With the bathroom, we recommend nailing the necessities first, then spend your remaining budget on little luxuries if you can. The basic features can be broken down into:
No bathroom can be considered a bathroom without a toilet, and no modern toilet can be considered a toilet without a bidet. A built-in bidet with features such as a blow dryer or warm water can be game-changing, and add to the entire bathroom experience.
A pedestal or wall-hung sink is ideal for a small bathroom. Look for a model with a cabinet underneath for extra storage space. For easy maintenance, choose a ceramic sink and use metallic taps that are not coated—while matte black fixtures may look cool, they lose their appeal over time when it wears off and reveals patches of steel underneath
A shower enclosure saves space over a bathtub. Sliding doors are convenient in a compact bathroom. Multiple shower heads, including rain showers and handheld sprays, provide a luxurious experience. Thermostatic taps allow you to set your perfect temperature.
In order to have a standout bathroom, it’s important to prioritise high-quality essential fixtures like these before everything else, especially if you are on a budget. These are features you’ll be using daily for a long time, so it’s important to get them right the first time.
When renovating your bathroom, select high-quality, durable materials and fixtures that stand up to humidity and frequent use. Porcelain or ceramic tiles are ideal for floors and walls. If you want to incorporate wood into your design, for cabinetry or trimmings, ensure that it is moisture-resistant.
For sinks, porcelain, ceramic, or stone are great options. Undermount sinks seamlessly integrate into stone or solid-surface countertops. For faucets, choose a model with a brushed nickel, chrome, or similar finish that resists water spots and corrosion.
Moisture-resistant, anti-mould paint is a must for bathrooms. Semi-gloss or satin paints stand up well to humidity and can be easily wiped clean. Stick to a color palette of cool tones like pale blue, seafoam green or lavender for a calming vibe. If you want to make a statement, paint one accent wall in a bold color and keep the others neutral.
When it comes to a bathroom's look and feel, tile choice is key. Porcelain tiles in neutral, earthy tones are always a classic option for Singapore homes. Their durability and low maintenance make them perfect for high-traffic, high-humidity areas. For a pop of color, consider accent tiles - a strip of mosaic tiles along the mirror or a patterned tile insert in the shower recess.
For toilets, pick a model with strong flush performance to avoid clogs, such as those with wide flush valves and glazed trapways. Remember to be a water saver and get a dual-flush toilet, so you can choose between a full or partial flush to save water.
Chrome or nickel fixtures have a sleek, modern look that suits most styles. For small bathrooms, a wall-mounted faucet frees up counter space. A freestanding tub or oversized showerhead can make a bold statement. Choose fixtures with an aerator to reduce splashing.
Dimmable LED lighting helps to set the mood for any occasion on the toilet with ambient and task lighting. LEDs last for years and the warm glow complements the natural tones in stone and wood. Install an exhaust fan to reduce excess moisture - look for an Energy Star-rated model for efficiency..
A well-designed bathroom incorporates aesthetics and function. By choosing high-quality, durable materials and strategic storage solutions, your compact bathroom can be both beautiful and practical. Focusing on natural light, a neutral color palette and multi-purpose fixtures will make the space feel open, airy and uncluttered.
A medicine cabinet is a must to store all your daily essentials in one place. Look for a cabinet with adjustable shelves so you can configure it to suit your needs. Mount it at eye level for easy access and consider a cabinet with a mirror on the front—it opens up the space and allows you to do quick mirror checks.
Multiple drawers under the sink or vanity top provide concealed storage for everything from makeup to cleaning supplies. Opt for soft-close drawers which close slowly and quietly with just a gentle push. For small bathrooms, use vertical drawer units that make the most of limited wall space.
Open shelving is ideal for displaying decorative items or storing extra towels and linens. For a streamlined look, choose shelving the same length as your vanity top. Mount shelving a few inches above the countertop to prevent water damage. Stagger the shelves at different heights for visual interest.
