You can't do without shelves in the bathroom. After all, you need somewhere to put numerous bottles, vials and tubes.

But many people have a question: “Is it necessary to close the shelves?”

At first glance, it would be better to place shampoos, colognes, creams and packages of soap in a cabinet with doors so that the abundance of hygiene and cosmetic products does not create a feeling of disorder.

However, Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti in the field of design and interior, recommends using open shelves in the room.

Why open shelves are better than closed ones

Most bathrooms are not very spacious, and closed cabinets eat up the already limited space.

Therefore, it is advisable to use open shelves.

Such devices do not contribute to the visual reduction of the area of the room.

But the desired result will be achieved only if the shelves are not too crowded.

Remove all unnecessary items and create more free space on the shelves.

If the number of containers is still significant, then it makes sense to use a cabinet. After all, some of the space will be "eaten up" anyway.
