  1. Combine Bathroom and Laundry Room

Want to kill two birds with one stone? Combining your bathroom and laundry room makes a lot of sense, especially when you’re creating a tiny house.

You’ll typically be taking off your clothes in the bathroom, so having the washing machine right there to throw them into is really handy and removes the need for a bulky washing basket.

You’ll also be able to keep all the plumbing in one place, which should cut down on costs.

Many tiny homes feature a washing machine beneath the bathroom counter, making use of what would otherwise be dead space.

  1. Create a Walk-In Shower

When you don’t have much space to play with, it makes no sense for your shower to be in a whole separate cubicle. Instead, create a walk-in shower that opens up the room and makes it feel larger.

If you want to go a step further, turn the entire bathroom into a wet room.

Don’t want to have your sink and toilet splashed with water while you shower? There are ways around this – you just need to position the showerhead cleverly.

  1. Squeeze in a Small Floating Sink

Don’t have room for a full-size sink? Opt for a narrow, floating sink instead, and slot it into any space you can find. All you really need is room for a tap and a small drain, so the actual sink can be tiny.

Just be ready to aim well when you brush your teeth!

  1. Go for a Rustic Look with Wooden Walls

Many tiny homes are designed to feel as cozy as possible. Extend the rustic vibes to your bathroom by securing wooden planks to the walls, then sealing properly to prevent water damage.

Your bathroom doesn’t have to be a cold, white room!

  1. Consider Stainless Steel Bathroom Accessories

There’s a reason that stainless steel is used for outdoor fixtures— it’s incredibly durable and resistant to water damage.

Choosing stainless steel for your sink and accessories helps create a cohesive look that makes the room feel less cluttered. When you’re working with a small space, it makes sense to keep the range of colors and materials small, or the room will look chaotic.

Stainless steel is classic, timeless, and practical, so it’s an ideal choice.

But remember, when designing your tiny house bathroom, stay focused on what feels right for you, from a soaking tub to decor choices, like brightly colored curtains.
