Why Rectangular Bathroom Basins are a Growing Trend
The bathroom is no longer the simple ablution facility of the ‘50s, a lacklustre space to accommodate a sink, a toilet and a bathtub. Today, while still functional, it has become more of a fashion statement. Its furnishings, which are more likely to include a shower cubicle or hot tub rather than a bath, are designed both for efficiency and visual appeal. Take the sink, for example. For many years, bathroom basins were, without exception, rounded structures with a pair of taps, varying only in overall size and colour. More recently, many homeowners have been showing a preference for rectangular units and their more modern lines. Could this be the start of a new trend?
Traditional Classic Rounded Units
Trending or not, each design has its pros and cons, and one should probably review these before making any final decision. Rounded units are the obvious choice for those who favour a more classic style. However, others may consider them dated and would far prefer to install bathroom basins more in keeping with the twenty-first century. There is one feature of a round sink that can be off-putting. If the pressure in your taps is high, the smoothly curved interior of the bowl is more likely to encourage splashing and the danger of slipping on wet tiled floors. On the other hand, those internal curves also make them easier to clean than a unit with angled corners in which soap scum and dirt can accumulate.
Ultra-Modern, Sleek Rectangular Bathroom Basins
One variation on the traditional round sink with a supporting pedestal is replacing these somewhat limited bathroom basins with a more practical option. The vanity unit adds attractive housing to hold the hand-washing facility while concealing the plumbing and providing the owner with some handy additional storage space for spare towels, toilet rolls, and other sundry items.
GEZA Home had designed a floating vanity unit that can be attached to a wall at a suitable height. The unit comprises a cabinet finished in stylish Indian ebony wood grain with a large storage drawer. Following the shape of the cabinet, the premium ceramic bathroom basin is the modern rectangular type and has a centrally positioned mixer tap. The unit is sufficiently compact, just 91 cm long and 47 cm in width and height, even with limited available space.
For those who choose to buck the new trend or prefer a traditional white finish, we also offer a floor-standing unit with a two-door cupboard containing two shelves supporting a classic round sink. Whatever your preference, we are committed to producing stylish, hard-wearing and affordable products.
