SPACIOUS TIPS FOR SMALL BATHROOMS:

Even baths with minimal measurements can offer full-scale convenience.  The bathroom pictured to the right uses full height, edge to edge mirrors to visually expand the space & bounce light around resulting in a room that belies it's diminutive footprint.  Here are some other ideas Sea Pointe designers use to help you solve space issues:


Replace a bulky vanity with a sleek pedestal sink.  To make up for lost countertop space, add a narrow ledge to the wall behind the sink.


Investigate tub options.  Choosing a nonstandard size or shape may allow more efficient use of floor space.  Check out corner tubs, old-fashioned freestanding units, small-but-deep soaking tubs, & models specifically scaled for small spaces.


Improve efficiency with special cabinetry fittings: pull-out laundry hampers, tilt-out waste cans, drawer organizers for cosmetics & toiletries, & appliance garages for hair dryers, curling irons, etc..


Be creative with shelving.  Stack a corner with out-of-the-way wedge-shaped glass shelves.  Stow rolled towels in a wall-mounted wine rack. Build a labyrinth of recessed cubbyholes in spaces between the wall studs.


Use pocket doors instead of hinged doors, so there's no need to make room for swing clearance.


Make a small space feel larger with mirrors, shiny metals, & glass.  Reflective materials create the illusion of more space.  Glass lets the eye see through a solid surface.


Consider sneaking a few extra feet into your bath by annexing space from an adjoining closet, hall, or room. Look at bump-out possibilities.  Can you push out a wall to gain extra square footage?
