What do you do when faced with a limited, rectangular shaped bathroom space?
You maximize it!
Learning to maximize your bathroom space makes a difference in terms of both aesthetics and functionality. To fully make the most of your given limited space here are useful tips that can help you:
Start by being aware of your floor measurements and how you would like to move around your bathroom space. If you have a small space and want a bathtub, choose a compact sized bathtub that fits in the space or go for those shower-tub combo to check off both functions.
Opt for wall-mounted shelves like shown in this bathroom or wall-mount cabinets to store bathroom necessities like bath towels, toiletries, as well as other bathroom essentials. Adding a large mirror to your wall helps reflect natural light and creates an illusion of more space like this bathroom example. If you want to have a separate room for showers, using a clear glass as for panels serves its function but at the same time maintains an illusion of open space.
Choose multifunctional and space-saving bathroom fixtures. We’re talking about compact toilets, corner sinks, and slim sized storage units. Multi-functional furniture such as a hamper that doubles as stool or a vanity table customized that serves as sink with its body as bottom storage proves to be convenient and function.
Consider using natural light. If your bathroom has windows, use the light from outside to help illuminate the room. Add a mirror opposite to create a wider feel and use recessed lighting instead of pendant ones to keep it to a minimum.
And last, keep it clutter-free. Maintaining a clutter-free bathroom, especially the sink and counter help the bathroom appear more spacious and functional. If you want to add a decor, keep it to a minimum and stick to a color scheme to exude an organized, well-put together feel.
