17 Jan Can You Make Your Small Bathroom Look Bigger?

Minimalism is the way to go in small bathrooms. Acas have fitted customers bathrooms Tyneside based and maximised space. Maintain as much simplicity as possible while focusing on the genuine needs of your bathroom. Get rid of anything that is not necessary and declutter the room. Without any unnecessary stuff, your small bathroom will naturally look bigger.

When it comes to buying and renovating homes, having more space is usually a major concern for homeowners. Not everyone is fortunate enough to live in a house with plenty of space. So, how can you make your small bathroom look bigger than it actually is? In this blog, we will share some tips for adding or creating the illusion of more space in your bathroom.

Keep it minimal.

Get wall-mounted fixtures and fittings.

When it comes to bathrooms, having floor-mounted or freestanding fixtures and fittings take up a lot of space. However, several bathroom features such as the toilet and basin and accessories such as towel racks, toilet roll holders, and toilet brushes are now available in wall-mounted configurations. Raising everything off the bathroom floor not only creates more space but also spreads your floor outwards and makes it look bigger.

Go compact.

You might also consider downsizing your bathroom features and getting something specially designed to accommodate smaller bathrooms. Cloakroom basins, for example, are typically smaller when compared to standard basins. Compact toilets are also available in various styles, including wall-hung and back-to-wall, allowing for design and installation flexibility.

Make the mirror the focal point.

Make your bathroom mirror a centrepiece of the room by using it as a window. Positioning your mirror so that it reflects light from windows will help fill your bathroom with natural light and make the room feel less cramped.

Choose shower over bathtub.

When we picture modern luxury, we picture a soothing bath with candles, a nice book, good music, and perhaps a glass of red wine. However, a bathtub takes up a significant amount of space — in small bathrooms, this could be as much as one-third of the entire floor area. Replacing the bathtub with a shower enclosure is an easy way to add more space to your bathroom. Consider a walk-in shower if you only need a shower in your bathroom. Because they are designed for improved accessibility, they can come in handy when it comes to making it look bigger.

Add more light.

If your bathroom does not get much natural light — or if it does not have any windows — then add extra lighting to the space. This does not have to be extra wall or ceiling lights, but investing in something like an LED bathroom mirror can dramatically improve the room’s ambience and, of course, make it look bigger.

These are just a few ideas for making your bathroom look bigger. While each bathroom has its own set of challenges, you can significantly improve your bathroom space with a few minor tweaks.
