In the past, people lived with smaller bathrooms than we do today. They were usually only about 5’ by 8’. Today, people are finding that a larger bathroom can be extremely helpful on a day to day basis. If you have a small bathroom and are considering a renovation, there are some things that you can do to make your bathroom feel larger as you make design decisions for the space. MB Construction is here to share some of our best tips to help you get the most out of your bathroom renovation if space is an issue.
What Kind of Vanity Should I Use in a Small Bathroom?
The vanity in a smaller bathroom can be a big deal. You want to make sure you’re choosing the right one. If you need to have some storage in your vanity, a floating vanity can be a great option that will still help the space to feel bigger while giving you that storage you need. When there is space underneath the vanity, the flooring is able to extend from wall to wall. This is going to give you the illusion that the bathroom is actually larger. If you have plenty of storage, you may want to consider a pedestal sink in your smaller bathroom. This minimalist vanity will certainly help open up the space and make it feel larger. You may be surprised to see the dramatic difference the right vanity can make in your bathroom renovation.
Best Paint Color to Make a Small Bathroom Look Bigger
Sometimes a pop of color can be a fun way to add design to a space. When you’re dealing with a smaller bathroom though, you may want to stick to neutrals. You can help a small bathroom feel much larger when you stick to a monochromatic paint scheme. It can also give you a spa-like feel in your bathroom.
Can You Put a Large Mirror in a Small Bathroom?
Mirrors do a fantastic job of making a space feel larger than it actually is. You can choose a mirror that goes from wall to wall to give your small bathroom the illusion that there is more space than there actually is. You can also have a mirror that has built in storage in it as well to help on that front.
In a Small Bathroom, What Do You Put on Walls?
If you don’t have room for a full linen closet but are in need of more storage, you can take advantage of the shelves that can be constructed into the wall space. This may be just enough to help fix that problem.
Can You Fit a Tub & Shower in a Small Bathroom?
Many people will ditch the tub and shower combo when space is an issue in their bathroom. You can have a larger shower instead that has a glass surround to take advantage of any light in the room. The glass enclosure will help open up the space.
