The Gallery Powder Room by MNaeve
The gallery and formal powder room of the Kips Bay Dallas Show House were designed by Margaret Naeve Parker of MNaeve.
Dramatic Art Gallery Entrance To The Powder Room
For the gallery, Margaret Naeve Parker started with a center table from Black Creek Mercantile with a dramatic hanging fixture installation from Apparatus. This not only provides a dramatic entry but also separates the long gallery into two spaces.
The Art Gallery Artists
The art consists of Paul Lee, Amanda Martinez, and Jason Karolak – all from David Shelton Gallery. Margaret played with scale for the art, opting for a small, yet powerful piece on some of the larger walls in the gallery. The art as a whole is a good collection of materials, texture, and composition.
Custom Furniture For the Powder Room
For the gallery, even the furniture and lighting are a piece of art in their own way from the Green River project stool to the early 20th-century pieces. The neutral pallet created a very moody powder room. Visit Custom Furniture Ideas
Changed The Powder Room Toilet Location
For this space, Margaret changed the toilet’s location to allow for a full wall-to-wall integrated stone vanity and sink.
Dark Black Tile Handhoned Tiles with Oak Flooring w/ Gold Lighting
She partnered with Cle Tile for the walls to install a 4″x4″ black zellige tile. To complement the dark walls, she elected to install a wide-plank, white oak floor. Lighting was again from Apparatus Studio, and she complimented that with a vintage mirror sourced from Hollywood at Home in Los Angeles.
Removed a Utility Closet
There was an awkward utility closet within the existing powder room that did not work with the flow. Accordingly, Margaret elected to close off the space and create an inset plaster shelving installation that really finished the powder room. While both rooms could stand alone, there is a common thread that not only connects both spaces but reflects a beautiful powder room design aesthetic. Check out for Contemporary Home Decor Ideas
