The trend of recent years to reduce the size of bathrooms, sometimes in exchange for having more bathrooms, especially in urban flats, makes bathroom design a challenge to adapt them to the smallest space. but fulfilling all our needs.
Because despite the fact that the size of the bathrooms tends to decrease, it seems that we are asking more and more and in addition to fulfilling the merely functional functions, we want the bathroom to be an intimate but comfortable and comfortable space, something has been put of I manifest more than ever during confinement.
We had already told you before about the need to have a very tidy bathroom to get the most out of your meters and we also gave you some tips and inspiration to get it.
Now Geberit, the company specialized in sanitary ware and bathroom technology with more than 145 years of experience in the sector, proposes five simple ideas that should be a ‘must’ when undertaking the reform of any bathroom, especially if it is to win space in small bathrooms.
Clear surfaces and few elements in sight
For bathrooms where space is scarce Geberit proposes to follow a minimalist aesthetic what is achieved leaving few elements visible so that harmony reigns in a small bathroom.
Placing the toilet flush on the wall (the flush flush) achieves this aesthetic balance by hiding one of the most bulky items in the bathroom. The options are varied, from embedding it in the existing wall, gaining up to 25% of space, to placing it in front by creating a false wall that also allows the creation of shelves and niches or holes that are very practical to store. Cosmetics and toiletries.
Replace the bathtub with a built-in shower on the floor
Replacing the bathtub with a shower (one of the most requested reforms in the bathroom) has many advantages; it ensures easy access to the shower area, rapid evacuation of water, very easy cleaning -since there are solutions with practical anti-hair filters in the collector area-, as well as gain more sense of space by keeping the floor continuous and uninterrupted. A transparent partition with sliding door is the great ally of this option.
Light and sanitary colors and raised floor furniture
Choosing light colors for both the walls and the floor and the furniture surfaces helps our senses perceive the space larger and provides more light to a small room. Raising both sanitary and furniture from the ground is another ‘must’ in conquering space. Not only is there a greater sense of spaciousness, but the floor is very easy to clean as it is free of obstacles and corners that are difficult to access.
Geberit also recommends deciding on compact solutions for both toilets and bidets, sinks and vanity units. There are very practical solutions that, despite their low projection, are very comfortable in daily use and have plenty of storage capacity for towels and other bathroom utensils, in the case of furniture.
‘2 in 1’ solutions
Innovative products like bidet toilets or ‘smart toilets’, which incorporate the toilet the water wash functions the bidetThey are another proposal for those who love to use the bidet but do not have enough space in their bathroom. A practical ‘2 in 1’ solution to avoid having to give up the unbeatable feeling of well-being of intimate hygiene with water, even if the bathroom is very small.
Contrasts and large illuminated mirrors
To avoid that the bathroom of (we remember of minimalist style and in light tones) does not have a flat design, ‘boring’ and without contrasts they recommend us from Geberit to finish off the design of the reform by choosing large mirrors with direct and indirect LED lighting that get interesting lighting effects, enlarge the space and create very personal environments.
They also propose playing with elements like the button for the flush tank, which do not have to be bland and proposes daring colors or finishes that contrast with the rest of the decoration, in metallic tones or natural materials such as wood or slate, for example.
