The Space-Saving Guide

Is your attached bathroom feeling a bit claustrophobic?

In modern apartment complexes across Dhaka, bedroom sizes are decent, but bathrooms are often getting squeezed into tighter spaces. A cramped bathroom can feel dark and stressful—but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

You don’t need to knock down walls to create more space. You just need to trick the eye. By choosing the right sanitary ware, you can make a 30 sq. ft. bathroom feel like it’s 50 sq. ft.

Here are 3 designer-approved tricks using Harrington products to maximize your square footage.

1. The “Floating” Floor Trick (Go Wall-Hung)

The human eye judges the size of a room by how much floor area it can see. If a bulky commode is bolted to the floor, it breaks your visual line and makes the room feel smaller.

• The Solution: Install a Harrington Wall-Hung Commode.
• Why it works: Because the commode is mounted on the wall and “floats” above the ground, you can see the tiles extending underneath it. This unbroken floor view creates an illusion of openness.
• Bonus: It makes cleaning infinitely easier—no more dust gathering around the base of the toilet!

2. Smart Basins for Narrow Spaces

In a narrow rectangular washroom, a standard cabinet or pedestal basin can block the walkway, making it hard to move around.

• Option A: The Wall-Hung Basin. For the smallest “powder rooms” or guest baths, ditch the counter entirely. A sleek Harrington Wall-Hung Basin takes up zero floor space and offers a clean, minimalist look.
• Option B: The Semi-Counter Basin. Do you need storage but lack space? A Semi-Counter Basin is the perfect hybrid. It allows you to build a very slim cabinet (just 10-12 inches deep) to hide your toiletries, while the basin itself extends out slightly so you can wash comfortably.

3. Embrace the “High-Gloss” Reflection

Light is your best friend in a small room. Dark colors absorb light and shrink the space, while bright surfaces reflect it.

• The Harrington Finish: Our products are famous for their Premium High-Gloss White Glaze.
• The Effect: When you use our bright white ceramics, they act like mirrors, bouncing light from your bulbs around the room. This brightness makes the air feel fresher and the walls feel further apart.
• Design Tip: Pair your white Harrington sanitary ware with a large mirror and light-colored wall tiles for the ultimate “airy” effect.

Summary: Big Style for Small Spaces

A small bathroom doesn’t mean you have to compromise on luxury. In fact, compact spaces often look the most elegant when designed correctly.

• Lift it off the floor (Wall-Hung Commode).
• Slim it down (Wall-Hung or Semi-Counter Basin).
• Keep it bright (High-Gloss Finish).
