When it comes to designing a high-impact space with minimal square footage, you have to be strategic—but you can also have just as much fun. In a powder room, for example, experimenting with color and pattern is so much less intimidating than it is in a massive, wide open space. Indeed, powder rooms tend to be some of the most exciting rooms in the house to decorate. We're spotlighting the chicest powder rooms we've ever seen, each with accompanying decorating tips and clever storage solutions.

1. Enhance Privacy

Add a partial wall to enhance privacy and create more depth. In this bathroom, the partition actually makes the space feel larger and more dynamic. Using bright whites with gold light fixtures breaks up the sea of white nicely.

2. Time to Embrace Greenery

2021 is a year when every room of the home will see a spurt in presence of green and that is an approach which will work well in the powder room as well. Add an indoor plan to the powder room to create a sense of freshness in the space. Connecting the powder room with the view outside using glass windows and doors is another smart way to add green to the setting. If indoor plants and the view outside is not to your liking, then you can even use a dash of green to enliven the setting.

3. Mix Old and New

In this bathroom, the classic black and white marble floors, delicate sconces, and ornate antique-inspired vanity assert a old-world charm while the modern accessories add a fresh spin.

4. Geometric Contrast and Style

If changing the color scheme of the powder room is not something you are interested in and want to add another dimension to the small space, then fill it with a bit of geo contrast. Hexagonal wall tiles or floor tiles filled with pattern bring something imaginative and exception to the powder room without altering the color palette. Geo style is projected to be much more popular in the next 12 months than it has been in the past year.
