10 Great Ideas For A Small Bathroom (Part I)

From changing the bathtub for a shower to mini furniture, mirrors with light included, and ideas to make it seem bigger: want a bathroom ten and make it happen.

1. A SMALL, NARROW, SLOPING BATHROOM

It all seems like complications in such a case, right? But every situation also has a solution. For the decoration of this small bathroom, white is chosen for the coverings but warmth is given by the wooden cabinet that supports the sink: an open structure that does not add visual weight. Take note of this trick when there is a window in front of the sink: the mirror in the corner or on the sidewall.

2. THE SMALLEST SINKS FOR MINI BATHROOMS

A washbasin for a small bathroom can be 40 cm in diameter and be installed in a piece of furniture that is slightly deeper or on a shelf with a depth of 30 cm and the washbasin protrudes. It is a solution in small and elongated bathrooms. There are models with even less depth for very small bathrooms, better for toilets because they are more uncomfortable to use.

3. IN SEARCH OF UNITY WITH MATERIALS

Pinterest

Microcement, as well as other materials that allow you to create continuous surfaces, gives a lot of play when thinking about the decoration of a small bathroom. Together (and therefore “stripes” that visually fill) are eliminated and unity is created between different elements such as the countertop, walls, and floor.

4. WHEN THE BATHROOM IS SLOPING

The loss of ceiling height in such a space always makes the bathroom seem smaller. But don’t discount that area when planning the layout. Depending on the minimum height you have, you can place the toilet or take advantage of the space for the shower outlet (as in this bathroom) or with a storage unit with doors.

5. THE SIZE OF THE BATHROOM INFLUENCES THE CHOICE OF FURNITURE

Pinterest

Always consider the size of the bathroom. The furniture and toilet that you choose must have the appropriate dimensions for space so that you do not see them as too big or too small.

6. THE RIGHT CHOICE: EFFICIENCY AND WATER SAVINGS

Pinterest

Always read the fine print of taps, toilets, shower trays, wall lights … Choose not only for design but also for efficiency and water savings. And, of course, look for quality materials. You will make the initial investment profitable.

7. PARTITION KEYS

The screens with black profiles are a trend. Here a design with a sliding door.

8. A COMFORTABLE OPENING SCREEN

Pinterest

In small bathrooms, the door of the screen shouldn’t subtract meters. Options: sliding, folding, or hinged (towards the interior of the shower).

9. THEY DELIMIT WITHOUT HIDING

Pinterest

When the screens are transparent, their task is to delimit the shower area and protect it from splashes and they do so without creating visual barriers. They also let the light spread.

10. IS IT POSSIBLE TO PUT A BATHTUB IN A SMALL BATHROOM?

Pinterest

Yes! The bathtubs are adapted to small bathrooms for those who do not give up a bath with foam.
