Throughout the small space bathroom remodeling process, be sure to think of the project from several angles: overall design, functionality, aesthetic appeal, materials, colors ... Remember that bathroom remodeling, especially in apartments, can be fun! And while you may typically shy away from crazy designs in the rest of your home, a small bathroom is the one place that can handle vibrant colors, patterns and fun themes. It can also be a careful representation of the era or ambience of your home. Let your imagination run wild. Just keep in mind that in small spaces, it's best to choose one theme and stick with it. If you're going with tile, choose the same or similar color of tile to repeat throughout.
Another idea to keep in mind when coming up with bathroom remodeling ideas is to consider a liberal use of unframed mirrors, which will keep a sense of visual continuity and will make the room appear larger. Also, if you're in the market for some additional storage space, don't forget that there may be additional attic space above you that may be able to be configured into storage-or, there may be the possibility of adding a skylight, which adds drama, style and the illusion of larger space. You might also want to think of using a pedestal sink, which makes the room look bigger and allows for additional spaces for sliding in freestanding shelving.

Most houses have small bathrooms. Yet, often bathrooms are not seen as a space where one can spend quality time. Thus they are usually just designed to be comfortable and efficient enough.

Bathroom remodeling ideas are not limited to big, luxurious bathrooms that perhaps have more leeway with space and moving around their bathroom fixtures and remodeling plumbing and electrical outlets.

Sure, you may need some help from a plumber, but there’s no rule that says your small bathroom can’t be a nicely designed room where you can still relax and find privacy. You don’t want to always be leaving your bathroom, as soon as possible, because what’s the point of spending a whole afternoon in an ugly, cold bathroom?

Well, it doesn’t have to be ugly and cold. Put your bathroom remodeling hat on now and take care of your small space; we have some fantastic bathroom remodeling tips and great bathroom remodeling how to suggestions.

Small Bathroom Design First of all, did you know that mirrors – especially positioned facing each other if possible – give a fantastic illusion of a larger space?

A sexy small bathroom feature is adding a full-length mirror especially if it’s anywhere the bathtub or the shower area.

Another great bathroom remodeling idea is to invest in mirror tiles; basically, the more mirrors, the better.

Another thing to remember when one is remodeling bathroom – especially if it’s a small bathroom – is to consider its colors. As with any other room you probably won’t want to make this limited space too dark, dark will make the walls seem as if they’re closing in on you, plus it gives an impression of cold.

The best color is definitely off-white, you may notice in most of bathroom remodeling photos (usually available online) that small spaces tend to be pale, not clinically white but rather soft and gentle in their shade. It is always good to add flowers, or geometrical or flower designs (tiles, prints, trimmings) to accentuate the style of your bathroom. Make sure that these are small and also pale in color.

Lightning too, is important. One of the best bathroom remodeling ideas is to combine the mirrors with the lighting fixtures and the color for the best illusion of space. Your lights should be spaced out well, the fool-proof suggestion (according to bathroom remodeling for dummies series) is to invest in a strip of light bulbs above your main mirror.

Finally, you may to consider – instead of bumping into your bathtub and always striving for space and style – a bathroom remodeling shower. For example, a nice see-through glass cubicle with white trimmings or mirrors inside it will be a beautiful – and functional – asset to any small bathroom.

have a look at this this is too good

It really depends on your goal and who will be using the small bath and how frequently.

For a small space guest bath or powder room, you can cut down on storage space and make the room look larger with streamlined fixtures and incorporate more expensive fixtures and finishings, making it a very special room.

If it's a primary bathroom, used daily by one or more, then you will need to focus more on creating efficient storage, maintaining a clear path in and out of the area, and having surfaces that are easy to clean.

In either case, good lighting is a must, as well as proper ventilation and temperature control.

Paint it a light color. Dark will make it seem more closed in. Mirrors are a good trick too for expanding a space.

For the sink, I would maybe use a furniture-style vanity to give it some style.
