Make the most of your small bathroom.
Contemporary apartments have smaller square footage than ever before. If you live in a densely populated city like Shanghai, Hong Kong, or Singapore, your bathroom most likely feels like a shoebox. As an adventurous minimalist, you can make your favorite room feel huge with just a few changes.

Create the illusion of space
Before moving one piece of furniture, maximize the room by bringing the outside in. Take advantage of the window and natural light coming in, and use mirrors and glass materials to double the reflective impact inside.
Natural wall colors such as pastels, light blue, green, cream, and off-white amplify the light, which can further be optimized with well-placed artificial light sources to give the room an airy vibe. Combined with glossy tiles or partly lacquered walls, the atmosphere becomes bouncy and fresh. While reducing the color contrast, adding various surface textures keeps the space from falling flat.

Minimize furniture to open up space
Use the minimalist approach by replacing a regular swinging door with a sliding door or the bathtub with a shower featuring an overhead shower panel. Think about what can go and what can be optimized.
It’s all about proportion. Fixtures need to be chosen at the correct scale of the room. The smaller the space, the simpler and more compact they need to be. A round toilet bowl replaces the elongated model, wall-mounted faucets save vanity space, and a wall mounted vanity with softer corners opens floor space and provides a slew of storage possibilities. It also prevents you from banging into the edges.
In addition to taller cabinets for storage or shelves displaying beautiful objects, the vanity and mirror combination may hold items you use daily. The built-in storage helps to decrease clutter on the vanity top.

Opt for functionality
In a small area, function must come first. Combine functionality with a clean look and easy-access storage to conveniently elevate your makeup and preparation time. A seamless countertop with a sink and a mirrored medicine cabinet offer plenty of options to store soft and hard things.

Make it yours
Personalize the little room with décor. Tiny, rounded shelves fit in every corner to hold cosmetics or vases. A basket with fresh towels or bespoke artwork makes the space memorable and add warmth. But remember to leave some negative space to let the eye rest and the mind imagine a larger area.
