When choosing the bathroom washbasin, several factors must be considered to find the solution that best suits the space and needs. The aim is to choose a washbasin that blends harmoniously with the bathroom style, without neglecting functionality and design.

The different types and trends of the moment

There are different types of washbasins on the market (free-standing, column, suspended, built-in, totems, etc.) and no one model is better than another: it all depends on preference and the style you want for your bathroom.

Countertop washbasins are among the trendiest solutions: a good compromise between design and functionality. Furthermore, by opting for this type, two different materials can be chosen for the washbasin and the top, thereby “playing” with different structures, colours and shapes, without forgetting the simplicity of installation.

Another solution often adopted by designers is that of the washbasin built into the top: a type of washbasin that is not only very handy but also visually striking, as it allows the same material to be used for the top and the washbasin, thereby creating an unbroken design element.

Lastly, undermount washbasins are recessed in the top and installed inside the bathroom unit. This type of washbasin leaves ample space for those who want a unique and refined design in their bathroom: in fact, in built-in washbasin solutions, the top can be customised with the desired material, thereby achieving the best formal and functional integration of fixture and top.

Santamargherita tops for a designer bathroom

From wall to floor surfaces, to washbasins and tops for built-in sinks, Santamargherita allows bathrooms to be designed and installed using the same material for any item. The result is a harmonious and elegant bathroom, a welcoming and relaxing room where functionality blends with attention to detail. Two different materials – SM Quartz and SM Marble – and various colours to choose from allow spaces to be designed to suit all styles and needs.

If, on the other hand, you are looking for a countertop washbasin solution, rather than the entire bathroom, both the washbasin and the top can be made with the same Santamargherita surface: a matching and highly striking composition. With daily cleaning in mind, for this type of washbasin you can choose materials with several colours, such as SM Marble Palladio Doge or SM Quartz Cervinia, and the end result will be a functional and refined washbasin.
