How to use space in a small bathroom
Many of our citizens live in five- and nine-storey apartment buildings, which, unfortunately, cannot boast of a large square of bathrooms. If several people huddle in an apartment with such a bathroom, it is obvious that a large bathroom simply steals a lot of space that could be used with greater benefit.
The situation can fix shower room. The cabin occupies a place in the vertical plane, so there is more useful space in the room. There you can put a washing machine, washbasin, sink. So it's a really good solution.
So, if you have already decided to remove the bathroom and put a cabin, you can buy a ready-made shower stall or make repairs on your own.
First option Sounds simpler and better. However, purchased cabins have a lot of negative aspects: inflated price, fragility of materials, limited choice of sizes. If everything is clear with the price (although it would seem how much a few meters of glass and shower sets can cost), then the materials and the inability to choose the size for yourself cause wild doubt.
Glass itself is a very fragile material. And slippery, especially when in contact with water. Together, this creates a traumatic tandem. And the impossibility of buying a non-standard size shower at once sweeps away all buyers who have too low ceiling height.
Make a booth with your own handsOf course, longer and more physically difficult. But it is cheaper for money and you can always pick up materials “for yourself”. For example, some craftsmen manage to make shower booths out of brick. Thus, space is saved, and the design is durable and exactly the size of the customer.

Of course, such decisions should be performed by a master of his craft, and the final result should be processed by special means that prevent the flow of water and the appearance of a fungus in the bathroom. Moreover, such a cabin can be very successfully painted so that it visually expands the area of the room.
The glass door is perhaps the most expensive part in such a booth. You need to buy it in the store or, if desired, make it to order.
Another tricky solution to save space is a vertical load washing machine. Such devices are much more compact than other washing machines. This will save you even more space.
In the vacant place between the wall and the machine, you can put a rollout basket. It would be nice to load it with household chemicals, gels and powders. So, keep your cleaning products there, because

- The smell of chemistry will not spread throughout the room.
- You shower more often than you wash, so the powders can wait.
