Small yet Charming Powder Room Ideas to Wow Your Guests!

A powder room, (also known as a guest bathroom or a half bath), is basically a small room that houses just a sink and a toilet, usually dedicated for the house guests. Since you don’t have to worry about the moisture and humidity from a shower, the powder room is often the perfect opportunity for you to make a great visual impression for your guests with bold colours, textures, and accessories.

If you’re thinking of jazzing up your powder room, here we have gathered various powder room design ideas as an inspiration to turn your average space into a charming room for your guests to refresh when visiting.

This pretty powder room is a visual delight! Taking centre stage is the flower-patterned basin that creates a pleasing focal point in the room.
