The most popular powder rooms on Houzz continue to be spaces in which designers have fun and go bold with colors, materials and patterns — often all at the same time. One way many of them accomplished this feat was by completely wrapping the walls, a trend we reported on earlier this year, in materials ranging from elegant emerald tile to colorful floral wallpaper.

8. Contemporary Beachy Style
Shades of aqua, teal and turquoise create a fresh coastal vibe throughout this North Carolina beach house designed by Gathered.

Graphic wallpaper features a design resembling abstract waves, adding to the ocean-inspired theme.

3. Neutral Coastal Chic
The inspiration for this powder room in Wilmington, North Carolina, started with the existing travertine floors that the homeowner wanted to keep. Mary Hannah Interiors went with a neutral, coastal-inspired theme.
The marble-top light wood vanity features custom brass leg caps that add height and interest. The textured mirror recalls the sea and warms up the cool gray walls. The leaning ladder towel rack adds another casual element to the room and prevents damp hanging towels from damaging the wallpaper.

1. Colorful Taste of the Tropics
We’ve seen a rise in powder rooms with completely wrapped walls, and this design by Kelly Rogers Interiors shows how playful that move can be.
The refined tropical aesthetic starts with wallpaper from Cole & Son, which also anchors the color palette. A jade green picked out from the paper covers the trim. Black-and-white hex tiles in a contemporary striped pattern pull from the black-and-white details of the birds. A cane mirror and woven wastebasket round out the vignette.
