This powder room could be described as a successful marriage of lines, from the faint horizontal ones on the wallpaper to the bolder vertical ones in the wainscoting. The circular mirror and bowl-shaped sink provide welcome curves
Task lighting wattage in the powder room. Task lights in powder rooms can have much less wattage (think 45-watt range), as this is not a space where anyone will be performing the morning ritual. Lower wattage provides a softer, relaxing ambience for guests. Find a color temperature that makes the room feel inviting and illuminates guests in the most attractive way.
In the powder room, this same two-layer drywall ceiling detail gives the illusion that there is crown molding without actually using any at all. If you have an 8-foot ceiling, but would like the look of crown molding, this would be a great option that wouldn't make the ceiling look lower. Layer the dry wall on the ceiling to create height, see other picture
Chicago artisan Anna Wolfson created the wallcovering for the first-floor powder room out of burlap. The floors are covered in a hexagon cement tile, and the custom soapstone sink was designed by Thelen.
