Home design plays a big role in a small full bathroom because of how much this type of bathroom needs to offer in a limited amount of space. A small full bath is unique in that all fixtures will be laid out close to each other. The key to designing a functional small bath is to be thoughtful about the flow throughout the room.
To make any small bathroom appear bigger, paint the walls a light and bright color like white, gray, or beige. If you want to accent the walls, stick to techniques like a half wall, wall art, floating shelves, or shiplap paneling instead of a bold accent color. A small full bath can look more spacious with large floor tiles, but mosaic tiles, herringbone or hexagon patterns, and staggered tile showers can also help add visual interest. Here are some small full bathroom ideas to get you thinking about maximizing your space.
