The bathroom in the house is a special place. How nice to relax in the jacuzzi, and after a portion of the bubbles lie down on the couch. But for many, luxurious apartments for taking water procedures will remain a dream - in city apartments, as a rule, the bathroom is small. What to do? It's definitely not worth it to grieve over the lack of meters. It is better to focus on making your small bathroom beautiful and as comfortable as possible.
Global changes
If possible, you can combine the toilet and bathroom by removing the partition. Thus, you will get a little more desired space. You can replace the standard bath with a modern shower. This will allow you not only to win additional meters, but also save money on subsequent water bills. And hydromassage will be another nice bonus.
If you don't want to tear down the walls, and a stall is not an option for those who like to splash, use some tricks that will make a small bathroom look larger, at least visually.
Light and color
It is known that light colorsreflect light and are able to "push" the space. Light paint or tiles, and it is better to choose large tiles, will visually enlarge the room. Good airy, smoky, matte shades. The effect will be enhanced if the floor is light, and the doors and cabinets are matched to match, or their color is slightly lighter (darker) than the walls. Tiles on the floor, laid out diagonally, are another secret to visually increasing the space. So that a small, monochromatic bathroom does not look boring, diversify it with bright stylish accessories. And remember: the more light in the room, the larger it seems. Several additional light sources above the washbasin, near the mirror or above the bathroom itself will visually enlarge the room. It is important that the fixtures match the overall style.
Mirror and glass surfaces will help to use the properties of light even more effectively. A large mirror, as you know, is able to "push" any wall. And if you hang mirrors opposite each other, you can even get the illusion of infinite space. Use, as an option, several narrow mirrors in one row. The best place is above the bathtub or sink.
Compact furniture
Use small plumbing fixtures and the right furniture, the choice is now huge. Corner sink, built-in cabinets of individual sizes, L-shaped rack - a great solution if you have a small bathroom. For useful little things, build an open shelf by placingit is almost under the ceiling, so as not to “eat up” the right space. It is better if the furniture and sanitary ware are from the same collection - this will bring additional harmony.
The room should be in order, especially if it is a small bathroom. The design and placement of furniture can be thought out to the smallest detail, but scattered shampoos, combs and crumpled towels will spoil the whole look and nullify all your efforts. Leave the necessary minimum in sight, everything else is better to remove.
As you can see, there are many ways to make the bathroom a place where you can wash your face and relax in comfort. Due attention and love to your home will help to hide its shortcomings and emphasize its merits.
