The guest powder room at Treviso Estate was designed as the one space in the house meant to be experienced alone. With no function competing for attention and nothing to arrange, we approached it as a single composed object, a room to be read, not only used.
The room is organized around one mass of burgundy marble. Basin and surround are worked from a single block so the stone holds its weight rather than serving as a veneer. Walnut paneling envelops the wall floor to ceiling, its continuous grain warming the space and reading as one uninterrupted plane.
The sculptural mirror is the room’s one gesture toward ornament, and it is enough.
The result is a small room of a few materials, each selected for how it ages and how it holds Pacific Northwest light.
