Bathroom Sink Ideas

People looking to introduce countertops in their bathrooms might be interested to hear that one industry expert believes granite and quartz are still very much in fashion at the moment.

Speaking to the Las Cruces Sun-News, Ed La Puma, owner of 77 Stone, explained that where granite is concerned, there are a number of different varieties and the material is durable as well, whereas quartz is clean, hygienic and stains less easily as it is not as porous.

According to the news source, bathroom suite renovations are among the most popular for remodelling projects every year, while the trend of mixing countertop basins options in a space will continue throughout 2011.

When it comes to ensuring that bathroom suites are as fashionable as can be this year, it could be an idea to install a square or rectangular sink.

According to the Arizona Daily Star, these are the "shapes du jour", providing a modern look while also helping to save space in the room.

Another idea currently in fashion at the moment is the rustic look – a style that calls for natural, earthy and neutral tones, with complementary dark green shades, paired with pure white or a hue of brown, DNA India reports.

While interior designer Lori Carroll noted that the beauty of bathrooms is that anything and everything is possible.

The expert – who once fitted a 23-carat gold sink – said: "Rooms can be large or small, which allows for creativity."

However, homeowners eager to be a bit different with bathroom furniture may want to consider adapting a set of drawers and installing a sink by adding some plumbing.

For those updating bathrooms with a view to selling, the Daily Stamford recently advised people to update taps in the shower and the washbasin as this will show potential buyers good care has been taken of the home.
