5 Easy Ways to Make a Small Bathroom Feel Bigger

There’s no denying that making a small bathroom appear larger can be difficult, but it’s not impossible! There are numerous techniques that have been proven to work and to make your bathroom look and feel larger than it has ever before. Continue reading to get advice from our Bathroom experts on the changes you should think about making in your bathroom.

 

Use a Large Mirror

Using a large mirror is vital. Mirrors reflect light and can make a room seem much bigger than they are. If you don’t yet have a big mirror in the space, now is the time to change that. It’s one of the easiest and most effective things you can do to make the space seem larger.

Choose wall-hung furniture

Wall hung furniture instantly creates more floor space and gives the illusion of a larger room. This includes both vanity units and your toilet in the bathroom. Unlike back-to-wall toilets, wall-hung toilets expose a larger cleanable surface area because there is no pedestal, cistern, or exposed pipework to collect germs or dust.

Use clear glass for shower panels

The glass panels of the shower cubicle should be clear. Ideally, use very simple and minimalist shower panels as they will help the space look considerably larger. Clear glass panels are, of course, see-through, so they don’t break up the space as much.

Create shelves that are recessed into the walls

If you’re looking to create storage space without having shelves that take up valuable space in your bathroom, one good idea is to use recessed shelves. These are shelves that are built into the wall, allowing items to be placed in them. It makes a lot of sense in bathrooms with limited space.

Remove clutter

Everything should have a home. Smart storage is the easiest way to store all your everyday bathroom essentials to ensure the room doesn’t feel cramped and cluttered! Add wicker baskets and drawer tidies to your bathroom to be sure everything stays in place!
