Bathroom: strategies for optical enlargement

  • 4 months ago

Small bathrooms appear larger and more inviting with the right design strategies. One key approach is to maximize natural light. To do this, anything that could block the window, such as a dark sunshade or large plants, should be removed. Bright, reflective surfaces such as mirrors and chrome fittings, on the other hand, help to spread the light around the room, making the bathroom appear larger.

The choice of color also plays a decisive role in visually enlarging a small bathroom. Light colors on the walls and floors create a feeling of space. However, if the bathroom is low and not very well lit, white quickly looks dull. In such cases, a dark accent wall in grey or blue can create a cozy atmosphere without making the room look smaller. The right mix of light and dark tones is crucial for the feel of the room.

Another tip for visually enlarging small bathrooms is to keep the floor as free as possible. Wall-mounted pieces of furniture enlarge the visible floor area and make the bathroom appear more spacious. Decorations should be used sparingly. However, a single, eye-catching element such as a designer washbasin or a special mirror can serve as an eye-catcher without overloading the room.
