As a local remodeling company, we have worked with different clients seeking a bathroom remodel. Apart from their own personal preferences, one concern that stayed common was how to maximize space in a small bathroom.
In this blog, we will discuss some easy ways you can use existing space in your bathroom efficiently, and make it look bigger!
- Use Light Colors
Before we go onto some technical renovation ideas, using light colors on your walls, ceilings, and floor can make a small bathroom space appear larger. You can use light hues like white, light gray, pastels, and soft neutrals to make the space feel big and airy.You can play with accent colors in lighting, or fixtures to add contrast and life otherwise. - Install Wall-Mounted Fixtures
If you have a small bathroom space, it is important to use the floor space wisely. In order to avoid cramming, wall-mounted fixtures like floating sinks, or toilets can help save floor space – with an added benefit of easier cleaning. - Vertical Storage Solutions
In small bathrooms, we may not have much horizontal space to work with. However, utilizing vertical space to our advantage is key. You can think around accessories like tall cabinets, floating shelves, tall mirrors to fill in vertical space for storing your bathroom essentials.Pegs and hooks behind your bathroom door provide space for hanging towels, robes or other bath accessories without taking space in your cabinets. - Glass Shower Door
In place of a traditional shower curtain, that can make a small space look bulky and confined – install a glass shower door instead. Glass is not only sleek but provides an illusion to make the space look big. - Choose Compact and Sleek Fixtures
When it comes to remodeling a bathroom, choosing the right fixtures is crucial. Modern fixtures give us a wide variety to choose from compact and space-saving models including toilets, sinks and even bathtubs. - Use Smart Lighting
Lighting can play an important role in creating an illusion of open spaces. Hence using bright, energy-efficient lighting can maximize the sense of space as opposed to a poorly lit bathroom.As a bathroom remodeler in Cypress, TX, we recommend our clients recessed lighting, LED strips, under cabinet lighting, or adding a small window for natural light. - Minimalism Is The New Cool
Working with small bathrooms can be tricky given the less space to add details. Always, remember, less is more when it comes to decorating small spaces. That means, keep the decor, accessories, fixtures, furniture minimal yet stylish to avoid any shoddy feels. - Use Corner Spaces
In order to strategically increase space in small bathrooms, using corner space is a plus. Place cabinets or open shelves to utilize this area which often goes unnoticed.
