Anyone who has lived in a standard apartment building is used to having a small bathroom. Narrow space, often unintuitively laid water pipes and difficulty in getting comfortable while using the facilities are just some of the problems we may face. New designs for single-family homes, especially the smaller ones, also offer undersized space for the bathroom. We have good news: a successful arrangement of a small bathroom is possible. However, we need to think it over carefully and choose products that will make it stylish and functional at the same time!

A small bathroom – do it smart!

Before we start looking for bathroom furniture and appliances, it is worth carefully analyzing the design of the room and all its features. This will allow us to create a logical and clear renovation plan that will not require later adjustments.

The most important thing is to think about space, convenience of daily use and ease of cleaning. Furniture and wall-mounted sanitaryware will make it easier for us to do everyday things, such as mopping the floor. In a small space, maximizing the use of wall space is key to accommodate a shower or bathtub, sink with cabinet, toilet seat, as well as storage for a washing machine, dirty linen basket or other necessary accessories.

What do you need to furnish a small bathroom?

Proper planning of all elements of the room and step by step implementation of the resolutions will make the arrangement extremely easy, pleasant and, above all, effective. Here are noteworthy aspects:

  • minimization of furniture and accessories,
  • use of bright colors,
  • appropriate lighting,
  • placement of a large mirror,
  • use of large tiles,
  • orderly organization of space.

In decorating a small bathroom space, we will certainly have to make compromises. Also, not every element may fit our idea and the style in which we want to decorate it. However, it is worth keeping comfort in mind and focusing on making our small bathroom space functional.

The key question: bathtub or shower?

A shower cabin is always a good solution. It works great in both large and smaller spaces. In case of a small bathroom — it is certainly a much easier option, which will save important space. The abundance of different variants, sizes, shapes or ways to open the cabins in the Sanplast offer, gives us endless design possibilities. Thanks to them, finding a model for any space — even the smallest — is easy. Among the available options are square, rectangular, semicircular, pentagonal cabins, versions complete with shower tray and shower set, as well as walk-in type. The latter are an increasingly popular solution that fits any size bathroom and any design style. The absence of a door and the possibility of creating a thresholdless entrance are unquestionable advantages of this solution.

The belief that only a shower can be installed in a small bathroom is a MYTH! In Sanplast's offer you will find compact asymmetrical or rectangular bathtub models that will fit perfectly into the design. Mineral bathtubs Fuerta Mineral and Natur Mineral with dimensions as small as 70x160 cm or complete bathtubs of monoblock type of Luxo series 75x160 cm are just some of the available proposals. The most popular models for the bathroom are, of course, rectangular bathtubs. They are adjustable, look modern, and can be easily built-in. In rectangular rooms, the bathtub can be placed against a shorter wall to make full use of the space. In a small bathroom, a freestanding bathtub will work great. Although until recently free-standing bathtubs were associated with large bathrooms in the traditional classical style or elegant glamour, the current design makes them wonderfully found in modern, often minimalist spaces.
