• Smaller fixtures:Small fixtures are a tiny bathroom’s best friend. Choosing large, bulky fixtures will make it look smaller. Instead opt for tiny bathroom fixtures. Instead of choosing a sink with a vanity unit underneath, go in for a floating countertop with a vessel sink. A pedestal sink will look great too while maximising space. These days,showers systems and toilets are also available in all shapes and sizes.
• Glass shower enclosures:Do away with shower curtains and enclosed bathing chambers. The best way to create an illusion of bigger space in your small bathroom is by installing a glass shower enclosure. It creates a flow of light throughout the bathroom leading to more openness.
• Stock up on storage:Storage is unarguably one of the most important aspects in a bathroom. Do you want a place to store your bath products, cleaners and cosmetics, but are plagued by limitedspace? Don’t worry! Achieving utility and storage space in your small bathroom is easier than you think. Consider adding storage behind a mirror vanity. This will serve as a mirror cum storage space. You can also add a shelf or two above the toilet. Another way to achieve storage space is by incorporating a floating vanity with a pocket door.
• Towel holders behind the bathroom door:Putting a towel rack on the wall may result in someone walking into it. The best way to deal with this is by attaching towel racks behind the bathroom door. This way the bathroom looks bigger and uncluttered.
• Lighting:Getting the lighting right in a smaller space is vital. Avoid using suspended lights. This will further drop the ceiling and make it feel lower than it is. Wall mount and ceiling fixtures creates the impression of higher ceilings. Spot light fixtures over the vanity or ceiling will not only illuminate the whole bathroom area but also make it look bigger.
• Colours:Bold and dark colours with make the bathroom look enclosed. If you’re considering a complete bathroom revamp, choose neutral colours for the walls and ceiling. If you want to add a splash of colour, include bathroom plants and accessories.
