Furnishing our... teeny tiny toilet
We changed the entrance to our tiny common toilet, which was originally on the left, now to the right. This was because our kitchen doesn't quite have a service yard and we wanted to place our washing machine closer to the window, tucked away. Since half of it has become so narrow, we could only go with the smallest possible basin that we found at modeste, a bath fitting shop along Beach Road. This is as basic as it gets...
Living with a very small toilet space has taught me some invaluable lessons in space optimization and design simplicity. When dealing with compact areas like a teeny tiny toilet, every inch counts. Moving the entrance from the left to the right, as done here, is a clever way to better utilize adjacent rooms, such as placing the washing machine near a window to hide it while allowing proper ventilation. One thing I’ve found essential in such spaces is to choose fixtures that are not only compact but also visually light to keep the room feeling less cramped. The use of a small basin, like the one found at Modeste on Beach Road, reflects this balance well. It’s important to measure the narrowest part of the room carefully and select products specifically designed for small spaces. I also resonate with the Japandi style mentioned in this post—it’s a perfect fit for small bathrooms because it embraces simplicity and natural elements without clutter. Using Wabi-Sabi principles encourages appreciating imperfections and minimalism, helping create a tranquil, functional environment. If you’re furnishing a petite toilet, I recommend installing wall-mounted shelves or hooks to free up floor space and choosing light or neutral color palettes to expand the visual sense of openness. Good natural lighting near features like a washing machine also reduces the feeling of confinement. In my experience, these thoughtful adjustments can transform even the tiniest bathrooms into efficient and pleasant spaces, proving that limited size doesn't mean compromising on style or convenience.
