Styles And Colors
Though this space is small, you should make it stylish, too, and first of all, define the style of your home and stick to it – it will make your small bathroom look seamless. Express this style with tiles, concrete, wood and other materials you may use for bathroom decor. If it’s a farmhouse bathroom, why not incorporate wood-imitating tiles and wooden furniture, if it’s a minimalist space, keep it clean and sleek, prefer black fixtures, if it’s a glam space, bring in some gold and some glam geo tiles, and if you are having a boho bathroom, incorporate bright tiles and macramé touches. Don’t clutter the space, otherwise it will look smaller.
As for colors, a neutral color scheme will be a perfect solution for a small space but you may also go for a contrasting or monochromatic color scheme or try some colorful touches – it depends on your style and mood you wanna achieve here.
