apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Small & Pretty Powder Room by Marsh & Clark

Featured in May's San Francisco Decorator Showcase house, this powder room is a little gem. Attention to design and craftsmanship is lavished upon every last detail. It all started with the floor...

Says designer Stephanie Marsh Fillbrandt: "I started with the floor design. I knew I wanted the mosaic to curve up onto the base board then creep up the wall to create visual interest in the room—to lead the eye upwards to the window then ceiling, in order to really experience the room’s height.”

We love the relationship between the floor and window, the soft blue Venetian plaster walls, and the slim cantilevered vanity made to fit the equally slim room. See more of the artful room at Home Workshop.

Does anyone know who makes that sink? It's perfect for a bathroom reno I'm planning.

The large mirror is lovely. It ties in well with the curves of the floor and window.

Absolutely stunning. I love that the details are reminiscent of an octopus.

Too too charming for words. Something that small could easily become a hot mess, but this is so pared down and lovely.

Wow, I love this!! It tempts me to try a DIY... which would inevitably not turn out as well. I love swirls, though. Maybe I can think of a safer way to bring some of this feel into my tiny powder room.

I love it! I can only imagine you can't wash your hands with gusto or the water would go everywhere.
