Adding Space To Your Bathroom

Small bathrooms can be a dreadful thing, but seldom are we left with a choice to make it look bigger than what it already is. When bedrooms and drawing rooms are in themselves small, much less space can be expected for the bathroom. They may seem like a difficult design task to take on; however, these spaces may introduce a clever design challenge to add to your plate. Creating a functional and storage-friendly washroom may be just what your home needs. Every design element, even the smallest ones, should have a purpose and be functional in some way or another to create a space-saving sanctuary.

One of the wisest choices to add space is to add storage. Instead of stuffing them in large cabinets, showcase your colorful, textured towels in open shelving. This will add warmth and playful colors to your space and eliminate unwanted large furniture pieces. Functionality is the key for a small bathroom. Small rooms can easily leas to unwanted clutter, so make sure you are adding only design elements that are functional. Don’t add knick-knack objects that don’t serve a purpose. When it comes to painting, one has to make sure that one plans the color palette.  Keep in mind that painting a wall an accent color takes time. Use neutral colors to make your bathroom feel calm and aesthetically pleasing.

An alternative to painting is to add pos of secondary color by showcasing colorful hand towels, bathroom tiles, rugs or robes to create an individualistic ambience and flair. This can be done by hanging vibrant and bright colored towels or robes which would help to add color and personality to your bathroom. Make the shower stand at a higher level. Don’t even bother trying to move around under around a tiny shower head to rinse off. Swap it out for an overhead rain. Hanging two shower curtain panels instead of one (or cutting the one in half and cleaning up the edges with short trim) makes it easier to get in and out of the small space. Hanging a few sprigs of fresh herbs to the shower, like eucalyptus or rosemary, will release beneficial oils when it comes in contact with the steam – and just like that, you will have your own spa at home every day.

So, as we see, with just a few changes, even the most cramped and tiny bathrooms can become spacious, airy and luxurious.
