Americans may be spending less time on housework, but that’s probably not much consolation when you’re scrubbing the toilet for the third time in a week. Meanwhile, hours spent working are taking more of our time, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ American Time Use Survey. Factor in other time demands like taking care of the kids, your in-laws, your spouse and yourself, and it’s easy to see why products that improve cleanability are gaining ground in bathroom design.
Key Takeaways:
- A bathroom doesn’t need to be vast to feel comfortable, soothing, and elegantly efficient. A smaller space just requires some well-planned storage options and a clean, welcoming decor.
- Take a squeegee to shower doors after you’ve turned off the water. Removing that moisture right away will discourage the growth of mildew and keep the glass free of spots.
- These design tricks fit the bill on both fronts. They offer smart ways to maximize space, and they do it with uncluttered.
