There are plenty of bright colors that look just awesome in his tiny space, but 2020 brings with it three fabulous colors that make for a grand statement indeed. One is inspired by Pantone’s Color of the Year. He other takes cue from homeowners’ love for all things natural and green and the third is a hue that works with a wide range of styles and even serves as a warm neutral. Dazzling at times and understated on other occasions, these gorgeous powder rooms manage to steal the spotlight every single time.

Classic Blue is he color of the year and it is barely a surprise that many are quickly turning towards the color in an attempt to refresh their homes. The beauty of gorgeous and bold blue is undeniable and its flexibility allows you to work with a wide range of styles with ease. Be it the modern beach style, contemporary look, farmhouse with rustic elements or a style that is your own and eclectic – blue is a winner on absolutely every single occasion. Combining it with white is a natural choice and with even lighting, even the smallest powder room can look just stunning.

Going Green with Color

It is amazing to see how in the last 20 years, design in particular and the world in general has moved closer and closer towards a greener, healthier lifestyle. Even those in big cities now want to spend more time in the lap of nature. If you cannot bring actual greenery into the powder room because of limited space or style constraints, then the next best option is undoubtedly to go green with the wall color. Unlike blue, you have to be a bit more careful with green as too much of dark green can give the small space an ungainly look. One idea that we particularly love in here from the many below is the use of malachite green wallpaper.

Yellow Works with Different Styles

Yellow might be a surprising choice in the modern powder room, but it is still a color that can work well as both a neutral hue and one that rings brightness to the white interior. Textured walls in yellow are great in the Mediterranean style powder room with an ornate wooden vanity and this goes for the classic farmhouse-styled powder room as well. Be it walls colored in mellow yellow or a background covered in yellow wallpaper with a whole lot of pattern, this is a color that is bound to surprise you over the course of next few months.

  • Ravoli Drive Residence

    Sited on a site slightly under an acre in the heart of the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles, the site for this estate residence descends over thirty feet from top to bottom. Narrow at the street and widening toward the rear, the building was designed to appear as a very private single story structure from the street and expand as the house moves into the site. At just under 14,000 sq. ft. the house was conceived of as a California Modernist Estate the building utilizes the site slope and widening to create a wing typology each reaching into the site to capture garden spaces, set up views and account for service amenities. Designed for peak privacy to the street, there are a series of site walls and fencing that define the property edge. After passing through the gate, the entry to the house is through a descending Entry Garden with water feature with a view through the house to the slopes of Will Rodgers State Park beyond. Shaped as a modified T, the wings of the house extend into the landscape creating separate wings dedicated to the elaborate programming of the building. Containing formal spaces for Entry, Living and Dining the house also offers a large entertainment style kitchen, Large Family Room, Library, 16 person Theater, Wine Cellar, Gym with Spa Bath including Sauna and Steam Room, secondary winter closets, dedicated two bedroom Guest House as well as six bedrooms including a Master Suite over 1,500 square feet with his and hers baths and closets as well as a garage for seven plus additional carport parking for three. All of this is balanced with a series of large exterior decks, patios and pool all wrapping around the stately eighty-foot tall Eucalyptus tree, which served as the aesthetic basis for the materiality of the building. Balancing the solidity of the extensive board form concrete walls is an expansive use of glass and the warmth of stained wood siding throughout the building. The remainder of the building is wrapped in integral colored steel troweled stucco. This palette is based on the colors and tones of the tree that is the center of the garden. Passing materials from the interior to the exterior, doors disappearing into internal pockets and flooring extending onto the decks and patios all help to create a seamless relationship for the interior to the exterior, house to land. This relationship realizes a full use of the site for its entire acre site.
