Maximising light within your small or compact bathroom is unquestionably a step in the right direction. However, if your space lacks light, you will find you have a few issues in brightening your abode.

2. Choose an all-white colour scheme

Turn your bathroom into a wet room by removing your shower screen. Not only does this increase the perceived amount of space in the area, but it is a fabulously luxurious way to increase your bathroom's lavishness.

6. Enhance mirrors in your bathroom

Mirrors reflect light within a space, and work brilliantly within small or compact areas of the home. Look for large panels of mirror, and pair them with sleek fittings, fixtures and accessories.

7. Incorporate floating shelves

Floating shelves remove the space that a cupboard would normally take up, ensuring that each area of the room feels spacious and open. 

Take some cues from this neat and tidy example, which works brilliantly to save space, while also providing essential surfaces for accessories and accoutrements.

8. Add contrast

Contrast creates and adds depth to a room, ensuring it is engaging to the user and occupant. Mix up your interior design, focus on utilising a few different colours, and build a captivating and intriguing tiny bathroom.

9. Go dark!

If you don't fancy the idea of a bright white bathroom, then switch it up and go for a dark hue. If you do decide to go with a shadowy shade, remember to employ mood lighting and avoid excessively bright lights that might remove the spacious aspects of the chosen colour.
