WASHROOMS WITH WOW FACTOR

Beautiful tile, perfectly paired wallpapers, lighting that dazzles -

these washrooms create some serious wow factor!

If you have had a design meeting with me, chances are you have heard me say “I love to design sweet little powder rooms, they are like the little jewel box of your home!” I say it a lot, because, quite frankly, I just believe in it that much. That’s a space where you can have fun, get creative and really give your guests something really unexpected when they open the door.

However, as of lately, we have been so fortunate to work with such amazing and trusting clients, that this “jewel box” philosophy has worked its way into the everyday functional washrooms, too!

Here are a few of our favorite washrooms and powder baths with wow factor of the years, no particular order, just beautiful spaces that make us happy!


CHARMING SOUTHERN STYLE WASHROOM

When designing the guest bathroom for this custom home last year, we wanted it to be bright and airy, but have a bit of southern charm, to match the style of the whole property. So we had fun with textured tiles, wallpaper and tiles that showcased hand painted patterns. I love how the window in the shower allows the room to be flooded with natural light. See the rest of the property tour here.

ABSTRACT ART INSPIRED POWDER ROOM

This powder bath was truly an interesting situation! When diving into the renovation of this home, the house only had 2 full bathrooms… and one awkward hall with lots of doors and a weird closet. Our pal, Brooke, the awesome kitchen & bath designer of Bee Studios, who we collaborated with on this project had the great idea to rework the space and fit in this really great powder bath. So the LGDesign team got to work to make this new washroom a stylish new addition. Beautifully selected tiles paired with chic metal tones all topped off with a great hand painted mural from one of our favorite local artists!

HIGH STYLE POWDER ROOM

For this modern high rise property we went full throttle with color, pattern and texture. The raspberry hues flow throughout the condo and do not rest in the powder bath. Mixing different tones of marble create an elegant nod to design, while the fun wallpaper, lighting and hardware make it layered and modern. Loving this vibe? Check out the whole property tour here.

BOHEMIAN MODERN WASHROOM

This is another one of the bathrooms we had fun working on with Bee Studios, in the same house as mentioned above with the added powder bath. This bathroom turned out so sweet, just as intended for the 4 year old it was designed for! The house is an older home, so keeping some historic referenced tiles made perfect sense. Then we had fun topping it off with whimsical and modern lighting. All in all, it’s fun, beautiful and something she will be able to grow up with over time!

FASHION FORWARD WASHROOM

This next washroom is fresh out of the design vault! As in literally, our client just got certificate of occupancy a week ago! We can’t wait to get this pretty space professionally photographed, but for now - this iPhone photo will have to do.

There are so many beautiful things to talk about in this space, it’s hard to say what we love most… so in this case, we will just let the photo do the talking! Stay tuned for when we reveal the rest of the project in the near future.
