Bathroom basins go undercover
Amongst a plethora of sculptural taps, statement basins and bold baths there’s an element of understated elegance creeping into bathroom design trends.
Leading bathroom specialist, Kohler, is reporting an increase in undercounter basin installations saying designers and consumers alike are embracing the element of concealment in wet areas to maximise the perception of space and clean, linear surfaces.
The brand’s undercounter basins come in a choice of shapes and sizes to cater for smaller ensuites as well as master bathrooms. Kohler’s Ladena is a rectangular ‘scooped’ basin (590mm wide) while Verticyl comes in both an oval (435mm) and a round (350mm) model.
For those who crave a little embellishment to the understated approach, there is the beautifully elegant vintage era Artist Editions Empress Bouquet. This deep bowl, in either a rectangular or oval format, has a hand-finished pattern that is a modern interpretation of 18th century Chinese print work. Brilliant gold and metallic highlights enhance the overall delicacy of the design.
Each of the undercounter basins are in the highest quality vitreous china.
