Make Small Bathrooms Look Bigger

Walnut Vanity by Ultimate Accents

As consumers, we’re always on the lookout for ways to get the most out of our money. Seeing as our homes are our largest expense, we should also strive to get the most out of them as well.

As we’ve covered in a number of ways before, we sincerely believe small spaces can be just as well-designed and comfortable as their larger counterparts.

Here are some ideas to make small bathrooms look larger:

Smaller Furnishings

Standard furniture is often too large for smaller spaces and can quickly make a room feel tight and cramped. Replace large vanities with smaller options like the Walnut Vanity by Ultimate Accents.

This vanity gives a bathroom an elegant upgrade with carved acanthus leaf detail, hand-polished black granite top, scroll legs and a decorative faux drawer.

Pedestal Sinks

While the vanity mentioned above is smaller than standard ones, its boxy frame can still make a room feel small because it’s visually heavy. For very small bathrooms or powder rooms, pedestal sinks are an ideal solution. Their slim profile allows the eye to practically see all around the basin, which goes a long way in making the room to appear to be larger than it actually is.

Pocket Doors

Anyone with a small bathroom can attest to the fact that traditional swinging-hinge doors can take up a ton of space and make the entryway feel confined. Installing pocket doors that slide into the a gap in the wall immediately opens up the space.
