There comes a time when you start asking yourself: "Who am I?" "Where am I going?" "Is it worth investing in a bathroom with a double sink ?"...
Do you have a large bathroom? So, you've probably thought about installing two sinks. Maybe it was when you wanted to wash your face and get on with your evening skincare routine in peace, and your beloved "other half" had an equally brilliant idea. And it started: "Pass the soap, move over a bit, don't splash me, where's the cream, etc." Or maybe it was when you were in a rush and brushing your teeth as a group turned out to be a minor battle, with the casualty being a toothpaste-stained blouse.
Regardless of the story behind the idea, it has already taken root. And dilemmas arise:
- how much space do you need?
- Is it better to have a double sink or two single sinks?
- countertop, recessed or freestanding?
- will this really work?
- What costs should you prepare for?
The key question is probably: "Will this finally give me the comfort I've been longing for?" You have your doubts. We know the answers.
Bathroom with double sink = no more "fights" for access to the water tap?
To be comfortable when washing at the sink, you should consider a space of approximately 70 cm. Of course, this means 70 cm per person. This is enough space to ensure comfortable hygiene.
To be able to talk about:
- full comfort of movement,
- the aesthetics of the created corner with washbasins,
- space on the counter for two,
the distance between the sinks should be at least 30 cm (although it can be less).
A bathroom with two bowls (or a double sink ) is a perfect solution for couples, married couples, but also for families with small children or siblings (who, for example, have classes at similar times at school). Two stations next to each other provide exclusivity and closeness. You can accompany young children while learning about hygiene (by demonstrating the steps). By washing together (even for adults), you gain not only more peaceful mornings but also a few extra moments together (both in the bathroom and outside of it).
Are there any opponents to this solution? Yes. These are people for whom the bathroom is an incredibly intimate space. A place to "escape" and experience privacy. In such a case, the idea needs to be thoroughly discussed.
You should not forget that when talking about two sinks, you are also taking into account other multiples:
- two fittings,
- two drains,
- two mirrors (or one large mirror),
- (and preferably) two stations with hygiene accessories (so as not to disturb each other by taking soap or toothpaste) or two cabinets.
Modern washbasins – what variants and variations await you at Ravon
As always, we've spoiled you. You have several options:
- two countertop washbasins ,
- two sinks built into the countertop ,
- two free-standing washbasins (floor washbasins).
You can order each of them personalized in terms of color or even hand-painted graphics.
All:
- in the rich RAL palette, RAVON's own
- made of the best composites (Qualtec, Marmonit, PureStone, PuroMetal),
- in matte or glossy or with a metallized coating,
- handmade in Poland.
The most common solution is identical washbasins, but the option of installing two bowls from the same line but with different colors (and in our case, even graphics) is becoming increasingly popular. It's important to maintain symmetry in the remaining elements (otherwise, chaos will reign, and the bathroom will become somewhat "overwhelmed").
Countertop bathroom sinks, and Ravon's suggestions :
- Ravon Euphoria – inspired by the calla flower,
- Saxo Overtop – somewhat resembling a bucket,
- Ravon Genesis – cubist, oval
- Tulipano – ultra feminine in the shape of a tulip cup.
Bathroom sink built into the countertop, and our recommended products:
- Lovely – a timeless classic,
- Saxo Inset – deep and asymmetrical.
To sum up - a bathroom with two sinks, advantages and disadvantages
Advantages: Two countertop sinks, two recessed sinks, or two freestanding sinks, They offer incredible decorative possibilities. We guarantee their design. You take care of creating the space around them. Together, we'll create a unique and exceptionally striking space (just look at the inspiration online). This option simply gives you a bit more scope for creativity, especially if you use our bowls – from the Ravon factory.
In short - wherever simplicity and symmetry are valued, but also for fans of eclecticism or Scandinavian interiors, double the joy of Ravon will be the best solution.
A bathroom with two sinks (especially a master bathroom) offers a chance to further emphasize individuality. Each party can design their own space (with their favorite products and cosmetics).
Another argument for it is saving time and spending it together.
And the disadvantages? The first concerns space. Two stations (even small ones) will take up more space, which (in a small bathroom) will reduce comfort.
Another one - two sinks mean double the cost (bowls, siphon, connections and installation), etc.
The last one – the area to be cleaned increases and the privacy decreases (although paradoxically, intimacy may become tighter).
And what is your opinion?
