How to Make the Most of a Small Bathroom

In almost any home there is likely to be one room that you wish was slightly larger but unfortunately can do very little about. If this is the case, it is then down to how you go about making the most of the smaller space and ensuring it is as functional as you need it to be. Detailed below are a few ideas we here at Serene Bathrooms have put together to help make sure you make the most of your bathroom space, even if it is a little on the small side;

Be Clever with Lighting

A small bathroom is likely to result in a small window, which means the amount of natural light getting into the room won’t be as high as you may hope. This therefore means you need to be clever with your lighting to make the room seem bright and airy, which can be achieved by replacing the central light fitting with a number of spot lights that spread the light around and develop a more natural effect.

Consider Your Storage Needs

As with any room, you will of course have storage needs, yet in a small bathroom you will need to think very carefully about the furniture you introduce. One of the most effective ways of ensuring the level of storage you require is present within the room is by going for built-in units as they can easily hideaway the clutter which would otherwise clog your space without taking up too much space themselves.

Create a Focal Point

An easy way to take away from the fact you are in a small room is to create a focal point that grabs your attention the moment you enter. Within a bathroom there are a number of pieces that can be used to achieve this, ranging from a stunning bath or frameless shower unit right down to small eye catching extras including a mirror with the wow-factor or an extra large showerhead! Just because you have a small bathroom doesn’t mean you can’t make the most of the space by utilising a few clever design ideas, so get to work on revamping your bathroom today to discover how the tips we’ve listed above will make a real difference to your home!
