Compact bathrooms are an essential part of modern living – from city apartments and tiny houses to stylish guest toilets. While space is tight, the demand for comfort, functionality and design remains unchanged. With careful planning, smart products, and a clear design concept, even the smallest bathrooms can feel spacious and luxurious.
Washing area solutions
Asymmetric furniture washbasins with vanity tops at the side make the most of every inch. Matching vanity units with drawers and open shelves keep items tidy and close at hand. For narrow rooms, compact handrinse basins with vanity units offer a practical alternative. For those who prefer lightness, elegant metal consoles with integrated glass shelves and towel holders add style without bulk. Mirror cabinets provide storage exactly where it’s needed while keeping the look uncluttered.
Toilets that save space
Compact toilets with short projections are ideal for narrow bathrooms or guest toilets, offering comfort without taking up valuable floor area. Shower toilets save even more space by combining a toilet and bidet in one product, delivering hygienic cleaning with water in a slimline form.
Shower or bath – or both
A floor-flush shower with a glass partition opens the space visually and makes the bathroom feel bigger. Compact built-in bathtubs can be fitted into niches, blending seamlessly with the overall design. With the right layout, it’s possible to include both a shower and a bath without crowding the room.
Design for a feeling of space
An open, calm design can make a compact bathroom look and feel larger. Avoid visual breaks and treat the room as a single harmonious unit. Large tiles, continuous floor finishes and transparent glass screens enhance the effect. Light colours and reflective surfaces brighten the space, while clear lines, minimalist forms and discreet tones maintain a tranquil atmosphere.
From clever storage to space-saving sanitaryware, Duravit’s compact bathroom concepts prove that small rooms can deliver big on comfort, style and function.
