Surely, many of us dream of a spacious bathroom, where you can splash in the shower and plenty and luxuriate in a separate antique bath on lion's legs.

But the reality is that in most homes the area of ​​these premises so necessary for each person hardly exceeds the size of a handkerchief.

Upset, right, not worth it: the modern market offers a lot of useful devices and elements like miniature bathtubs and compact showers that can improve the ergonomics and efficiency of the smallest space.

White color should probably be the main one in the palette of shades for tight spaces, but you do not have to completely abandon the bright decisions in your small bathroom. Quite the contrary.

Playing with shadow and light, richness of shades and contrast, you can form an individuality of the interior and breathe life into a space that has risked appearing almost sterile.

1. Buy a miniature bath

Some modern models of detached baths are so compact that one of them you can just squeeze into your interior.

It will be great if you can beat the non-standard form of the room and install a bath, for example, at the base of the ceiling vault. A compact space has its advantages. You can safely spend money on the purchase of luxury items and accessories without having to rob a bank.

2. Take up the angular space

Angular shower enclosures are the best solution for creating a comfortable layout of bathrooms that do not fit into the standard frames. Suspended furniture creates the illusion of volume, giving the opportunity to see the connection of the floor with the wall.

3. Choose a calm palette

Do not avoid color in a compact space.

Look at the photo: the bluish shade of the duck egg, used in the decoration of the ceiling, the floor and the cladding panels, takes our view deep into the landscape outside the window. And is not this the ideal color for a solitary relaxation in a warm bath?

4. Make the interior white and sparkling

You will not be mistaken if you lay out the walls of your little bath with white tiles "bricks". With a gray trowel, this classic decor looks particularly impressive. The rest of the interior should be simple and no frills.

5. Beat the non-standard volume

This space seems so inconvenient and promising, but its owners could benefit from the narrow form and the presence of a sloping ceiling, creating a unique, elegant image.

The attic window fills the room with natural light, and almost invisible glass shelves and hanging shells structure the interior and maintain a visual balance in it.

6. Experiment with dark shades

White is a classic, and you can instinctively avoid the gloomy tones in the bathroom design. But look how warm and enveloping this interior seems due to the decor of a deep gray hue. Soft lighting creates the atmosphere of the spa.

7. Be prudent

Organizing a compact space, you have to think twice about each acquisition in order to accommodate everything you need. In this bathroom with a sloping ceiling there is a small shower cubicle with a size of 1x1.5 meters, which is equipped in the part of the room where the wall has the greatest height.

The bath is on the opposite side and shows off its magnificent, almost jeweler decor. The built-in curbstone beneath the sink seems quite roomy.

8. Use open racks and shelves

You will probably need a lot of storage space for a variety of items. In this bathroom, every centimeter of space is occupied by custom-made shelves, perfectly fitting into a single free angle and a non-standard niche in the wall.

Simple wooden bars very naturally look in this laconic interior.

9. Think creatively

Who said that a compact interior must necessarily be white and minimalist? We think it's a great idea to equip the shower in a wooden tub. Very cute, modest and as they say, with taste.

10. Find a place for a bath in the bedroom

Arrangement of an additional bathroom in the bedroom is more reasonable than it may seem at first glance. In fact places it is required a little.

In this bedroom, on the converted attic, there is an attic window, under which a bathtub is installed. How, it must be great to lie in it and get rid of stress, looking into the boundless sky.
