How to Decorate a Small Bathroom: Avoid These Mistakes

Almost every person dreams of a large and comfortable bathroom.

But, unfortunately, not all of our dreams are destined to come true, and often in practice it turns out that our bathroom is not able to accommodate everything at once (for example, to place a bath and a shower at the same time).

Europeans approach this issue more progressively, says Yulia Tychino .

In a small bathroom, they simply install a shower cabin instead of the usual bathtub.

This option is considered optimal, since the shower is used much more often, and bathroom renovations are carried out based on this.

But most Russians cannot imagine their life without taking water procedures in the bath, and therefore try to look for suitable options.

An excellent solution to this situation could be the "two in one" design technique - a unique tandem of a bath + shower. And there could be several such options.

Combined systems

This system appeared only a few years ago and became an ingenious solution to the problem.

Among the combined systems there are both compact models and larger and more prestigious ones.

The idea of installing a shower cabin in a whirlpool bath is considered very interesting and original. This is not just a combination of a bath and a shower, but a fundamentally new solution that combines ease of installation and ease of maintenance.

It is worth noting that the unique tandem of a bath and shower is not a cheap pleasure. But by installing such a multifunctional plumbing complex, you combine both the advantages of a hydromassage bath and the conveniences associated with using a shower.

And some models of the system are designed in such a way that they can allow two people to take water procedures at the same time.

Among the combined systems, there are those that have a minimum of functions, and those that are equipped with the maximum set of various functions. Boxes equipped to the minimum have in their arsenal a regular hydromassage bath, a simple shower closed by a curtain, a mirror and several shelves intended for toiletries.

If you need a more budget-friendly combi-system, you can choose a model in which the bath will not have a hydromassage. Many companies, trying to find the ideal option for a unique bath + shower tandem, offer a choice of different models, where the shower cabin can have both sliding partitions and regular curtains.

Shower curtains

Today, many consumers have special requirements for shower cabins - the presence of vertical massage.

What to do if you only have a bathtub and no space for a shower cabin? How to make sure that the bathtub, in addition to everything else, also acquires all the advantages of a shower system?

In this case, we can advise you to purchase special sliding or folding glass curtains.

In addition, various manufacturing companies offer other options: overalls - frameless screens on hinges that can rotate 180 and are made of safety glass; folding frameless screens that can completely transform the entire bathtub into a shower stall.

And finally...

In some cases, experts suggest replacing regular reclining bathtubs with sitting ones, and installing shower stalls nearby.

To save space, you can use bathtubs of an "irregular" shape - with beveled or cut corners.

An interesting option could be a bathtub from which a part - a fragment - is removed and a unique tray with curtains is installed in its place.
