BATHROOM REMODELING DESIGN AND POPULAR WALL TREATMENTS

by Arizona Custom Home Builder on September 14, 2009


Popular Painting Design for Custom Bathrooms

As AZ custom home builders, we have noticed that powder rooms, custom bathrooms, and bathroom remodeling design  projects have been receiving many special decorating touches and unique painting design.  Because powder rooms are small rooms in a home, a wide variety of more exotic, expensive, and creative decorative touches can be successfully accomplished in these rooms.  Plumbing fixtures may be unique coming from the wall rather than the counter; accent lighting might be a bit more extravagant, decorative mirrors may be elaborately framed.  Powder room sinks have transitioned from a pedestal sink to standalone glass or stone bowl.  These glass or stone sinks bowls may sit on the counter rather than built-in under the counter.  Antique dressers and chest of drawers have been transformed into bathroom vanities.  Other decorative touches include a variety of wall finishes including dark paint colors, faux finishes, gold-leaf finishes, and tiled wall accents. 

Exotic wall treatments and painting designs have become popular in powder rooms and custom bathrooms due in part, because these rooms are small.  Bathroom remodeling design projects have recently incorporated walls with dark, or very bold color.  These actually work well in small bathrooms, such dark colors might overpower and totally dominate a larger living area.  Rich reds and shades of burgundy work well in small bathrooms and powder rooms.  Painting powder room walls with gold leaf, can be quite expensive, but offers a most stunning accent in these spaces. Faux finishing powder room walls is also popular, faux finishes can be performed in a variety colors to fit with any architectural style.  Wainscoting a wall in tile, or just filling one wall with tile accents is another decorative option for small bathrooms or powder room walls. 

Included here are photos of powder rooms  and bathrooms with various wall finishes.  Highlighted is a powder room with a furniture style sink placed in its own alcove.  The alcove is completely tiled with small natural stone tiles, square-cut and diamond shaped.  The square cut pieces were an extension of those used on the floor.  The neutral vanity sink and the dark wood and gold mirror complement the natural stone tiles accenting the wall.  In another photo, the small bathroom includes both paint and tile finishes.  The dark faux finish wall in rich terra cotta and wainscoting of the tile pulls the look together for a rich Tuscan style.  Other popular custom bathroom  features with our custom homebuyers include the furniture vanity, stone bowl sink, framed mirror, walled plumbing fixtures, and the small overhead chandelier.  The final photo highlights the tile vanity.  Designed to hold this stone bowl sink, the vanity was accented in tile and extended up the wall for the walled plumbing fixtures.  

As AZ custom home builders, we often incoporate a combination of these features in custom bathrooms, powder rooms, and small bathrooms, though any bathroom remodeling design can also incorporate these painting design, tile, lighting, or plumbing fixture features.  For more information on popular bathroom features, visit us at Woodridge Custom Builders LLC.
