Colour palette decides the size !

One of the easiest ways to give your toilet space a spacious look is to use light and pastel colours, which will help in reflecting more light rather than absorbing and helps in achieving a larger look.

A well-lit bathroom will always look bigger than a dim/harshly lit one.

Wall Cavities…

Storage is an essential way when you have small space, it’s very important to use it wisely and give a seamless look.

Have you ever heard about a term called ‘niche’ ?

Yes, a bathroom niche enables you to use extra space within the wall and it also helps in adding visual depth to the wall which makes it look farther away than they really are.And if you are not a lover of open shelves you can use the niche space as an insert cabinet where you can let your toilet brush, paper holder and other stuff in it.

Same tone/colour/value…

Always stick with a subtle, matching colour for the floor, wall and tiles to create a larger look.

Using floating vanity units and water closets helps you to make it appear spacious. Using fixtures of the same colour gives a seamless look and gives the spacious appeal to the space.

Clear glass partitions look clean and also let in abundant light and makes the space appear bright and big.

Larger the mirror, Bigger the space !

Mirrors serve a great part in achieving the spacious feel of the space.A large mirror can visually help you to double up  the size of your actual space.

Bathroom mirrors help to bring you more light inside the space. Instead of hanging a small mir above the vanity . Consider mirroring the whole wall or large portion of it which will moreover act like a window to light the room and create the illusion of being bigger.
