Small bathrooms can be quite a challenge, especially when faced with the choice: bathtub or shower. We suggest what are the advantages of both these solutions so that your bathroom is not only beautiful, but also functional and comfortable.
The biggest dilemma we face when designing a small bathroom is choosing a bathtub or a shower? However, it depends on many factors, and in fact with a little desire both options will work perfectly. We suggest what advantages they both have.
In small bathrooms, the most practical solution is of course the shower. But what should you pay attention to when choosing it? First of all, you should match the shower to the size of your bathroom and its style. The most compact solution will certainly be a shower cabin that meets only the wall, on which the faucet is mounted, or corner cabins. By choosing this type of shower, you will certainly save a lot of space. You can also choose from a variety of shapes – your new shower enclosure can be rectangular, square, oval, based on a circle or its quarter, and if you like unusual design solutions, even in the shape of any polygon
When choosing a shower, also pay attention to the door. The most popular are the swinging ones, which open to one or two sides. However, remember that they require free space in front of the shower, so pay attention to the bathroom furniture. The material of the walls and doors in the shower enclosure is also very important. A great solution are those covered with special glass coatings that protect against dirt and unsightly stains
When buying the perfect shower, it is also important to choose a shower faucet. It should be made of durable materials that will resist dirt and scale formation.
A great idea for an arrangement that optically enlarges a small bathroom is also a walk-in cabin. Such an open shower is simply a fragment of the bathroom separated by a wall of glass and a mounted shower mixer. This is a very effective solution and looks great in modern interiors. In addition, such a cabin walk-in much easier to keep clean than the traditional one, because it does not have any hard to reach nooks and crannies. This solution has many advantages, but before you decide on this type of shower, you should also remember about its weaker sides. They include, first of all, the compiled preparation of the floor before installation. It is also worth remembering that this cabin will require your bathroom to be extremely well insulated and ventilated, in order to drain the rising water vapor.
Despite appearances, bathroom tubs can also be a good solution for a small bathroom. Remember, however, that in small bathrooms you should focus on saving space. Therefore, an excellent idea will be, for example, a bathroom bathtub with a large number of storage compartments. Thanks to this, it will replace a piece of furniture and you will gain additional space for storing cosmetics or towels – after all, neatly stored things make the interior look much better and more elegant. It is also worth mentioning that bathtubs are a great convenience for families with small children. After all, the most important thing is that the bathroom is not only aesthetic and elegant, but also comfortable and functional.
