Small bathrooms: practical fitting solutions

Petite salle de bain contemporaine avec meuble sur mesure

In a small bath, every inch counts. On the coast of the var between Bormes-les-Mimosas and Le Lavandou, residence apartments, townhouses and villas are often of bathrooms compact, sometimes to the volumes atypical. The goal is not to add as many elements as possible, but choose solutions tailored to the piece in order to preserve the storage, movement and comfort.

Start by analyzing volumes

Before choosing the furniture, it is important to identify the constraints of the room : size, location of the door, window, water supply and traffic areas. In Intarsia, each project begins with a statement of measures specific place, in order to determine where to place the main elements without needlessly clutter up the space.

Prefer a vanity unit on measurement

A vanity unit standard may leave unused space or, on the contrary, being too imposing. The custom-allows you to precisely tailor its width, depth and height of the available configuration around a beam, under a low ceiling, or in a niche.

It can also combine multiple functions in a single volume : sinks, drawers, storage of the machine or open niches.

Exploit the walls in height

When the floor space is limited, the walls become particularly valuable. Narrow columns, storage hanging or furniture of any height increase storage capacity without reducing the traffic.

Integrate storage discreet

Recesses, drawers and deep storage behind mirror make it easy to keep everyday products accessible while limiting the visible objects. This is especially useful in a secondary home or a rental, where towels, sunscreen products and affairs of beach must find their place without cluttering up the room. A space visually more ordered seems to be also bigger.

Choose materials consistent and adapted to the humidity

In a small room, limit the number of materials and colours help to create a sense of unity. Facades, vanity and coatings can be coordinated to avoid a composition too fragmented.

Near the sea, the choice of materials for the life of the furniture : the salt air and moisture reduce the signs, chants, and hardware. Of resistant finishes and a meticulous workmanship make all the difference in the time.

Heal the lighting

Well balanced lighting enhances the comfort and gives more depth to the piece. The functional lighting around the mirror may be completed by the sources integrated into furniture or niches.

Do not neglect the details

Handles, fittings, profiles and finishes are having a major impact in a small space. Consistent choices keep reading simple and elegant.

Transform a constraint in project

A small bathroom can offer all the necessary comfort when she's thinking in every detail. Intarsia designs furniture and cabinets are adapted to the exact dimensions of each procedure, to Bormes-les-Mimosas, le Lavandou, and in the neighbouring communes of the Var.
