The inset basin is one of the trendiest choices when designing a modern bathroom. It is a stylish, practical and elegant solution for any environment. Whilst small bathrooms benefit from this compact solution, larger bathrooms can increase their style.
Inset basins, a perfect choice for the modern bathroom
An inset basin is designed to fit onto worktops with a corresponding recess. Its rim holds firmly onto the counter. This means that the washbasin is fully integrated into the vanity unit and does not require any additional space for installation. This special positioning also gives this type of washbasin a sleek, uncluttered design that is increasingly in demand for luxury bathroom solutions.
Advantages of an inset basin
The inset basin offers a whole range of advantages, one of which is certainly convenience. The vanity unit or worktop on which the washbasin stands can become a practical shelf or storage space, so that the bathroom is always tidy and you have everything you need for the toilet within easy reach.
Another advantage that should not be underestimated is the minimalist design that this solution offers. A washbasin that matches the worktop adds an extra touch of modernity to the bathroom that perfectly aligns with the most modern requirements.
If we want to add functionality to the bathroom, the ease of installation of the individual furniture elements also plays an important role. The inset basin is particularly easy to place as it is embedded directly into the moulded hole in the worktop and requires no further work.
Inset basins, how many types are there?
There are various models of inset basins. You can choose between models with different shapes that are more or less suitable for bathrooms with one or two washbasins. While a single inset basin is a very traditional solution, especially for small bathrooms, two identical inset basins on the same top are a trendy solution for large bathrooms.
The latter is certainly one of the most popular options when it comes to making larger bathrooms functional and comfortable for two users at the same time. The advantages of the twin solution are numerous, and two inset basins only add to the elegance of the bathroom.
How to choose the best inset basin
When choosing an inset basin, you should never disregard the style of the bathroom. If you want the washbasin to fit into a modern and contemporary setting, a round basin is the best choice. If, on the other hand, the rest of the interior is reminiscent of a vintage and retro style, an inset basin with rounded and soft lines at the front and slightly angular lines at the back with high and rounded edges, offers a high standard of comfort.
