Small and Elegant Powder Room Design
Stephanie Marsh Fillbrant of Marsh & Clark Design studio has designed this small and elegant powder room. In spite of the size it become an airy and artful space full of extraordinary craftsmanship. The classic composition of the room is anchored by an exquisite marble and limestone mosaic that unfurls up the subtly reflective, pale-blue Venetian plaster walls. This thoroughly modern take on an ancient art form is accented by a cantilevered vanity, which subtly suggests the trabeated forms of Ancient Greek post and lintel architecture. There is also an another local craftsman work in the room – a stunning portrait window. It marries classic stained-glass fabrication techniques with a modern design. Afternoon sunlight make this powder room unforgettable.
p.s. There is also an another work of the studio that worth a mention – a beautiful triplets room design.
