Step 1: Solve the real problems first (layout + daily routine)

Most bathrooms feel bad for a reason:

• Not enough counter space

• Storage that doesn’t fit real products

• A shower that’s cramped or dark

• A door that fights the vanity

• Lighting that makes everyone look exhausted

Start by mapping your routine:

• Two people getting ready at the same time? Consider dual sinks or separate prep zones.

• Need better flow? Repositioning the shower or toilet can create breathing room.

• Want a calmer space? Reduce visual clutter with recessed storage and clean lines.

Even a small layout change can make the bathroom feel twice as functional.
