look. You'd have to see what wood looks best with your flooring. Use black faucet and black for other fixtures in the room including lighting.

    On the walls I like the idea of grasscloth to bring in a natural element. I'd prefer a neutral, natural color so the black fixtures can pop off it. In this case I'd use a black mirror too. If you use a greyish or blueish grasscloth you could hang a natural wood colored mirror like above to contrast the walls.

    Put a simple piece of artwork above the toilet that has a lot of negative space and brings in some of the colors that you like.

    I'm not sure what your lighting situation is but I would go minimal and contemporary.

    A couple of points I never like a hand towel in a PR I do not want to dry my hands on a towel everyone uses so think of disposible towels for sure . If Japandi is your style then IMO go very minimal and certainly not that sink I love wallpaper in PRs but can you post a pic of the flooring since that will have an effect on what you do .The mirror you have is too big for a pedestal sink and needs to be nicer . I do not think you need to have the toilet brush in the space . The lighting needs to be good in bathoroom so can you post the fixture you have? I like LEDs 4000K in both kitchens and bathrooms.

    I like the idea of grass cloth.
    I especially like it with green tile. Maybe you can incorporate somewhere. (See photos below)

    New vanity

    New flooring - can you show what you picked out?

    Wall treatment.

    This is a digital rendering of what the floor will look like. Trim will be white (I am painting it while floor is being installed). Also this is my current lighting situation 🤢

    I’ve toyed with the idea of getting rid of the towel ring and just using paper towels, but I don’t have a place to put a nice tray to hold them.
