Compact bathrooms have long been established as part of the home – be it in city apartments, in tiny houses or as part of a guest toilet. While space may be limited, expectations regarding comfort, functionality and design remain the same. This calls for a well considered concept that makes effective use of every inch of space. With smart solutions, a clear structure and a fine understanding of materials, rooms can be created with a spacious feel, despite their limited size.


Smart solutions for the washing area

Storage space is one of the greatest challenges in small bathrooms. Asymmetric furniture washbasins with a vanity top at the side make efficient use of the available space, while matching vanity units with drawers and open shelves create space and keep everything neat and tidy. Compact handrinse basins with a vanity unit provide a functional alternative in particularly narrow rooms. Those who prefer a lightness of touch will go for elegant metal consoles with integrated glass shelves and towel holders. Mirror cabinets provide an effective yet unobtrusive addition to the washing area, offering storage space just where it is needed.


Compact toilets for greater freedom of movement

Every inch counts in small bathrooms. Compact toilets with short projections are ideal for narrow spaces or guest toilets, as they save space without compromising on comfort. Shower toilets save even more space: They combine toilet and bidet in a single product and offer hygienic cleaning with water.


Would you prefer a shower or a bath? Both are possible

A floor-flush shower with glass partition opens up the available space and acts like a natural extension of the bathroom. Those who prefer to take a bath will also find fitting solutions: Compactly designed bathtubs can be installed in niches to save space. It is important that they blend harmoniously into the overall design of the bathroom, without appearing too dominant. While a shower is generally the most compact solution, with the right planning both a shower and a bathtub can be installed stylishly in a small bathroom.


Open room concepts create a feeling of space

An open, restful design makes small bathrooms appear larger. An air of space can be conjured up by avoiding visual breaks and conceiving the room as a harmonious entity. Large tiles, continuous floor coverings and transparent materials such as glass shower screens enhance this effect. Light colors and reflective surfaces are also conducive to creating a bright and airy room. Clear lines, minimalist designs and discreet coloring create a calm appearance.
