The Top 10 Powder Rooms of 2022
Get inspiration for moody color schemes, bold wallpaper and statement mirrors from these most-saved photos of the year
Powder rooms are usually places where designers and homeowners feel more comfortable taking a walk on the wild side with design choices. That’s because these bathrooms are typically small, intimate and often windowless, creating an opportunity to embrace details that might not fit in other more visible areas of the home. For inspiration, check out this countdown of the most-saved powder room photos uploaded to Houzz this year.
9. Country Calm

Black finishes on the faucets, hardware and mirror add a modern touch. Meanwhile, hand towels depicting a bird in flight wonderfully work with the wallpaper pattern to complete the space.

This Denver powder room by Meredith Parrish Design features a harmonious mix of textures and shapes. Marble hexagonal tiles pull attention to the rear wall, while grasscloth wallpaper on the sides begs to be touched. A circular mirror softens the straight lines, a floating vanity keeps things light and airy, and a blue paint color on the cabinets complements the brass details and other warm brown tones.
