So, you are looking for a way to revitalize your home by adding or changing its current look. The problem is that you are not sure where to start from and how to do it. We suggest starting from the room where you spend most of your time relaxing – the bathroom.
And if you have a compact and stuffy one, then you need some interesting ideas on how to make it seem larger and classier. In order to help you turn your old boring bathroom into a fancy modern one, here is a list of suggestions you can try out.
Paint jobs
Getting a paint job for your bathroom is one of the simplest and most affordable ways to redecorate. When it comes to the colour choices, the options are endless. Monochromatic bathrooms are an absolute hit this season, but keep in mind that this doesn’t necessarily mean that you should paint it in a dull white colour. For the best colour choices, we recommend exploring Pantone’s colour predictions. For keeping the bathroom safe from mould and water damage, it is best to use acrylic paint. A paint job can really make the walls seem bigger and tie the entire room together.
A sink in the corner
When you have a compact bathroom, even the smallest thing like a sink can be a huge obstacle. Therefore, it is recommended to install it in the corner of your bathroom just across the toilet ‒ because placing it in front of the shower can still create some difficulties if the bathroom is too small.
Get rid of the shower door
If you own a small-sized bathroom, and the only things that you can fit inside are a small shower, a toilet, a small sink, and some cupboards, then you should absolutely consider getting rid of your shower door. This way, you will have enough space to move your arms freely if you need to get something from the cupboards without hitting your elbows on the door of the shower constantly. And if you are worried about all the water spilling around, you can solve this by buying a colourful shower curtain, or by installing a glass panel if you want it to look more sophisticated.
Use mirrors
If you want to create the illusion of having a lot of space, make sure to check out wide mirrors for your bathroom. If you have installed a countertop that stretches from one side of a wall to another, then placing a mirror here would add the final touch to the whole arrangement.
Mount your faucets on the wall
Last but not least, here we have a practical solution for freeing up additional square footage in your bathroom. Installing faucets directly on the wall will allow you to explore smaller and more elegant sink designs. If you already have installed this type of faucet, we recommend looking into various design ideas for you countertops.
Showers or bathtubs
People are constantly in a dilemma because they can’t decide which is better ‒ investing in a bathtub or a shower. If you really want to make your small bathroom seem a little bit larger than it really is, then you should try installing an open shower which will add a bit of elegance to the bathroom. On the other hand, buying a bathtub means that you want to go for a more relaxed and comfortable bathing experience. If you want to check out the best compact bathroom design ideas, we strongly recommend consulting with experts from Acqua Bathrooms.
As we can see, it is fairly simple to turn a small, cramped bathroom into a chic more spacious one. All it takes is a bit of imagination and ingenuity.
