Unfortunately, small bathrooms often lead to cramped-feeling experiences for residents of a home and guests alike and generally lead to design choices that favor function over beauty. Luckily, though, that doesn’t need to be the case.

When possible, choose simple colors and try to keep the color uniform throughout your design choices.   Choose Light Colors Another way to…
