This restaurant is a part of the Clyde's restaurant group, so I'm not sure if it's technically a Clyde's. And certainly I have never seen a Clyde's like this - talk about grandiose! Set in back of a corporate park, this place had sprawling rooms in hunting lodge style. Some a bit cheese but quite a structure. So I had no idea what to expect for the restroom. But it was quite a nice surprise!
First there was an entry way. A beveled mirror complimented a sitting area which was a nice touch (though not entirely necessary). I'll get to the color in a minute.
Moving into the main section and apropos of the restaurant's size, there were plenty of stalls. Always a big plus in my book. The stalls had slotted wooden doors but the white painted brick (or blocks) added a modern touch. Behind the door was a sturdy purse hook (a must). Nothing special about the toilet.
The best part of the bathroom was the sink area. Welcomed natural light - a rarity in bathrooms -made it one of the brightest rooms in the restaurant. The green walls really worked to give a natural feel to the room along with the plants in the sink area and the wicker baskets for the paper towels (much nicer than wall-mounted paper towel holders) and trash. I was a big fan of the oval mirrors surrounded by sconces. The marble-like counters worked well even with the more rustic touches and while the industrial look of the sink stands might seem odd, I think they were just meant to be minimal and not get in the way. Overall, I was a big fan of this restroom.
Here's more on Tower Oaks Lodge. There are some pictures of the restaurant itself which might offer the big picture.
