The bathroom is hugely important to the comfort of your
home: just imagine living without a bathroom for a week and you will soon see
what I mean! Therefore, it is well worth the effort and expense to plan, design
and fit out a bathroom with the best possible products. After all, your
bathroom is going to be a high traffic, intensive-use space for years to come!


 

 
Fitting Furniture?

If your bathroom is particularly small and tending towards
cramped, then you can choose smaller than usual fittings and furniture for your
bathroom refit. These half-size items take up much less space but still allow
for a complete and comfortable bathroom experience. You just will not be able
to lie full length in the tub!


Shapely Bathroom!

Rather than simply transplanting your ideal bathroom from
your favorite magazine or website, make sure that you fit the elements of the
bathroom into the available space of your existing, empty bathroom, taking into
account any awkward corners and angles. By all means, allow yourself to be influenced
by outside sources, but taking the time to tweak and rework the layout until it
makes the best use of the available space will give your new bathroom a
professional looking finish and polish.


Wet Room Popularity

The wet room is a fairly new bathroom décor concept, and it
works best in very small bathrooms. Not only do you maximize every inch of
available space by stripping out internal divisions but you will be back on
trend for bathroom décor fashions! Do be prepared to invest in excellent
waterproofing and water tight storage units as the entire room will become
steamy when in use, which can lead to damp setting into poorly prepared
surfaces.


Go Up High!

Opt for a tall and narrow décor and furniture scheme to minimise
clutter and give you the maximum amount of storage while only using a
relatively small amount of floor space. Another idea is to perhaps eschew a
vanity in favor of a stand-alone pedestal basin. This will make your bathroom
appear better proportioned as the pedestal looks tall and slim compared to the
blocky squat profile of a vanity cabinet.


Reflect Large

Always install the largest mirror that you can find, afford
or fit to your bathroom wall! The larger the mirror, the greater the illusion
of depth and width, opening up the whole bathroom to pleasing proportions.


Store and Pack it!

Bathrooms always need plenty of storage, so make sure that
you include it from the very beginning stages. You will be pleasantly surprised
at how easily you will find hidden nooks and otherwise wasted spaces into which
you can fit a small cupboard, cabinet or shelf when you begin to include
storage from the design stage.

I hope you found something to spark your  creativity.  I just finished a compact bathroom remodel which will  make a great next post topic.
