Those who have a
small bathroom know how hard it can be to find the proper décor. Unlike some
other rooms, which can be quite plain, bathroom requires a lot of hardware and
accessories. Similarly to kitchen, there are numerous objects that you have to
place inside in order to make it functional. Because of this, you interior
design may suffer.
Luckily for you,
there are some tricks which can be used in order to improve layout and looks of
this room. They will help you maximize your space making the small bathroom look big.
1.
Do the proper planning
Measuring everything in advance is the key when decorating your
bathroom. You will have to adjust all your items according to available space.
In comparison to a big bathroom, where you are allowed certain luxuries and are
able to go over the top, you have to put everything in a proper place when it
comes to its tinny counterpart. Furthermore, make sure that all the items are
proportionately smaller. If you are planning to get hardware for an average
bathroom, you will be in a lot of trouble. Best way to go is by measuring
dimensions of each and every item that you wish to incorporate. Then, make
outlines with a chalk and see how it looks like. Trust me; it is much better to
scrub a little chalk than to make a bathroom which you cannot use.
2.
Use the colors to your advantage
You have to know a lot about colors in order to find the ideal ones.
You may try certain combinations that look great on paper just to find that
they are completely useless. When it comes to small bathrooms, one thing to
note is that dark colors do not help. They make space feel more confined than
it actually is. Instead, you should opt for lighter colors. Also, it is much
better to use jovial patterns for tiles. Have in mind that décor doesn’t
strictly revolve around patterns and colors; it is a general feeling that we
get when we enter a room. By creating a relaxed, casual atmosphere, one that
will dazzle guests, it is possible to improve person’s experience distracting
him from the confined space.
3.
Use a lot of wood
If you listened to our advice and chose the proper tiles, it is time
to decide on the other pieces. Wood is an ideal material for a small bathroom.
As we said, when it comes to a confined space, there is only so much you can do
with objects and colors. However, it is possible to change the overall theme
making the room feel cozy. Most people associate wood to nature and relaxation.
When using this building material, you are making sure that your guests will
have a nice experience. Design is oftentimes subconscious. While one part of
your brain will feel the limited space, the other part will be relaxed due to
your design choice.
4.
Find creative solutions
People usually view rooms in terms of their eyesight. Space which is
out of sight is oftentimes perceived as non-existent. Although this is really
absurd, it is simply the way our brain works.
When decorating a tinny bathroom, you will have to consider all the
available space such as the ceiling, the corners of the room as well as the
upper parts of the wall. Each one of these can serve some purpose and may
provide some additional room for your accessories. Now, this doesn’t mean that
you should have towels hanging from the ceiling. It means that you are able to
use one of these areas and place some additional objects there. For example,
instead of using a wide cupboard, why don’t you use a tall one that will go all
the way up? Use your door to hang the towels. If you have some cleaning
products, place them in the corner, out of your guest’s sight.
As you can see,
there are numerous things which you can do with your bathroom, regardless of
space limitations. Interior design doesn’t only revolve around cute themes and
nice colors. Its main purpose is to make a person feel good within a certain
space. With our tips, you will be able to accomplish just that.
