But difficult repair should be considered not as a tragedy but as a platform for creativity, the ability to implement all the ideas and dreams. Competent design of the bathroom 4 sq m allows the combination of style and functionality, but you must adhere to a number of specific design rules, allowing to achieve, if not real, at least visually expand space: color, illumination. Picking up the necessary equipment, stylish fittings, taking into account the technical difficulties, the possibility of using constructive association, you will understand that the four square is not so little to achieve the current level comfort.

The choice of materials

Most importantly, how to begin design of the bathroom - wall decoration. The material used is required to have only one important characteristic - moisture resistance.

Consider the popular modification finish in terms of financial costs:

• Water-resistant paint. Most budget, but it will have to spend on the alignment of surfaces to achieve perfect staining. Better looking matte texture. Many brands offer a complete collection of colors that best complement each other.

• Agglomerate. The novelty of superior quality even ceramic in terms of durability and abrasion. Available in a palette of various plates, individual collections contain inclusions and aventurine mosaic, which increases the cost, but expands the possibilities of design solutions.
• Marble. This classic material allows the bathroom look luxurious and presentable. It can be used for decorating individual partial elements.

Modern design solutions can combine several types of finishes, at the same time saving money. The main rule - security, which will help to comply with non-slip floor that is taken into account in the collections of ready-made ceramics.

Color spectrum

No matter how trite, but the bathroom in the 4th quarter. meter design involves primarily light shades. Fans of bright, flashy colors (eg, dark red) will have to do accents on a gentle, air background that would make even less visually your bathroom than it is in reality.

But with the help of catchy inclusions can be given individual stylishness. Help revive the monotony bright borders, screens. Using the mosaic, even small inserts from it, will make the interior is very impressive.

Mosaic partition (about 1 m wide and 1.5 m high) for the separation zone and the toilet pomyvochnaya zone becomes a real decoration. For fans of unconventional solutions invented porcelain with photo printing. One such panel with a panorama of the city, wildlife, can make the bathroom more volume, add prospects.

A number of methods based on tsvetoforme, will make the "wet zone" visually more spacious, add harmony:

• vertical walls decorative patterns;
• horizontal rectangular tile layout;
• Color tones walls into several lighter than the floor covering;
• contrasting floor tiles laid diagonally staggered.

The right color combination makes the room becomes more comfortable. Although the priority of classic white, blue, beige, used to enhance the tone of a combination of violet and purple, pink and light green, lemon and chocolate. Topical considered azure tone with purple highlights.

Lighting

Project design bathroom 4 m2 forced to give up a single light source located in the middle, otherwise the corners will remain in the shadows. In addition to improving visualization, should take into account the needs of family members. Variety of backlight scenario, it is possible to create an atmosphere appropriate mood and objectives.

The soft, subdued light in the evening to create an atmosphere of tranquility while taking water treatments. Sink area requires an alternative illumination without blinding the eyes. For optimum illumination lamps are symmetrically on either side of the mirror. Do not install the lamp cold light - ideal white light lamps range 4300 - 5000 K.

Tip: All the lamps can be divided into groups. Possibility to include appliances, depending on the need - convenient and financially economical.

Correct lighting mirrors advantageously maintained. If you do not bother a large number of mirrors, the fully mirrored wall or ceiling - the most effective and modern way to improve the space. There is a special mirror tiles, which are very fond of the designers used to enhance lighting conditions. Its drawback - very fragile and extremely difficult to clean. Another interesting custom version - direct replacement for conventional doors on sliding partitions from the inner surface of the mirror.

Bold, but very effective step is to use decorative lighting. Backlight baseboards and furniture was made possible by the emergence of LED strips, the use of which is not much impact on the budget.

Shower Cabin: pros and cons

Quite difficult to enter into the interior of the bath itself. Some corners may be left unused, to fall out of the general scheme. Available versions can be considered the acquisition of non-standard or beveled corner forms, freeing space for a washing machine or cabinet.

And you can take the crucial decision on its replacement shower with its own advantages:

• Compactness. For combined bathroom opens the possibility of a compact layout of essential items: an additional cabinet, washing machine.
• Functionality. Even low-end models can be combined with many other main function, additionally you will get useful devices and functions, which is devoid of the usual bath: rain shower, radio, mobile telephony, a steam bath, an aromatherapy, infrared heating, chromotherapy.
• The presence of a number of deep-pan models 30-45 cm. If small children, it is very practical in the family. To overcome the problem without a high ledge, you can stick the outer level.

The only negative - the inability to lie down, as in a normal bath. Modern showers are able to change the interior of a bathroom whether it is combined with a toilet or not. The variety of forms allows to choose a suitable for you.

Shape shower	Optimal dimensions (length * width) cm
rectangular	90*70, 100*80
square	80*80, 90*90, 100*100
Asymmetric corner with a smooth contour	110*80, 110*85
corner polyhedron	80*80, 100*85
Angle "quadrant"	80*80, 90*90, 95*95, 98*98
semicircular	80*80, 90*90, 95*95
round	90*110

Shower with frosted glass much undemanding to care for her not visible limescale deposits, which appears in the operation.

Size matters

The principle of minimalism in interior solutions welcome small bathroom, and better if it will touch all aspects, ranging from plumbing and finishing with decoration. Every square meter of the area should be involved. There are several proven solutions that leave enough space for comfortable use.

In order not to destroy the unity of style there is a reception - for doors, understudy cabinet (similar to cabinet under the sink) hides the location of a washing machine. Now there are so compact shell-sinks that easily fit beneath a conventional washing machine, and, optionally, to purchase a car with a top-loading clothes (although this option is also relevant due to saving space when opening the boot hatch).

Toilet with the installation looks very carefully without weighing space. This approach will save space; hinged design of the toilet, the rest of the furniture will ease the complexity of cleaning. The space under the bath, you can isolate the screen, used as an additional cabinet for the storage of household chemicals. To spend sparingly area, choose a plumber and furniture miniature format. Number of decor, too, should be kept to a minimum - just leave the details that can effectively highlight the personality.

unbanal decor

If the interior is devoid of decorative elements, the situation is becoming boring and monotonous and mundane. A real pleasure to be in the beautiful bathroom with harmonious color and style items and accessories.

Eco-style: using grass-green elements (green towels, soap dish in the form of flowers). A variety of mats, pleasant and helpful, will underline this style: the mat made of natural pebbles or mat using natural plants. Minimalism: austere metal accessories, silver color, luxury combined with snow-white sanitary ware.

Oilcloth curtains - is the last century, instead hang beautiful cloth with special impregnation. Neat piles of towels on the open shelf organized by the Association to the spa.
There steel mixers with colored pens; of a variety of colors can be offered to choose one that will support the basic tone or play on the contrast. Accessories made of yellow metal (soap holder, metal basket for towels) add shine and perfectly combined with monochrome surfaces cool colors. Special mood give it detail: Wicker Laundry baskets; candles; plants, love high humidity.

Designers are increasingly using decor, typical decoration of residential areas. A bouquet of flowers on a shelf or the space behind the sink - fresh, stylish solution. It is considered good practice to complement the design of furniture - a special stool, a chair with a high back. Great importance is given to fittings and device, which are required to meet the chosen style. Faucets, cabinets knobs, hangers, hooks, soap dishes should generate a sense of well-groomed, convenience and impeccable design. We need to strive for harmony between the decorative elements and the overall design.

Fashion trends

Every year there are more inspiring innovations in the design of shared bathrooms - the main decoration becomes plumbing. In the style of hi-tech this bill bowl sinks mounted on the tabletop console, the ability to attract the attention of all. Of the new products may be mentioned a transparent shell, and a command table top, which will give the interior small additional lightness. Robotic toilet with bidet cover - another interesting novelty. Such innovative plumbing saves space, it becomes a stylistic center of personal hygiene facilities.

Firmly occupied the position of gray, which is confirmed by a new collection of tiles. Velvety gray color contrasts harmoniously with complex shades (purple, terracotta, emerald, amber).
The combination of tiles black with quartz - a favorite of design ideas. The floor and the bottom of the walls in black, the ceiling and upper walls - white. There are other possible combinations of black and white, diluted wood or simulated wood materials - hit in 2017. This technique is suitable for bathroom design in the 4 square meters, visually increasing the height of the ceilings.

Of the new products it is worth noting 3D wall-tile, due to the play of light and shadow gives the surface relief and depth. Widespread self-leveling floor with multiple versions of the bubbling sea water up to the flower meadow.

technical details

When planning the upcoming repairs, you must pre-create the technical design, especially if plans include moving plumbing with the replacement of water and sewer pipes. At the initial stage it is important to consider all aspects, not to be in the process of repair in an unpleasant situation.

The bathroom design is easier to pick up under certain technical conditions, and not vice versa. It is necessary to consider the ventilation system, especially when choosing the installation of the shower enclosure with a closed top. If it remains bath, decorative screen close communication. Water supply wiring concealed behind the panel, leaving access for inspection without thereby violating the uniform style of the room. Observe the regulations when installing the toilet: the distance to the wall should be at least 15-25 cm.

Achieving dreams

When considering the design project, the main thing that you should pay attention to is the number of family members and the individual needs of everyone, because more than one room in the house, except maybe the kitchen, not bears the functional load as much as the combined bathroom.
Despite the fairly minimalistic size of 4 square meters, you do not have to give up the additional cabinet or sink thanks to the advice of designers, supported by practice. Modern solutions will not only create a stylish room, but also to transform the bathroom into a cozy living area and an object of pride.
