Strong exciting colors makes your bathroom look very timid. Soft colors give the illusion of more space. ‘Cool’ colors give the serenity. Blue, violet and green are cool colors. These colors give a calm tone to your bathroom and make it look more comfortable. Color is the most important tool in designing. So you should pay extra attention to the color aspect.

Placing mirrors is a better way to light up your bathroom and make it look wider. Mirrors placed on the walls reflect the light. Placing the mirror over the sink is a common practice. You can also place a large mirror on the wall to enhance the light. The total effect created by this mirror makes your small bathroom look like an opera house.

 

Use bright accessories for bathroom. Be it a towel, or a soap box, select only bright color. You can select neutral colors or white backgrounds. It’s very important to add more light to you bath room to make it visually spacious. If you are ready to spend, you can buy some sky lights, solatubes or larger windows for your small bathroom. The bathroom light system should not be oversized equipment. You should carefully choose subtle light equipment instead. In short, bathroom lighting should provide bonus points to the brilliant touches you made in the bathroom. 

 

Most of small bathrooms have a shower stall instead of a full bathtub. Avoid using your old frosted door and place some transparent glass shower stalls. Shower doors make timid spaces look instantly larger by enabling visitors to see beyond the doors to the space behind them.

A vanity cabinet steals a lot of space in your bathroom. Instead of using it, you can remove it and bring pedestal or wall mounted sink which is inexpensive too. Although you need to be very careful while taking out your vanity cabinet as otherwise you may have to repair the entire flooring.

 

The best way to make a space appear bigger is to remove unnecessary objects from there. We have this habit of putting toothpaste, brushes, lotions, shampoos and even mobile phone and books. These items takes too much of space in your bathroom and make it look like a fancy dress rehearsal room. So it’s important to get rid of them. The de cluttering process will give your small bathroom a spacious look.
