The company keeps up with the times, following the habits and trends of modern life, focusing on consumers-owners of small apartments and studios. Freedom of style and simplicity of the designs are very relevant in the interior design of small bathrooms.

One of the basic principles of the Scandinavian-style bathroom from IKEA is open free space. The smaller the area of ​​the room, the less should be the pieces of furniture and decor. The washbasin cabinets are mounted and have a glossy surface that reflects light, thereby increasing the space of the room. The more open shelves, the better.The shelves are functional and at the same time create a feeling of lightness and weightlessness, if they are not overloaded with bathroom amenities and cosmetics. Became popular wooden shelves, narrow canisters, wicker laundry baskets.

All models of furniture from IKEA are quite practical. High narrow canisters are gaining popularity, in which you can put both small items and bulk bottles with household chemicals. Most often, such single-leaf canisters, with a deaf or mirror facade. Most models are made of chipboard, but there are also structures made of natural wood.

In other words, the furniture from the IKEA collections is universal. One object carries several purposes: a mirror plus a cabinet above the sink, a foam partition between the bath and toilet areas in the combined bathroom, a chair with a back for drying towels, and so on.
