The powder room is the place to freshen up: to fix your hair; to check the ’fit. So why shouldn’t you go big with the mirror? (The fact that it can make a tiny room feel that much bigger is just a bonus.) Shannon Bradner of Vancouver’s HB Designs brought in a custom, oversized rounded mirror to anchor this Vancouver project, popping a floating wood vanity with Caesarstone countertop just below centre and installing the Watermark Brooklyn tap to protrude right out of the glass. The whole figure is backlit to give the room an enticing glow—otherworldly, in fact, when experienced in tandem with the quirky Mind the Gap wallpaper.

The Mind the Gap wallpaper print is called “Out of This World” and features a delightfully chaotic pattern of vintage sci-fi graphics. The millwork here is so dark brown, it’s almost black. On top, find a Caesarstone surface in Raven. There’s a sliver of mirror beneath the floating cabinet, creating the illusion that the piece is one big circle.
