Concrete in the Powder Room

Freshen it up with concrete

If you're still unsure of whether to take the concrete splash, many designers and architectural concrete contractors recommend trying it out in the powder room. Because you're working with a small space and it's not a room that you spend a lot of time in, it's a good test room. And if you plan to sell your house in the near future, you may have fears about a radical remodel. But the powder room is considered safe - it won't be a deal-breaker like a kitchen or master bathroom. And it's probable that your fears will be unfounded and it will end up being a strong selling point and encourage you or future owners to introduce concrete to other rooms.

The powder room is also a great room for a major transformation, one that will make your guests say wow. And once you enliven the powder room with a concrete sink, you'll have a room that stands out, one that is memorable. Architectural concrete specialists, like Wanda Ellerbeck of Grotto Designs, say that powder rooms are a popular choice for the initiation into decorative concrete. She says she's created concrete amenities for a lot of powder rooms.Often it begins as one item, like a sink or vanity. But before you know it, we tie it all together and its concrete-based, Ellerbeck says.
