This page : Segmented with Art Decolike sections to downplay its scale , a wall-height mirror effectively doubles the size of this powder room by designer Jason Saunders . The long , shallow Palomba countertop basin is matched with a gentle-flow Love Me tap that avoids splashes . A concealed LED strip lights washes light down the feature tin wall , accentuating its raised pattern . Art Deco pendant lights are in keeping with the home ’ s period character .
It ’ s rare for a designer to switch out a large window for a smaller one – that ’ s unless light and a sense of space are added in other ways . This is just one of the surprises in this powder room by owner / designer Jason Saunders of Arc Seven 1 .
“ This powder room occupies two-thirds of a redundant bathroom space in our renovated Art Deco-accented home ,” says Saunders . “ One feature is the sleek Palomba countertop basin . As the elongated element didn ’ t suit the casement windows behind , we replaced these with a mirror wall and added a slender vertical window to one side that echoes the shape of the basin .”
While the large mirror doubles the feeling of space in the now modest-sized room , so too does the floating under-bench cabinet . On the opposite wall , seen in reflection , is a tall storage cabinet – both units are in a moody smoked ash .
Wood is also seen in the stained recycled jarrah floorboards , chosen to match the home ’ s existing floors and to help ground the space .
Saunders says the pressed tin wall surface is the stand-out feature of the powder room .
“ This has had seven coats of paint applied and is finished in Porter ’ s Specialty Liquid Tin – a product that gives the metal an aged look .” search | save | share at
