Don't let a small bathroom limit your design dreams. With smart planning and clever solutions, you can create a beautiful, functional space that feels much larger than it is.

1. Choose the Right Color Palette

Light colors make spaces feel larger and more open. Consider white or light gray walls, soft neutral tones, and monochromatic color schemes with strategic use of accent colors.

2. Optimize Your Vanity

Wall-mounted vanities create visual space and make cleaning easier. Pedestal sinks offer minimal footprint for tiny bathrooms. Corner vanities maximize awkward spaces.

3. Use Large Format Tiles

Surprisingly, larger tiles make small spaces feel bigger by reducing grout lines. Consider 12x24" or larger tiles for floors and walls.

4. Install a Walk-In Shower

Replace a bulky tub with a frameless glass walk-in shower. Visual continuity makes the room feel larger, offers more flexible layout options, and provides a modern, sleek appearance.

5. Maximize Vertical Space

Think up, not out with tall narrow cabinets, shelving above the toilet, wall-mounted towel bars, and recessed medicine cabinets.

6. Add Mirrors Strategically

Mirrors reflect light and create the illusion of more space. Consider large wall-to-wall mirrors, mirrors extending to the ceiling, and placement opposite windows.

7. Improve Lighting

Good lighting makes small spaces feel larger with bright overhead lighting, task lighting around mirrors, and natural light from windows or skylights.

8. Create Recessed Storage

Built-in storage doesn't take up floor space. Use recessed medicine cabinets, in-wall shelving, and shower niches for toiletries.
