Six ideas for more storage space in the bathroom 

Clever ideas to make your bathroom more functional and to create a relaxed, tidy, feel-good space in your home.
These are our six tips and ideas for more storage space in the bathroom:

1. Install a washbasin cabinet

Don’t leave the space under the washbasin unused! A cabinet under the washbasin can create additional storage space very easily, especially in small bathrooms. Towels, toilet paper, hairdryers, shaving utensils and cosmetics can be stored quickly and neatly in the cabinet beneath the basin.

Washbasin cabinets are available with open shelves or drawers. The Geberit ONE, Geberit iCon and Geberit VariForm bathroom series have space-saving drain technology that replaces the conventional trap cutout in the washbasin cabinet – while also providing more depth in the drawer and therefore more storage space.

2. Mirror cabinet with storage space

A mirror cabinet is the perfect solution for more storage space in the bathroom. In small bathrooms in particular, a mirror cabinet visually enlarges the room – and provides valuable shelf space for toothbrushes, cosmetics, care products and everyday essentials without taking up additional space.

A mirror cabinet elegantly integrated into the wall offers even more storage space in a small area than a model mounted on the wall. In any case, a mirror cabinet is a real all-rounder.

Mirror cabinets from the Geberit ONE bathroom series are available with two or three mirrored doors. In addition to practical storage space inside, they glow with the clever lighting concept, Geberit ComfortLight.

In addition to the light at the washbasin area, the mirror cabinet can be used to control other light sources in the room: the ideal solution for harmonious bathroom lighting.

3. Storage boxes & organisation systems

What’s inside matters too! Bathroom essentials can be neatly stowed away in storage boxes and organisers in the drawer. For the Geberit ONE, Geberit Acanto and Geberit iCon bathroom series, there is a modular organisation system with bamboo- and lava-coloured insert compartments. The modular sets are optimised for every drawer width and are available as options.

A special extra for your bathroom design The magnetic board with minimalist storage boxes from Geberit ensures that bathroom products are always to hand.

4. Tall cabinets and bathroom shelves create space

A tall cabinet or high-level cabinet creates additional storage space in the bathroom without taking up too much space. Perfect for towels, care products and bathroom essentials, it ensures good organisation and a tidy look. This marvellous space-saver can be installed on the wall above the WC, next to the washbasin or in niches.

Whether you are looking for bathroom furniture in wood, a cabinet in black matt or trendy lava, or you prefer light shades, make sure the products are made of high-quality materials with excellent workmanship and timeless elegance, so you can enjoy your bathroom furnishings for many years to come.

5. Walk-in shower: space-saving and modern

A walk-in shower combines minimalist design with space-saving elegance. Thanks to the open-plan design, the bathroom appears larger and airier, while the shower’s barrier-free access ensures comfort.

Three arguments in favour of a floor-even shower:

  1. Airy feeling of space: Transparent glass surfaces make the bathroom appear more open and larger.
  2. Space-saving design: perfect for bathroom niches or tight spaces, and customisable to the size of the room.
  3. Easy to clean: fewer joints, no doors or handles – for minimal cleaning effort.

6. Hooks for better organisation

Small feature, big impact – and cost-effective too: hooks are a simple but effective solution for creating more storage space, even in a small bathroom.

Whether on the wall, behind the door or in the bathroom cabinet – they keep towels, bathrobes or even nail scissors within easy reach without taking up valuable shelf space.

And another tip for the storage of small items: A magnetic strip or storage boxes keep scissors, nail clippers, hair clips or tweezers within easy reach.
