In a small bathroom, space is won in centimetres. The good news: you don't have to knock down a wall to make the room feel bigger — a few right decisions are enough.
1. A corner enclosure instead of a bathtub
Removing the tub and fitting a corner-entry shower enclosure frees the circulation space in the middle of the room. Doors that open from two sides also remove the swing-clearance problem in narrow bathrooms.
2. Keep the floor uninterrupted
Using one covering in the shower area and another in the rest of the bathroom splits the room in two and makes it smaller. Carrying the same décor everywhere gives the eye nothing to stop at. Because SPC flooring can be used in wet areas, this is now possible.
3. Add vertical lines
A slatted wall panel makes the ceiling read higher. One wall is enough — behind the basin, for example — giving a sense of height without crowding the room.
4. Match the skirting to the wall
In small spaces contrast divides. A white skirting in the same tone as the wall makes the transition between floor and wall disappear, and the room reads as one piece.
5. Don't cut up the glass
The more profiles there are, the more the eye stops at each line. An enclosure with slim profiles and wide glass doesn't block your view of the far wall — and that alone makes the room feel larger.
