long narrow powder room wall covering help!

last year

I have a powder room space that's 3.5 x 9 ft. The entry door is on one end, and the toilet is on the back wall, so very much a long skinny room. So you walk in and look directly at the toilet on the back short wall. I sourced a small, beautiful white fluted floating vanity/sink, which will go on the right side long wall, with a wall mounted faucet, mirror and light. There is also a small window on that wall. Dark charcoal herringbone tiles on the floor.


I need help with wall covering. I like the idea of wall paper, but don't know if i should do an accent wall, or whole wall.. considering the size and shape of the room.

Also, im worried about water splash with the wall mounted faucet and little sink so would love to put tiles behind the sink.... but dont know where to stop considering it's on the long wall. .. whole wall?


My question is what can I do from a design perspective to make the room look wider and less like a tube! If an accent wall, which wall?... the back toilet wall, or one of the long side walls? Can I incorporate tiles behind the sink without going overboard.. or would you not worry about splash?.


ive attached an overhead sketch of the room and one of the long wall
