Three options for arranging equipment in a spacious room remain the most common:
- A large base under the sink allows you to conveniently install a washing machine. The free space next to the appliances is used as a cabinet for toiletries or open shelves with beautiful decorative baskets for towels are arranged;
- any niche (built-in or made from plasterboard) perfectly camouflages the washing machine. Moreover, the structure must be used as much as possible - open shelves or cabinets are attached above the machine;
- built into furniture. Tall narrow cabinets are great for placing a boiler and washing machine.
A popular option is to place equipment in the corner of the bathroom without being tied to furniture or sanitary products. In this case, it is important that the machine does not interfere with the free movement of residents.

Bath or shower stall
There is no clear decision when choosing, since it is necessary to take into account the size of the room, the preferences of the residents, and the financial situation. In a spacious room, a bathtub becomes a luxury; it can be placed anywhere (the fashion trend is in the center of the room). If the restroom is small in size, then the main advantage of the bathtub is that it is convenient for taking a light shower and is quite suitable for spa treatments.
The shower stall will appeal to young, dynamic people. Moreover, such installations have become very multifunctional, allowing you to turn the cabin into a home sauna. In small rooms (Khrushchev house), a shower may be the only option in which you can place a washing machine, a small closet or a double washbasin.

Where to put the bidet?
When installing plumbing, the first thing to evaluate is the distance to the sewer drain. It is also important to provide a minimum distance (60 cm) between plumbing items when planning. If the toilet and bidet are installed near the same wall, then maintain a distance of 35-45 cm between them.
We adapt to the dimensions
It is important to adapt your plans to the dimensions of the bathroom to avoid cluttering furniture. Perhaps some ideas will have to be adjusted, some will have to be abandoned altogether.
But a convenient layout will make the bathroom comfortable for you and your loved ones.
Cramped bathroom
Planning the design of a small bathroom is not at all easy. But also for owners of rooms with an area of 2x2, or even just 3 square meters. meters there is a way out!

- A mirror without a frame should be 5-8 centimeters larger than the sink. Glass shelves on the walls will let light through the transparent surfaces, making the room spacious and cozy. A cabinet or bookcase will have to be made to order: such small furniture is rarely found in our stores.
- A miniature bathroom should not be cluttered with rugs, coasters, liquid soap dispensers and other accessories. It’s enough to choose a few bright things that will set accents and emphasize your individuality. And let everything else “live” in a specially designated place for the necessary little things, which every housewife certainly has.
Middle option
The average option is considered to be a bathroom with an area of 4 to 7 square meters. m. There is much more room for imagination here.
- For example, you can install a partition, separating the shower room from the “utility” area, where there will be a washbasin, washing machine and cabinet for bath accessories.
- Bathroom for 5, 6 and 7 square meters. m can be divided into several zones, choosing a specific color scheme, lighting or decorative partitions for each. You shouldn’t use all the elements at once, so as not to overload the space.
- The bathroom can be divided into a maximum of three zones: for water treatments, a utility room and a washing area. If you have a combined bathroom, the zoning varies: the utility part and laundry are combined into one and a personal hygiene area is added.
Large plumbing fixtures and furniture in the average version with an area of 2x3 square meters. m will look bulky, so save space with compact models. So, this area will allow you to install a shower cabin or a corner hydromassage bathtub
Pay attention to triangular bathtub models, they look stylish and save space. Glass shelves and hanging cabinets with mirrored doors will make the bathroom look more spacious, and a narrow multi-level pencil case is suitable for storing bath towels and household items.
When there is room to turn around
A large area is truly a gift
There is room for imagination to run wild, so it is especially important not to clutter the bathroom, but to fill it correctly
- A number of design solutions come down to installing a large, beautiful bathtub in the middle of the room or closer to the center, and the rest of the interior items are located along the walls. This option for arranging a bathroom is unusual and makes you feel like a royal person or a romantic young lady, it all depends on the style you choose.
- A beautiful fountain with fresh flowers around looks stylish and modern in the center of the room, and the bathtub modestly occupies a place in the corner. However, on an area of 9, 10, 11 or 12 square meters. m can accommodate a couple of shower cabins. Or shower and jacuzzi. It all depends on your personal preferences and capabilities.
- Proper planning will allow you to turn the bathroom into a room where you can chat with loved ones after a hard day, and just have a good time. The plumbing needs to be “hidden” behind a thin partition, and a washbasin should be placed next to it along with a washing machine, cabinets and shelves. The passage between the hygiene and relaxation areas also needs to be beautifully decorated with a partition, half-wall or arched structure.
- Depending on the chosen style, each zone can be emphasized with color, spotlighting, or a multi-level ceiling. The whole family will gather around a small table in the “relaxation room”; warm colors and soft light will create a cozy, relaxed atmosphere. A false window will add a zest to the interior, which will not only allow you to admire a beautiful picture every day, but will also hide the imperfections of the walls.
Zoning in the bathroom
For a modern apartment or house dweller, a bathroom is more than just a room for washing/taking procedures. It began to rapidly turn into a relaxation zone. Comfortable Jacuzzis with hydromassage help you relax and unwind. Spacious rooms are increasingly furnished with small armchairs and fireplaces, highlighting separate zones, so the choice of partitions is taken carefully.

Glass partitions for the bathroom
The special beauty of glass is that you can combine it with other materials or create entirely glass walls. Separating the bathtub from the washbasin (right/left) is a fairly common technique. In this case, the lower half of the partition is made opaque, and the upper part is made of glass.
Sliding glass partitions are an original idea for zoning a spacious bathroom. Transparent glass does not reduce the space, but allows you to isolate individual areas at the right time.

Glass blocks in the bathroom
Sometimes there is a need to build a partition, but you don’t want to see a blank wall. An excellent solution to the problem are glass blocks, which simultaneously transmit sunlight and act as a partition. Blocks can be selected in different shapes (square, rectangle, triangle) and laid out in any form (straight, with a bend). A bathroom with a window looks great when combining glass blocks with different materials.

Plasterboard partition
This is the most popular and affordable material to build partitions. You can create an additional wall in half a day. For a bathroom, it is advisable to decorate drywall with ceramic tiles and mosaics. An economical option is to paint it with water-repellent paint. If desired, such a partition can simultaneously serve as one of the walls of a shower or a decorative niche.
Bathroom finishing materials
To create a comfortable environment, it is advisable to use several different materials. Moreover, the choice of finishes is widely presented in stores: glass, wood, ceramics, mosaic, stone.

The material is the most practical solution:
- easy to clean;
- not afraid of humidity;
- easy to install;
- you can choose any design.
Personal preference matters when choosing tiles. But it is important to take into account the characteristics of the material: large tiles visually make the room smaller, and the combination of elements of different sizes looks original. The vertical arrangement of rectangular stripes or small tiles on the floor visually make the room more spacious.

Luxury wood finish
A bold alternative to tiles is wood. There is no need to worry about the material: hardwoods (teak, larch, bamboo, beech) are chosen for finishing wet rooms. The room is equipped with forced ventilation. Wood reacts poorly to incandescent lamps, so fluorescent or LED lighting is installed.
Wood is used to decorate walls, floors, ceilings and to create furniture. Wooden plumbing fixtures – bathtubs, washbasins – look unexpected.
Popular PVC
This is an excellent budget renovation option if you want to quickly refresh your interior. The main advantages of the material: high water resistance, convenient and quick installation, wide selection of colors and textures.
Plastic sheets increase the sound and heat insulation of a room and make it easy to cover sewer lines. When working and during operation, it is necessary to take into account the fragility of the plastic and the ability to deform.

Budget paint
A large selection in construction stores allows you to choose both traditional compositions and fashionable new items:
- popular: water-based emulsion (dries quickly, easy to apply, no unpleasant odor), latex mixtures (high protective properties, fill small cracks in the wall, aesthetic appearance); acrylic (antimicrobial qualities, resistant to stains, wide range of shades);
- New products include silicate compounds (fill deep cracks, do not allow water to pass through), chlorinated rubber (they tolerate long-term contact with water, are easy to care for, and have a bactericidal effect).
Bathroom paint must have antibacterial additives.

How to place plumbing fixtures
Oddly enough, even in the case of a small bathroom you have a choice between a shower stall and a bathtub. Of course, both options must be miniature and fit clearly into the space.
Combining a sink with a bathtub will provide space that is enough to install a small, but still bathtub. It can be angular or some non-standard shape. If there is a free niche left under it, then it can be put to good use by placing shelves there that can be closed with sliding doors.
A built-in shower cabin will allow you to use the space even more efficiently. The tray for such a cabin can be mounted from tiles, making a slope to drain water.
Doors or fences can be made of glass or plastic, or maybe it will just be an original curtain.
To save space, you can use a wall-hung sink. A washing machine can easily fit under this sink. Fortunately, today on the market there is more than ever a large selection of various plumbing fixtures and household appliances that will satisfy any needs.
It happens that a small bathroom is combined with a toilet. In this case, it is better to hide all kinds of pipes with plasterboard construction or furniture. You can also install a toilet cistern built into the wall.
If the toilet is wall-hung, this will also add space to the room. Take a closer look at the models of corner toilets, maybe this is exactly what suits you.
Selection of bathroom furniture
Difficult operating conditions place special demands on items. Materials must withstand high humidity and temperature changes. Traditional options are metal (stamping or forged products), glass (preferably tempered), plastic. Chipboard or MDF are the best choice in terms of price/quality ratio. Luxurious natural materials (marble, wood) are expensive and require special care.
Compactness and versatility are important components of furniture. In a spacious room, it is advisable to select small mobile bedside tables (on wheels). The popularity of wall-mounted products is increasing (they do not take up space, they are spacious). A pencil case is a universal item that is in demand in a room of any size.

Popular colors
Most often, the bathroom is decorated in one color, although choosing a monochrome interior is a controversial decision. On the one hand, it is easier to choose materials, but on the other hand, plain interiors can look boring and uncomfortable. Selecting the design of a bathroom of 10 sq. m, always take into account the peculiarities of the shades of the color palette.
Traditional white bathroom
Classic white
This color is associated with cleanliness and is popular when decorating bathrooms. To reduce the “sterility” of the interior, white shades are combined with different colors.

Nice black
For a bathroom of 9 sq. m with a shower and toilet has not acquired an intimidating appearance; the black color is diluted with light shades. The black and white duet does not lose its relevance. To visually expand the room, the lower part of the walls is made black, and the upper part is light. Be sure to add bright accessories (laundry basket, lampshades, textiles).
Energetic red
The expressive bright color looks extraordinary both in monochrome and in combination with other shades. In large single-color rooms, different textures look original: mosaics on the walls and large stones on the floor.
In smaller rooms it makes sense to combine tones. A white bathroom with red elements (textiles, individual elements on the walls, floor) is the most acceptable design option, since red shades visually “eat up” the space.

Naturalness of brown tones
Natural brown color is rich in shades. A monochrome interior or furnishings complemented with sand, gray, green or white tones looks elegant. A bathroom decorated in soft, natural colors always has a relaxing effect. It should be borne in mind that the predominance of too dark shades will give the room a gloomy look.
Freshness of greens
The special property of green color is to simultaneously calm and set the mood for positivity. Most often, greens are combined with white. The green color scheme can be the main color base of the interior or complement another shade. You should also take into account that “warm” tones are considered to be lime, lettuce, pistachio, and marsh. And mint, emerald, and sea green are considered “cold.”
To decorate a room of 10 sq. It is fashionable to use complex shades of moss, bottle or myrtle.

Bathroom style
When choosing the interior for a room, it is advisable to start from the general style of the apartment. However, the wishes of the residents and their lifestyle must be taken into account:
- calm, slow-moving natures will like rooms decorated in traditional classics. To decorate the bathroom, pastel shades (sand, lavender, light green) with smooth transitions are selected. An excellent option for a spacious room is to install a font in the center. A mirror in a carved frame will complement the interior;
- fans of natural materials and simple forms will like eco-interior or country, Provence, Scandinavian style. Pleasant soft colors (creamy, blurry blue, pale pink) will create a homely atmosphere.
Dynamic residents will find it easy to stay in spacious rooms decorated in minimalist and high-tech styles.

Lighting
In the struggle for every square meter, it is very important to choose the right lighting. One overhead stream of light will burden the design and put emotional pressure on a person. It is better to install built-in ceiling lights around the perimeter. This is not difficult to do if the ceiling is suspended. You can install sconces on the walls, and also illuminate the mirror.
Of course, the problem of a small room can be solved more radically. You can combine a bath with a toilet and even take away part of the corridor. Then the area of the room will increase noticeably. The design of a 4 by 2 (or 3 by 2 m) bathroom is much easier to beat. A person will feel freer, and objects can be placed more ergonomically.
But, firstly, this requires money, and secondly, permission must be obtained to change the layout. If this is not possible, follow the tips given in the article, then even a small bathroom of 2 square meters will become functional.
