Strategies I Employed to Make My Compact Bathroom Appear Expansive by 10-Fold
Lucy Kalice, a home renovation and maintenance expert, recently completed a bathroom renovation that transformed her 1.8m by 1.8m space into a room that feels ten times larger. In a series of columns, she is sharing her tips for making bathrooms appear larger.
In the first article of this series, Lucy focuses on bathroom renovations. One of her key recommendations is to tile all the way from floor to ceiling, as this gives a seamless look and makes the room feel more open. She suggests using larger tiles, as they reflect light and make a room feel more spacious.
Lucy also recommends using wall-hanging fixtures, such as sinks and toilets. These fixtures can give a light and lifted appearance to a bathroom, helping to create the illusion of more space. For a smaller bathing space, she suggests using a thin-rimmed bath or considering a shower instead of a bath.
When it comes to doors, Lucy recommends a sliding door, either a pocket door or a barn door, for its space-saving and aesthetic qualities. A sliding door saves space by not taking up any additional room when open, unlike a traditional swing door. The barn door, in particular, adds a rustic charm to the room while saving space.
In addition to these tips, Lucy also recommends a short protrusion toilet for more floor space. This type of toilet takes up less space and can help to make a small bathroom feel larger.
By following these tips, Lucy was able to transform her small bathroom into a spacious and stylish space. Whether you're renovating a small bathroom or simply looking for ways to make it feel larger, Lucy's tips are a great place to start. Stay tuned for more articles in this series, where Lucy will share even more tips and tricks for home renovation and maintenance.
