Small, inconspicuous, yet necessary! Bathroom accessories are small pieces of furniture that often have a big impact on the look and functionality of a room.
Above all, bathroom accessories have to fulfil their specific functions. By providing access to cosmetics and essential utensils, they facilitate all hygienic activities and help to keep everything tidy.
Depending on their intended use, they should therefore be placed in an optimal position from a utilitarian and aesthetic point of view. - Bathroom accessories can be divided into free-standing and fixed ones, which are attached to a given surface," remarks Sylwia Madyda from a company distributing modern bathroom furnishings. " Their selection is often a result of the arrangement possibilities of the bathroom, our sense of aesthetics and individual habits and rituals that accompany each individual during daily toileting . Towel rails should be fixed to the wall near the bath or shower. Here, it is important to maintain a certain distance between the individual hangers so that wet fabrics do not come into contact with each other.
The size of the shelves under the mirror is generally suitable for storing only basic cosmetics. Toothbrush cups and soap holders and dispensers are available in both fixed and free-standing versions. The choice of movable elements allows them to be rearranged freely, but takes up additional space on the washbasin.
Something for the spirit
Many bathrooms also make use of other ancillary accessories.
Depending on our needs and preferences, newspaper baskets are placed next to the dirty clothes baskets, and instead of some shelves and hangers, movable racks are introduced to store all sorts of useful items both during and after the bath. However, it is worth ensuring that all the accessories form a coherent whole. You can find uniform sets in bathroom shops, the design of which corresponds to the chosen style.
For a modernist bathroom, you can choose simple, austere forms with metallic colours. On the other hand, more varied accessories with interesting shapes, colours and designs work well in refined, traditional bathrooms. However, do not overdo it. Especially in smaller rooms, this can create an unpleasant impression of cramped and kitsch and make it difficult to move around.
