Lighting is key<\/a> in a bathroom, after all, it\u2019s one place where you\u2019ll constantly peer into the mirror!<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe best approach is to incorporate layers of task, accent, atmospheric, and decorative lighting. Unless you have some expertise in home design, it\u2019s probably best to seek advice from a professional on this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Choose the Right Height for Your Sink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Usually, countertops are 32 to 34 inches off the floor, but you need to consider how your sink will add to or take away from the countertop\u2019s height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have an above-counter vessel sink, for example, you need to make sure your counter height is lower so you can wash your hands or brush your teeth with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A trough sink is a good option. They are narrow, clean, and feature a low profile so are ideal for freeing up floor space for storage or for feet!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6. Consider a Corner Sink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Many bathrooms are small, so looking for ways to free up space is key when remodeling a bathroom. If you have a tight space, consider placing your sink in the corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not only do corner sinks look cute, but they can help avoid any traffic-flow issues if the shower entry door opens awkwardly into the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
7. Choose a Tiny Tub<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Likewise, if you have a small bathroom it\u2019s easy to write off owning a bathtub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, you may be able to get away with having one. Many companies keep small bathrooms in mind and shrink their models down to accommodate thrifty little spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
8. Convert Your Tub to a Shower<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Not someone who takes bathes regularly? With the convenience of showers, many people avoid bathing altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re one of those people, it may be worth getting rid of your tub altogether. If you don\u2019t use your bathtub regularly, that\u2019s a huge space in a confined area going to waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While you can replace your bathtub with other furnishings, converting it to a shower would be cost effective as you can make use of the space and you wouldn\u2019t have to reroute the plumbing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The benefits of remodeling your bathroom \u2013 saving space!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9. Pick the Right Vanity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Choosing the right vanity for your bathroom is crucial. Not only is it an aesthetic focal point of the room, but sizing is just as important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Choose a vanity too big and you could impact your bathroom\u2019s traffic routes. Too small and you\u2019ll be wishing you had more countertop space and storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A good option is to float your vanity. It gives the impression that the bathroom is larger, while also leaving floor space for storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tight space? Round the corners of your vanity to help with traffic routes. Small spaces can make sharp corners a hazard for hips, and you don\u2019t want those bruised every day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another great idea for smaller bathrooms is to expand your mirror from your vanity across to the wall. This means that two people can use the mirror and brush those teeth ready for bed together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another of the advantages of remodeling your bathroom \u2013 in the long run, it will save time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
10. Splurge on a Few High-End Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Once you\u2019ve made a rough plan and estimated costs, you may have the luxury of spending any excess budget on higher-quality materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As bathrooms are usually smaller spaces, they are the one room in the house where you can justify splurging on better materials and finishes to give it a lavish look. Even if it\u2019s just a small portion of the bathroom that uses higher-quality material, it can make all the difference to giving it that lustrous designer feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A bathroom is going to last a long time, and a lot of time will be spent in there so why not inject a dose of luxury if you can?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
