Bathrooms today are not just for getting clean; they're also for entertaining. While small modern bathrooms might seem to limit your number of guests, you'll be surprised at just how many creative ideas you can come up with! With a small bathroom you can create a cozy atmosphere by choosing ornate fixtures, a classic soap dish, or a vase of flowers to sit on top of your basin. Or turn your small bathroom into an outdoor shower cubby-style, with a rain shower head and hand held showerheads, and enjoy the benefits of a real spa! Consider the stylish options that are available in today's small bathroom design.
Trick for Making Small Bathrooms Look Big
To make a small modern bathroom appear larger, select everything from the floor to the tops of your tallest bathroom walls carefully. Lighter tile colors look smaller because there are fewer grout lines to visually fill up a large area. These table-style vanity vanities are loaded with funky, cool metal accessories, including copper pottery and wood veneers, while understated, elegant bathroom cabinetry hidden deep within the walls hidescounter clutter. The flooring on these vanity units can be just one piece of tile, or several different types of tile, such as slate, ceramic, marble, or limestone. The tile doesn't have to be diamonds or glass; just select a complimentary color that coordinates well with your countertops, cabinets, and wall color.
Add a splash of natural elements to your small bathroom. Using natural elements makes the most of your limited space. One choice is to simply use one or two big tiles on top of a bold ceramic wall or tile backsplash. Another option is to create a mosaic tile mural on your walls, using numerous small tiles that mirror each other. You can even use a large ceramic tile as the backing for a small painted globe that sits on your countertop.
A small space doesn't have to mean you get a tiny toilet. One modern toilet that maximizes space is the bowl styled toilet, also known as the vessel sink. This bowl style toilet comes in a variety of sizes and materials, from vitreous China to stainless steel. However, the real beauty of this modern toilet is the small set of drawers at the bottom of the bowl. This is an area that are perfect for adding a washcloth holder and tissue box, as well as a couple of small soap dishes and brushes.
Add a Touch of Trendy Shower Storage
One other way to add a touch of trendy shower storage is with some floating vanity lighting fixtures. Floating vanity lights are designed to look like regular bathroom lighting fixtures, but the underside is clear so you can see through it like you would a clear glass shade. To make this even more attractive, add a few clear glass pieces on the sides of the light fixtures. These floating lights can be used as regular lighting fixtures, or they can be included as part of a larger contemporary fixture, such as a vanity mirror. Floating lights are especially useful for small spaces where you don't want to add permanent fixtures.
If you're not looking to create storage space, one option that you can explore is to install wall mounted sinks. These sinks can easily be installed on any size wall and as long as there is a flat surface to which the sink can be attached, it will provide all the utility you need. The great thing about wall-mounted sinks is that they look nice, they function well, and they offer functional storage and decorative qualities all in one.
Creating a Unique Modern Bathroom
If you are looking to add a little something unique to your bathroom, consider installing a small vanity mirror. These mirrors can be found in many different shapes and sizes, as well as styles. You can find them standing or mounted on walls, sitting on counter tops, or placed on a pedestal. Many people choose a round or oval shaped vanity mirror, because these are easier to see through while standing than the square or rectangular shaped ones. The added benefit of using a small mirror is that it will create a small space feeling, so that you can use this area for other important activities.
A small sink is a great choice for a small bathroom. Bathrooms with small sinks can often seem cramped, even when the tub is sitting on top of a counter top or vanity. However, when you add a small sink and mirror, you instantly create an illusion of space. And a vanity mirror is the perfect accessory to create this illusion of space!
