Choosing a sink is not just about purchasing plumbing fixtures. This is creating a comfortable space for daily rituals.

Specialists from the Ashgabat EuroHome TM store share tips that will help you make the right choice. First of all, you need to pay attention to five key parameters:

Shape: circle, oval, square, rectangle - classic. Angular and asymmetrical models are suitable for non-standard solutions.

Material: earthenware, porcelain, artificial stone, glass, metal. Each has its own pros and cons. Study the characteristics and choose the appropriate option.

Dimensions: Consider the area of the bathroom. A small sink is an ergonomic solution, while a large one is a practical option for a family.

Technical features: overflow for protection against flooding, type of fastenings, holes for the mixer. Check everything before purchasing!

Design: from minimalism to art deco. The sink should harmoniously complement the style of your bathroom.

Methods for installing sinks

1. Suspended (wall) installation. The sink is attached to a vertical wall using special brackets or consoles.

Pros: does not require additional furniture, easy to clean the floor under the sink.
Cons: requirements for fastening strength, inefficient use of space under the sink, and the liner and drain must be hidden.

2. The countertop sink is installed on a special cabinet or countertop.

Pros: efficient use of space under the sink, does not require a solid wall, hides plumbing and counters.
Cons: Legs can be a nuisance when cleaning, may be a more expensive option.

3. Built-in (mortise) washbasins can be mounted in several ways: under the hole in the countertop, flush with the countertop, or supported on the countertop.

Pros: practical and convenient.
Cons: Not suitable for wooden countertops.

4. Semi-recessed washbasins are the golden mean between overhead and mortise models. They not only decorate the interior, but also give more space inside the cabinet thanks to their design, where the front edge of the sink extends beyond the countertop.

5. Tulip sink. A narrow but high pedestal not only hides unsightly pipes and communications, but also gives the sink airiness and lightness.

6. Floor-standing washbasins are a fresh take on sanitary ware, combining functionality, aesthetics and modern style. Refusal of traditional wall mountings permits you to create unique interiors, where the washbasin becomes an art object that sets the tone for the entire bathroom.

How to choose a sink size?

When choosing a sink for a bathroom, it is important to focus not only on the design, but also on its dimensions. Consider the area of the room, the number of users and your personal preferences.

Optimal width:

• 50-60 cm: universal option for comfortable use and convenient installation.
• 40-50 cm: compact model, but there is a risk of water splashing on the floor.
• 60+ cm: recommended for spacious bathrooms.

Bowl depth:

• 15-20 cm: standard and practical option.
• more than 20 cm: convenient for washing large items.

Flat models:

• unusual design: depth up to 5 cm.
• less practical: water may splash on the floor.
• require regular cleaning.

Choosing a sink by shape

The shape of the sink is not just aesthetics, but also the key to comfort and functionality.

A corner sink will turn an unused corner into a functional area, saving precious square footage.

Round or oval shape. These shell shapes also won't take up much space.

Square or rectangular shape. This sink is ideal if you have a large family or the bathroom space allows.

Non-standard shapes and designs are what distinguish asymmetrical sinks. They can become a real decoration of the bathroom.
