In the first place it must organically fit into the overall design. Depending on what style decorated bathroom, steals its configuration, material, and other characteristics.
The most popular and affordable raw material for the manufacture of ceramic washbasins is: sanitary ware and sanfarfor. Both are time-tested, designed for long service life, resistance to scratching and temperature changes, it is easy to care for. Origin cheaper but is more porous, absorbent and dirt odors. However, this disadvantage manufacturers successfully corrected by applying to the surface of a firm and smooth enamelled coating.
There are sinks made of other materials:
- Natural and artificial stone. Stone sinks organically look in the eco-design.
- Wood. Products made of it fit well with the rustic style (rustic).
- Glass. The optimal choice for high-tekovskogo and avant-garde design.
The main disadvantage of these materials - the high cost of the finished product.
The shells are of different shape and depth. These characteristics depend on the design decision, as well as the functionality. Classic, "calm" styles are more suitable smooth shape, modern - rectangular, shaped and asymmetric. If your sink is for washing, brushing your teeth and washing your hands, you can choose a miniature version of the shallow. If you are going to wash in her head or favorite dog's paws after a walk, better to stay on a more capacious model.
By the way! From the external appearance of the shell depends on the choice of mixer: small suit valves with low spout, deep - high. Also note the presence in the cup holes for securing it.
By way of installation washbasins are:
- Floor (on the podium, Solid). If you want to hide all external supply and discharge communication - this is your option.
- Suspended save space. They can be installed even on a washing machine with side-loading, but the pipe hot and cold water have to wall up into the wall.
- Built, and overhead. Complete with furniture such as a cupboard or a table, they take up a lot of space, but more functional: inside, except communications, can be arranged boxes and lockers for necessary accessories. Models on the console (the table on two legs, adjacent and attached to the wall), performing more decorative function, look more refined, relevant in the framework of the classic and retro styles.
And finally, the larger bathroom, the 'large', you can choose a washbasin.

About the sink need to think more on the stage of repair. If you do not use the services of a designer, design your own:
Where and what kind of equipment will be standing in the bathroom. From the future shell locations (and not only it) will depend upon where "pulled" pipe with hot and cold water as well as sewage drain.
- In what style WC will be issued. It depends on this choice of form and sink material. If the design you have a problem, at least consider the fact that all that will be located inside - from finishing to plumbing and accessories - should be in harmony with each other.
- Decide on the functionality - for which you will be using the sink, as well as the attachment type, in case of need to hide communication in the wall prior to lining.
- Try not to be mistaken with the size of the shell. If you place a little, choose a model with dimensions of more modest. Free space in front of the washbasin for a comfortable use of them should be at least 70 cm and the distance from the central axis of the shell to the surrounding walls - not less than 55 cm.
