Interior Design Tips

bathroomIt is necessary to think over what furniture will stand in a bathroom before repairing in a bathroom, considering the sizes of all objects at the same time. The size of the bathroom or shower will affect the size of both the washing machine and the sink. Therefore, you need to find a combination of home decoration in which they fit in a small room in Khrushchev and match the style.

In favor of a washing machine with a large load, you often have to abandon the bathroom and install a shower. On the one hand, it takes up little space, on the other hand, there is inconvenience during hand washing, as well as while bathing young children. Therefore, before choosing a bath or a cabin, you need to weigh the pros and cons.

When placing washing machine under the sink, choose small models. So you avoid the inconvenience associated with washing.To save space, a wall-mounted sink will help, a place under which can be reserved for a cabinet with washing accessories.

A small bathroom should not be overwhelmed with furniture. Just one small wall cabinet and shelf. The shelf can be straight or angular. Shelves made of glass or chromed metal do not burden the space.

Important! To place all the interior items, make a drawing that takes into account the dimensions of all the objects, including the bathroom, cars, sinks. This will help to create a harmonious interior and room design in Khrushchev.
