Selecting Fittings for Small Bathrooms

For many people, the location of their home is a prime purchasing factor and often overrides other concerns over space.

Fittings for Small Bathrooms

In spite of the trend towards larger bathrooms, the challenge for many people is how to effectively decorate smaller and often tiny bathrooms.

Yes, it has been said many times before, but at BathEmpire we agree: why should smaller areas cause you to compromise on style?

Therefore, read this handy guide on selecting fittings for small bathrooms.

Mirrors Open Up the Room

Firstly, the limited space provides easily definable parameters of what will fit in the bathroom. You can attempt to make the most of any light sources in the room.

If a window is available, position bathroom mirrors to capitalise on the light and make the room seem more spacious. It is better to use stainless steel mirror cabinets to increase bathroom storage space, and these corner bathroom cabinets can be equally effective.

Shower enclosures are typically suited to smaller developments, as they have the ability to make use of otherwise awkward spaces. Places surrounding the boiler do not just need to be used for bathroom storage – install a pivot shower enclosure instead.

Another way to gain the most from the space is to install a shower bath. This will allow you to benefit from the best of both words in a single space.

For rural buildings, to maintain a relationship with the character of the property, add some traditionally inspired pieces to reinforce a vintage feel, such as these Windsor suites.

Once you have installed these bathroom fittings, then the addition of contemporary furniture will not harm the overall atmosphere of the bathroom.

Minimalism Creates Space

A minimalist ethos always benefits smaller bathrooms, as they will look less busy and free of unnecessary trinkets, maximising the space. The addition of sleek, light coloured bathroom furniture, such as units from the Newlands gloss white bathroom furniture range will complete the look.

Consider a variety of bathroom accessories to personalise the final bathroom design. Be sure to check out the best selling items suited to smaller bathrooms at BathEmpire.
