Small Bathroom Remodeling Ideas
Baltimore | Maryland | Annapolis | Columbia
Are you looking at small bathroom remodeling ideas in Baltimore, Columbia, Ellicott City, and the Maryland area? Here are some basic ideas to help your plans.
You can start remodeling a small bathroom and end up with a big one, strictly through proper lighting, colors, and mirrors that work well with your space. Even the most condensed space will open up if treated correctly.
Mirrors Are Important
Mirrors are your friends. Do not settle for tiny; make it big and your area will quickly appear larger. Also try a bright colorful frame. You are not trying to trick people into thinking the space is bigger, their eyes naturally will do that for you, so add a bold frame and you would do a better job drawing their sight to the reflected surface. Ultimately, no small bathroom remodeling project is complete without a mirror or two.
Use Windows For Natural Lighting
Windows are another way to battle claustrophobia, add practical lighting, and generally make the space more comfortable. Even a skylight will do a lot to a space, making it airy and bright. Your window treatments are something you want to be particularly mindful of, because a poorly thought out covering may make you and guests feel very awkward, trying to close curtains for privacy that do not close effectively.
Small bathroom remodeling projects also often extend to the doors as well as windows, so think about how a different door can work with your space. As an idea, think about how reeded glass paneling would let in more light, break up the solidity of the door, and create an interesting focal point on an otherwise unacknowledged wall.
Cleverly designed sinks and showers can help immensely. A sink is necessary, but why waste all the space around and under it? They are perfect areas for towel racks or shelves and cabinets. A clear glass shower stall can really extend the seen walls (maybe try a half wall for privacy, though how often do you shower in your small bath with company that you need to hide from?), further making the space comfortable and open.
Your small bathroom remodeling job is not only about saving space and making the room seem bigger. Consider design and style features, seeing how your tiny room works with your greater house. Often pretty small bathrooms create a contrasting color palate to the walls and hallways that contain them. Try thinking about a bold lime green and watery blue or bright orange cooled with a deep brown against a long white or otherwise neutral hallway. Merely keeping the door open turns your bathroom into a larger design element.
Break Up The Walls & Floor Space
A last element that can really add style and decoration when remodeling small bathrooms is breaking up wall and floor space with clever patterns. Think about small detail tiles on the floor or bright cheerful molding patterns. Breaking up solid spaces with subtle lines and sections will make your small bathroom into something stylish, lavish, and elegant.
Sometimes small bathroom remodeling jobs become the biggest remodeling jobs, so talk to a designer about the real tips of trade, and you will create a room that is comfortable and inviting. Contact Kenwood Kitchens for help with your next small bathroom remodeling project.
