How to Make a Narrow Bathroom Work

Use a long room well by controlling furniture depth, door movement and the view towards the far wall.

01

Protect the walkway

Furniture depth matters more in a narrow room. A few centimetres saved at the vanity can make movement more comfortable.

02

Use the end of the room

A shower or bath across the far wall can create a natural destination and avoid breaking the long side walls.

03

Control the floor pattern

A continuous or lengthwise floor line can make the layout feel intentional.

04

Avoid too many projections

Radiators, shelves and separate cabinets can gradually squeeze the walkway. Combine functions where possible.
