Yes, the term powder room still feels foreign to most Indonesians. Then, what exactly is a powder room and what does it do in the house? Come on, understand more through our review below!



Understanding Powder Room


Powder room is a small dry toilet room in the house specially made for visiting guests. In the powder room, there is usually a sink, a sitting closet, and a mirror to make up yourself. So, for those of you who thought that a powder room is a room for makeup, it's actually almost right. It's just that, usually this room doesn't use a dressing table, but only a sink table.


Presenting a powder room in a residence actually aims to make it easier for guests when they want to go to the restroom and at the same time maintain the privacy of the residents of the house because guests don't need to enter the private bathroom. Therefore, usually the location of the powder room is around the living room area.


Even though this toilet room is not for use by residents, you still have to keep the powder room clean so that guests don't feel disgusted when using it. Likewise with the interior design, try to design the best powder room possible so that the guest experience when visiting your house is more memorable. Well, below, we've prepared some powder room design inspiration that you can imitate. Come on, just take a peek together!
