7 Ways to Style Up and Maximise Your Small Bathroom Space

Looking for ways to style up and maximise your bathroom space? So is most of Sydney. 

Bathrooms designs are tricky, especially when space is limited. With bathroom requirements staying the same and space shrinking, bathroom designs need to be more creative and efficient. Done right can help make the room seem brighter and more spacious. Thankfully, we have gathered an abundance of ideas that can form your small bathroom into a spacious modern bathroom design.

These small bathroom renovation ideas make the most of the space available and demonstrate that bold design elements can be situated even in the tiniest spaces. Novalé designers utilise several design tips and tricks to make standard small and narrow bathrooms look great whilst implementing a larger feel in the area.

Recessed Shelves

Recessed shelves are a very popular inclusion in small bathroom renovations. This modern bathroom design manages clutter in the space whilst making everything easily accessible. This small bathroom renovation Newcastle uses the recessed shelves with the mirror vanity as it adds storage options without compromising the floor area. The use of open shelves means you can have all the bathroom essentials you need without overcrowding the already cramped room.

‘False wall’ shelf

A ‘false wall’ shelf can create a captivating architectural feature with a shelf that can be very practical for a small space. This is a trick that Novalé designers regularly use to achieve an extra element of space in the bathroom. They are more effortless to install than you think and add a ton of value to your home.

Our small bathroom renovation Newcastle showcases this element very well. With the ledge running the whole length of the tub, you have plenty of room to house your soaps and bottles, as well as plants along the top. It is a great addition to work up free space and create an open and welcoming environment.

Glass shower screen

Shower screens and dividers make rooms smaller by cutting off the line of vision. However, it can often introduce a bulky element that interrupts the room’s flow. The most efficient modern bathroom design is where it serves its purpose without limiting space. 

The glass shower screen in this functional Lane Cove North renovation makes the room appear more spacious and airier. A glass shower screen is the way to go if you have a smaller bathroom. As a result, they provide an excellent choice for small bathrooms where maximising space is often essential. However, it offers far more elegance in your modern bathroom design, not to mention plenty of visual appeals.

Accent Wall

Accent walls give a bathroom definition and personality. For example, adding an accent wall, small bathroom renovations provides the room with a focal point that switches the attention from its size. They help draw focus to a show-stopping feature such as a soaking tub or custom vanity.

The accent wall features a Moroccan scale tile to transform the space from dull and boring to gorgeous and eye-catching in our Willoughby renovation. It’s beautiful shape and colour make it the perfect fit if you are going for a sophisticated modern bathroom design.

Mirrors and Windows

Mirrors are a magnificent way to enhance the size of a room. Alongside mirrors, windows allow natural light into the space, framing a great view of the outdoors to extend the vision making the room appear larger. In fact, placing a mirror on the opposite wall of the window can actually increase the depth of space even more. It is a favourable element used by Novalé designers to give the illusion of space.

Floating Vanities

Floor-based vanities take up a ton of room and look bulky. Mounting your vanity is the perfect solution to maximise space in your small bathroom renovations. Simply, it frees your floor space from clutter and makes your area feel less boxed in. Not only that, it gives the eye more room to look. This scaled-down minimalist floating vanity is perfect for modern bathrooms with limited space. Opt-in for a vanity with plenty of storage for your towels and toiletries to show off truly how organised you are.

Skylights

Bathrooms are often small spaces and may only have a modest window that does not allow much natural light. Limited light can make a small bathroom renovation feel very enclosed and claustrophobic. Adding in a skylight increases the amount of light entering the bathroom and adds to the room’s ambience.

A skylight becomes an added benefit to upgrade your bathroom’s look and feel while brightening the room, which as a result, gives a feel of a larger area. Plus, you get a view of the night sky or nature during the day.
