Pedestal Sinks
This is a great option, because the pedestal adds a beautiful design element. The disadvantage is that you give up the storage space that may be essential in small bathrooms. The latest trends include stainless steel pedestals and glass pedestals.

Wall Mount
This is a appealing if you like an open space design. It allows you to
keep the space under the sink open by mounting the sink to the wall.
The plumbing pipes usually are visible but you can upgrade to more attractive
looking special-finish pipes. There is a huge selection of new European
wall mount sinks. It's not possible to use a wall mount sink in every
bathroom, however, for various reasons.

Vanity
This is the most popular option because it provides storage
under the sink and hides the pipes. Vanity cabinets are available
in many styles and in every budget. A popular style is a
vanity with a drop in sink and countertop that continues
from the vanity along the wall to the toilet. It's
called a “banjo” countertop because it narrows
like the neck of a banjo above the toilet.

Vessel Sinks
This is the newest sink trend. It consists of large bowl mounted on top of a surface - usually a countertop or cabinet. Vessel sinks are available in every material imaginable. Popular options include see-through glass and natural stone. They are usually used in guest bathrooms or powder rooms. The disadvantage is that vessel sinks are not practical for everyday use. Their unique shape and size make them inconvenient for washing and tooth brushing. |
