Small Bathroom Ideas: Designing Bathrooms for Smaller Homes

People are definitely looking for small bathroom ideas, judging by the fact that tens of thousands of people are searching for that term each month. Does that mean homes and therefore bathrooms getting smaller? You’d think so, but it depends on whom you ask. It’s easy to do a Google search and find headlines declaring both. Some articles say Americans are demanding smaller houses while others claim homes are about to be upsized. With that kind of disconnect, no one can say for sure.

What we can say for sure is people are looking for small bathroom ideas. In addition, we can safely predict there will be some kind of trend toward smaller homes (and therefore bathrooms) because we have record numbers of baby boomers set to retire, and many of them will want to downsize to smaller, easier-to-care-for homes. We also have Millennials who can’t afford a big house, and a movement among Americans who are tired of the expense and hassle of maintaining a big house and long for something more, or they’re tired of long commutes and want to buy a smaller townhouse closer to work.

All of those facts add up to one sure thing: More of us will probably be looking for small bathroom ideas in the near future.
