Have you ever go to your bathroom and imagine how much better it could look? Then close the door and forget – until a guest has to use the toilet. Just because this room is hidden down the hallway does not mean that it shouldn't have a personality. In fact, we see more and more people who transform their secondary bathrooms into style statements. “Especially because they are smaller and closed areas, they are safer to take risks,” explains Veronica Solomon, President and leading interior designer of Casa Vilora Interiors, why.

If you have revised this small space, you consider this as your sign to go out. Play around with bizarre devices, take some color risks or even try a design scheme with which you would not have dared before. “Half -baths are no longer in the BASIC surfaces of the builder, as we have seen in the past,” Solomon said in her exclusive interview with House Digest. The best thing about it? The limited number of square meters also means that you do not have to empty your bank account to style your powder room.

Pay attention to special attention to your half bathroom walls

Showing your half bath walls is a little love (or in this case a lot of love) one of the best ways to take your personality to your decoration scheme. Veronica Solomon seconds this and says: “Things like [removable] Wallpaper is now common in half bathrooms and it is a trend that I don't go away. “These tiny rooms do not become steaming, so there are chances that your wallpaper will take off or if we go home, could we suggest dramatic pressure on how the flowers flower wallpaper and glue?

Everything visually dynamic becomes honest. You can papers the four walls, create an accent wall behind your toilet/sink or only cover the lower half of your walls, depending on how brave you want. If you prefer to paint your walls or need color palette ideas, take a dark gray, rich, olive green and plum for a wow-worthy, moody atmosphere. And no, dark colors do not make your powder room appear smaller than it is-do you make the room (including the door) in a enveloping color if you want.

Similar to wallpaper, this will add a blow from drama that your visitors will not expect. Just make sure the room is well lit! We have also learned from our exclusive chat with Solomon that works of art also earn a place in half bathrooms. Take this as your keyword to cover the walls with vintage prints, abstract pieces, flower drawings and line art. These can help to give this otherwise useful space texture and even more visual interest.

Design elements that can dress in half a bathroom

For those who are finally ready to convert their powder room, the first step could replace their basic sink. There are many stylish statements, from marble basin to concrete washbasins. “Worktop materials are more rich stone materials,” Veronica Solomon tells us exclusively and refers to modern design trends for half baths. You may want to take this into account if your goal is to transform half the bath into a mini -spa retreat.

Next up could be on the list of floors. We suggest to target something in equal parts, fat and timeless. In this way it can easily be combined with constantly changing wall paint and decor styles. Think of the hardwood floor, geometric tiles and mosaic designs in neutral colors. According to HomeGuide, you should expect around 2,500 to 5,000 US dollars for a simple half -bath renovation.

What if you work with a closer budget? Improvement of the hardware and sanitary devices as your towel holder, toilet handle, door knob and tap-sind great budget-friendly decoration ideas to improve a powder room. Solomon considers this to be the jewelry of the room. While gold and brass surfaces radiate a luxurious feeling, black and silver are for a modern flair.
