Ask a Pro Q&A – Revamp Your Bathroom with a Modern Touch: See which look is cleaning up in style

Do you have a small bathroom and no ideas for how to spruce it up? Even compact bathrooms can benefit from this refresh. Our interior design pro, Jennifer Adams, gives you tips to go from small and cluttered to a streamlined sanctuary.

Question: I am looking for ideas to remodel a small master bathroom. Absolutely willing to look at this as a clean slate – any modern, trendy suggestions would be wonderful!

As luck would have it, the most modern, trendy look for bathrooms right now is a clean slate! Create a relaxing, spa-like atmosphere with airy whites, soft grays, open spaces, clutter-free surfaces and room to move.

Choose a pedestal sink or a sleek, wall-hung vanity for a more spacious feel, enhanced by beautiful storage baskets. Use the biggest mirror possible and put lighting on dimmer switches to control the brightness. Consider a roomy shower with clear glass doors or a simple shower curtain instead of a standard tub/shower combo. Add a skylight or window, especially if there is no natural light.
