Mirrors help open up the space. They reflect light around. Make the bathroom area feel less closed in. You can place mirrors above the sink or across walls. This helps the bathroom look more open.
Glass panels are another option. Solid walls can make the space feel smaller. Glass panels keep the area open. Many homeowners use glass shower screens. They separate areas without making the space feel closed.
