The bathroom is one of the hardest rooms to do when designing or renovating a home. This is because the bathroom is much smaller compared to the other rooms in the house. With the small space of a bathroom, maximizing the space and choosing the right fixtures and storage is quiet challenging. It needs careful planning and creativity so you can make the most of your small space without sacrificing its functionality and comfort.

To make most out of your small bathroom, designing it can be quite tricky. Here are some effective tricks so you can make use of the small space:

1. Open up the space in the bathroom. You can do this by finding storage space wherever possible that does not consume too much room. Using the back of the door in the bathroom, for example, is a good place to hang some of your items in the bathroom. You can do this by mounting hooks and bars on the back of the door.

2. Make use of the corners in the bathroom. Often, a lot of space goes unused and are just wasted on the corners. It's a good thing to take advantage of these spaces rather than just leaving them empty. You can put your bathroom furniture or storage in there. There is a lot of bathroom furniture and bathroom storage items that are especially designed to fit in the corners of the bathroom.

3. Use the upper spaces towards the ceiling in the bathroom. There is a huge space towards the ceiling for the storage of bathroom items. Instead of using a wide area in the room for the storage of your items, why not use the spaces up high. You can do this by using bathroom storage furniture that goes straight up to lessen the use of the space on the ground.

4. In decorating the bathroom, avoid dark colors and too much decor as it will make the bathroom look cramped. Warm colors and light tones will lighten up the space. For bathroom sinks, toilets and tubs, white porcelain is ideal. Be minimal with the decor. Choose pieces that will accent and not inhibit the space in your bathroom. As much as possible, keep the toiletries out of sight.

With well placed items, bright colors and lighting, you can make most out of your small space in the bathroom.
