When you’re dealing with a small bathroom, luxury might not be the first word that comes to mind but it should be. With thoughtful design, premium materials, and the right fixtures, even the most compact space can rival a 5-star hotel suite.
We work with some of the world’s most respected designer bathroom brands including Hansgrohe, TOTO, Victoria + Albert, KEUCO, and Dansani who all excel at blending form, function, and indulgence into beautifully compact packages.
Here are luxurious design ideas to help you turn your small bathroom into something truly special.
Anchor the Space with a Statement Fixture
Even in small spaces, one eye-catching piece can completely transform the room. A beautiful freestanding bath, a sculptural basin, or a bold vanity becomes the visual centrepiece and sets the tone for the entire design.
Product Suggestions
Victoria + Albert Barcelona 2 freestanding bath perfectly proportioned for compact spaces without compromising on depth or comfort. Its quarry cast stone finish feels silky and retains heat, making every soak feel indulgent.
KEUCO Edition 11 wall mounted basin sleek, space saving, and striking in minimalist bathrooms.
Design Tip: Position your standout piece where it naturally draws the eye ideally opposite the door or in line with the vanity mirror to enhance impact.
Create a Luxurious Shower Experience
You don’t need a massive walk in to enjoy a luxury shower. Even in a small enclosure or corner, the right fixtures can enhance your daily routine into a spa like experience.
Product Suggestions
Hansgrohe Raindance E 300 AIR this shower head uses air-infusion technology to create a voluminous, soft rain spray that feels incredibly indulgent. Its large 300mm diameter delivers full coverage, making every shower feel like a calming, high-end experience.
Pair it with a slim thermostatic mixer to keep controls simple and elegant.
Design Tip: Choose fixtures in finishes like matte black or brushed brass to add a contemporary edge without overwhelming the space.

Use Lighting to Add Drama and Function
Lighting is one of the most powerful tools in a small bathroom. It enhances space, brings out the beauty of materials, and helps you transition the room from practical to spa-like at the touch of a button.
In luxury bathrooms, lighting isn’t just functional it’s part of the design language. Clean lines, soft glows, and high-tech features can completely elevate the look and feel of the space.
Product Suggestions
KEUCO Royal Modular 2.0 Mirror Cabinet this elegant mirror solution combines warm, dimmable LED perimeter lighting with built-in storage and a demister function, making it ideal for both everyday grooming and ambient mood-setting.
Dansani Mido+ Repeat Mirror this is a slim-profile mirror with integrated horizontal light fields at the top and sides, casting soft, glare-free illumination that’s perfect for grooming and setting the tone in the room.
Design Tip: Layer your lighting with intention. Use ambient lighting overhead, task lighting at the mirror, and subtle accents (like wall sconces) to eliminate shadows and enhance spatial depth.
