Home Improvement: Organizing Your Small Bathroom

Often it so happens that we decorate and organize our entire homes and leave the bathroom for the last. By then, both our resources and enthusiasm have drained out and we keep on ignoring our bathroom. This happens to a greater extent with smaller compact bathroom spaces, as here we need to flex our minds a bit more than usual. The good news is that with a little bit of pre-planning and research, homeowners can do wonders with bathroom organization. Smaller spaces make the task a bit challenging but with the ideas that we bring to you today, the task will be more of fun than anything else.

Bathroom Organization In Narrow Spaces-The Linear Method

Well yes, I do agree that there are basic spacial parameters that need to be followed while designing a space but in case you bring in some ingenuity you can be given room to cheat. The WC and the washbasin can easily be accommodated on the smaller wall of the bathroom. One can choose to use a slightly smaller vanity and place the mirror in the center for a more symmetrical look. And who says that it will lead to a cluttered look. Just have a look at the image below:)

Under Counter Storage As A Part Of Bathroom Organization

I would categorize under counter storage as a must-have in any compact bathroom space. Not only it helps conceal the revolting plumbing but it also provides you with some precious storage space. So in go the bathroom cleaning supplies or even your bathroom linen if you please!

Attics Are Best Used For Bathtubs

Most of us go frenzy thinking about how to organize a bathroom in case it falls in the attic area. Attic slopes can generate the most romantic bathroom spaces ever. Install a neat bathtub beneath the attic window and you will never complain about your bathroom being a compact one.

Bathroom Organization With Utility Center

The space opposite the wash basin usually goes waste. What if you incorporate the depth of the bathing space to create a small utility center. Confused about it? Have a look at the image below and see how the depth of the bathing space has been used creatively.

Storage Above The Bathtub

The area opposite the shower installation in the bathtub space can provide some precious storage space too. Since the plumbing requirements in that part of the wall are nonexistent one can think of making the walls thinner in some parts so as to give rise to shallow niches that can store bathroom essentials.
