Christopher House and Garden

Rather than settle on the Ikea vanity neither of us liked, we hit antique stores and immediately stumbled upon this. It’s solid oak, needs new knobs and a paint job, and will fit perfectly. We’ll remove the curvy mirror thing on top, and will replace the top surface. Using a vanity instead of a pedestal will allow us to do some creative plumbing (since it will be hidden inside the vanity) so we can shift the sink toward the door away from the toilet, which should make the small space seem less cramped. We’ll see.

Having a small bathroom doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style, the Big Bathroom Shop has plenty of solutions for a small space.

Choosing a sleek and compact bathroom suite, where the pipes can be hidden from view can make a huge difference. Many items of pottery are now designed to be placed in the corner of the bathroom, such as a corner sink or a corner fitting toilet, which are ideal for a small bathroom and will allow for the optimum use of space. Also another space saving idea is choosing a shower bath, so you still have the option of bathing or showering. If you wish to just have a shower enclosure there are many options available – corner or pentangle enclosures are a perfect fit for a small bathroom, also bi-fold or in-slide doors will allow access without causing any obstruction.

Once you have chosen your compact bathroom suite, you may also want to think about your choice of colour carefully, as this can have a big impact on the feeling of space within the bathroom. Natural light may be limited so you could use lighter tones and colours that will give an improved appearance of space. Choosing blinds instead of curtains will increase the light in the room and will still maintain your privacy. When it comes to artificial lighting spotlights will brighten up the whole room without adding any clutter and will look modern. Down lights also look stylish and will give your bathroom a personal touch. The use of mirrors can give the illusion of making the bathroom appear larger by reflecting any natural light.

Ornate fixtures will look good in a showroom but they are best avoided in a small bathroom, as they can make the room appear cluttered. Using sleek, modern brassware will create clean, crisp lines and will give a spacious feel.
