This sleek powder room uses colour , texture and strong , sculptural form to engage the eye .
Designer Laila Colvin of 2id Interiors says the apartment containing this powder room is contemporary and elegant , with Calacatta marble on the floors , walnut panels on the walls and an eggplant purple colour used as an accent .
“ In keeping with this look , we wanted to introduce a minimalist vanity into the powder room but to also go bold on the walls . To achieve this , we sourced a purple faux cowhide wallpaper for two accent walls and the clients loved it !”
However , the vibrant , luxuriously textured wallcovering is balanced out with other features – such as the large back-lit mirror . The mirror not only doubles the size of the space visually , it also bounces light around the internally positioned powder room
“ In addition , we came up with the concept of a strong , simple marble pedestal for the sink . When we introduced the frosted glass sink , it looked like a sculpture sitting on a display pedestal . We felt in love with that arty look and incorporated it into the design ,” says Colvin . “ We paired the pedestal sink with a wallmounted tap – another interesting detail .”
This page : Two white walls , a white marble floor and white pedestal vanity stand with a white frosted glass vessel on top – and now , for contrast , two purple faux cowhide wallpaper accent walls . This modern powder room by designers Laila Colvin and Rafaela Simoes has several prominent features , from the vivid accent walls to the floating back-lit mirror and sculpture-like freestanding frosted glass basin on its marble plinth .
