When it comes to furnishing tiny bathrooms functionally, the choice of elements that are practical and at the same time take up little space is crucial. Thanks to its special shape, the corner washbasin is designed to utilise the space that normally remains unused, namely the intersection between two walls.
Features of corner washbasins for narrow bathrooms
Those who are not lucky enough to own a large house often have such a space problem that it is difficult to fit in all the pieces of furniture, as is more and more often the case nowadays, especially for those who live in large cities. Among the furnishings that are difficult to place is certainly the washbasin, which, although essential, can take up too much space in the bathroom.
In a small bathroom, a traditional washbasin could really become too bulky and compromise the usability and practicality of the space. How can you do it then? An optimal solution is the corner washbasin, which is usually placed in the guest bathroom or, in any case, in small and narrow spaces where you need to utilise all the available space.
Before buying, however, you should carry out a few checks of the room and first make sure that the angle in question is exactly 90°. In this way, you don’t run the risk of having a sanitary fitting that does not adhere well to the walls once installed, a characteristic that makes it anything but aesthetic.
If the sides of the corner are particularly wide, you can choose a corner washbasin with a characteristic triangular shape in standard dimensions, with a width of about 55/60 cm. If, on the other hand, the available space is limited, it is better to opt for a smaller washbasin, such as a handbasin with essential lines and a pre-punched single tap hole.
In this case, we cannot technically speak of a corner washbasin, as these washbasins have a rectangular shape instead of an angular one, but they are still space-saving solutions that anyone who needs to furnish small bathrooms should always consider. There are also many solutions in this case, and it is possible to find washbasins that utilise the length of the wall. These are rectangular washbasins that offer maximum functionality with a depth of just 25 cm.
Corner washbasins, the choice that ensures comfort
You might think that this choice is a second-best solution that does not fully fulfil the need for elegance and comfort. But this is a misconception, because a good corner washbasin is perfectly capable of guaranteeing functionality and elegance.
With designer corner washbasins, it is possible to optimise the space and use a corner of the room for an elegant and functional sanitary unit.
Generally, this type of washbasin is prepared for wall mounting, so it can also be placed in small bathrooms as it takes up very little space. When it comes to materials, it is important to pay attention to quality and choose a ceramic corner washbasin made from the best raw materials and with perfect workmanship.
