Living in a tiny house doesn’t mean sacrificing comfort—especially when it comes to your bathroom. With the right design, even the smallest space can include both a tub and a shower. This compact design gallery offers inspiration, layouts, and smart solutions for stylish, efficient tiny house bathrooms.
Bathroom Ideas for Tiny Living
- Compact Fixtures: Opt for smaller tubs, corner sinks, and wall-mounted toilets.
- Multi-functional Designs: Use combined tub and shower setups to save space.
- Vertical Storage: Maximize wall height with shelves, hanging baskets, and built-in cabinets.
Choosing Between Shower, Tub, or Both
- Shower-Only: Ideal for ultra-compact layouts where every inch matters.
- Tub-Only: Perfect for those who prioritize relaxation—use a Japanese-style soaking tub.
