The Modern Mediterranean Powder Room

The Modern Mediterranean Powder Room features floating vanity and vessel sink designed to resemble rustic poured concrete; wall mounted faucet in luxe steel finish adding crisp architectural counterpoint. Plaster look wallpaper, burnished steel pendant lights, wall mounted toilet, blackened brass mirror, custom wood ledge, porcelain floor tile designed to mimic terracotta.Created to feel both sculptural and serene, this Mediterranean-inspired powder room balances modern elements with materials that feel aged, tactile, and organic.

“This design echoes a Mediterranean travel moment,” Normandy Designer Ashley Noethe says. “When you’re there, everything is stone — volcanic rock, mountains, concrete —aged, worn, and full of history.” The introduction of mixed metals adds a refined industrial note, gently modernizing the space without disrupting its earthy, organic character.

At the core of the design is a floating vanity and vessel sink designed to resemble rustic poured concrete, reinforcing the room’s stone-forward narrative. That sensibility shows up in the plaster-look wallpaper, which softens the walls with subtle variation, and in the porcelain floor tile designed to mimic terracotta. Paired with a sleek wall-mounted toilet, the combination keeps the room visually light while also supporting accessible design principles.

A wall-mounted faucet in a luxe steel finish adds a crisp, architectural counterpoint. “I wanted everything to feel really clean and simple,” Ashley says. “The lines are sleek, and the texture does all the talking.”

An irregularly shaped mirror in blackened brass brings an unexpected softness, while burnished steel pendant lights add a stylistic and visual contrast. “They give the bathroom a current feeling by giving it a slight industrial edge,” Ashley says. “You can see movement in the metal, which adds more depth to the design.”

Organic elements further warm the space. A custom wood ledge, perfect for natural décor, introduces an olive-wood tone that contrasts gently with the surrounding neutrals. “The wood element was key,” Ashley notes. “Not only does it break up the stone and concrete, but it adds that Mediterranean warmth.”

The result is a powder room that is modern in function, timeless in spirit, and rich with texture at every turn.

The Color Revival Powder Room

The color revival powder room features a richly veined porcelain slab with integrated lighting and floating mirror, aspen green pedestal sink with titanium and black nickel hardware, and marble herringbone floor.Anchored by a dramatic porcelain feature wall, this elegant green powder room proves that small spaces are the perfect place for big design moments. “The idea for this powder room started with this stunning porcelain slab and built from there,” Normandy Designer Ashley Noethe says. “Green is having a revivalist moment, so I said if we’re going green, let’s go for it throughout the space.”

The porcelain, inspired by the veining and movement of real quartzite, immediately sets the tone. Its oversized scale and natural pattern create a sophisticated setting, with integrated lighting at the edge subtly illuminating the surface. The floating mirror — an approach used to minimize cutting into the delicate porcelain — keeps the material uninterrupted, structurally sound, and the star of the room

The confident use of color continues with an aspen green pedestal sink, a traditional silhouette combined with an unexpected hue. “The shape of the sink is fairly classic, but we wanted to mix styles and go bolder with color,” Ashley says. “The green toilet complements the sink while reinforcing the playful, revivalist spirit that’s currently reemerging in home design.”

Hardware finishes include titanium, which is a deep, moody tone that’s darker than chrome but softer than black, and black nickel which both add subtle contrast without distraction.

Underfoot, a marble herringbone floor provides a crisp counterpoint to the saturated green. “I like to say that the floor design points you towards the beautiful wall element,” Ashley says. The directional pattern of the tile indeed draws the eye toward the porcelain feature wall, reinforcing it as the visual anchor while breaking up the expanses of green with light and movement.

“For this powder room, we wanted to do something bold and fun but with a subtle sophistication. The finished product makes a strong impression but still has a soft beauty,” Ashley says. “When you commit fully to a standout material, it becomes the guiding light for the entire design.”
