12. High-Contrast Black and White Drama

12

You can never go wrong with a classic black-and-white color scheme, but in a powder room, you can push the contrast to its absolute limit. Paint the walls a rich, matte black and pair them with stark white crown molding, trim, and a classic white pedestal sink. To add visual interest, lay down a striking black-and-white checkerboard tile floor or a complex geometric mosaic. This timeless look is incredibly versatile; you can easily change the entire mood of the room just by swapping out your hand towels and accessories for a bright pop of color like red, yellow, or cobalt blue.
