A bath in our modern homes is not a luxury, but a necessity, therefore, even in the smallest apartments, architects are looking for an opportunity to place this necessary item.
Unfortunately, the area of the premises allocated for its installation is usually small, so designers, as a rule, create interiors with a corner bath – this saves space and allows you to use the space to the maximum. Refusal from the usual shape of the bathroom gives ample opportunities in the design of bathrooms and allows you to implement interesting design ideas.
Size and shape
One of the main advantages of the design with a corner bath is the ability to put a voluminous and easy-to-use bowl even in a small area due to the fact that such baths are available in a variety of sizes and shapes..
For example, sizes start from 150 and can go up to 180 cm, and the shape of the bowl itself is either symmetrical (with equal sides “corner”) or has different sides (150×170, 110×160 and other options).
When planning an interior with a corner bath, you must start by determining where it will be installed and the largest possible size. After that, choosing the right model will no longer be difficult. The design of corner baths varies widely: they can be of different colors, designs, have additional accessories, and look completely different, which allows them to fit into almost any interior.
Material
Baths, including corner ones, are made from a variety of materials. It can be both traditional steel and cast iron, and more modern acrylics, quarils, as well as expensive and exotic marble and even wood. When planning the interior of a corner bathroom, you should immediately consider how the material of the bathroom itself will be combined with other finishing materials in this room..
Equipment
The simplest version of a corner bath is one-piece, no additional equipment can be installed in it. More sophisticated options include technological holes for completing with nozzles connected to a Jacuzzi or water massage system.
Registration
Corner bathtub according to its design on both sides “corner” fits snugly against the walls of the room, and only one side, called the front panel, remains accessible for viewing. This panel plays a leading role in the design of the corner bath..
There are various options for its design:
- plastic panels from the manufacturer;
- facing with tiles, mosaics;
- opening panels made of moisture-resistant material (make it possible to use the space under the bathroom to store the necessary little things);
- creating a podium to facilitate entry into the bathroom (only applicable in large bathrooms).
