If you choose the layout of dry and wet areas, you must separate the washbasin, bathroom, passage from the bathing area, and arrange the positions of washbasin and bathroom as reasonably as possible on the premise of ensuring the passage.
People in China always pay attention to the square living pattern, so people are accustomed to the horizontal and vertical thinking mode, thinking that a row against the wall can make the space compact, but often ignore the design of the corner of the room. In fact, reasonable planning of corner space can not only exert its maximum utilization value, but also enhance the artistry of the whole home environment. Corner is the most difficult place to walk through, which is also the most suitable place to arrange some functional areas, such as basins, bathrooms, lockers and so on.
Experts remind:
Making good use of the corner can increase the sense of space in the bathroom and make it look brighter. This needs to break the usual thinking, especially the bathroom with a particularly small area. For example, the washbasin and toilet that are usually arranged in parallel can be placed in the diagonal position of the bathroom, and the space in the middle can be used for shower. The advantage of this arrangement is that it can not only increase the sense of visual space, but also increase the comfort of shower. As for the dry-wet partition, it is difficult to achieve complete dry-wet partition with this arrangement, but partial dry-wet partition can be achieved by installing a circular shower curtain.
Strengthening lighting and using light skillfully can change the sense of space very well. Bright lighting can make people feel the improvement of space, while dim lighting can make people feel that the space is narrow and uncomfortable. In particular, the lighting of old houses is usually not very good, some are not oriented well, the windows are narrow and the natural lighting is not good. Therefore, to create a sense of space in the bathroom, we must first start with lighting.
Experts remind:
It is difficult to change the window opening of the bathroom, so we can consider enhancing indoor lighting. For example, we can use frosted glass, paint glass, single-sided glass and other glass materials to partition and push the door between the bathroom and other indoor spaces, which can not only save space, but also improve the lighting of the bathroom, killing two birds with one stone.
"Addition and subtraction" of small toilets
In the face of the choice of facilities for small toilets, it is still very famous to master the "addition and subtraction" in an all-round way, which facilities should occupy less space and which should be added. It is to minimize the floor space of facilities and reduce the sense of space occupation on the premise of satisfying the use. Therefore, toilets, washbasins and shower taps are the most suitable facilities for subtraction.
Toilet:
The most common toilets on the market are divided into two types: integral and split. Generally speaking, the whole bathroom is shorter than the main body, but it covers a larger area, so choosing a split bathroom in a small space can save land. The design of hidden water tank can save at least 20 cm distance. Many brands of toilets are only 70 cm long, and the absolute "slimming" figure has become an ideal choice for small-sized toilets.
Wash basin:
There are washbasins of all shapes and sizes, such as the corner basin just installed in the corner, square, oval and round base wall-mounted, and semi-hidden ones are more popular recently. Generally, it is not inclined to install column basin, because the column space below can hardly be used, which is equal to waste. Unless it is wrapped in a bathroom cabinet, the meaning of the column basin will be lost. It is better to buy a basin on a narrow table, save money and buy a large cabinet under the stage to make full use of the space.
