While much of the design focus in the bath centers around spectacular bathing and shower areas and beautifully detailed sinks, the more functional portion of the room has been hidden away or begrudgingly accepted as an undesirable necessity. Not anymore.
Today’s toilets are highly styled to go along with their increased functionality, and can now take their rightful place as part of a dazzling bathroom design. From soft curves and geometric shapes to bold and striking colors, bath designers are now met with countless options to complement any style décor.
In addition, the latest group of high-efficiency toilets provide greater flushing capabilities with less water usage, a bonus that will make environmentally and cost-conscious customers smile. And, bidets with multi-purpose options and “smart” toilet seats only add to the pampering environment that highly styled baths provide.
This month, Kitchen & Bath Design News takes a closer look at the latest offerings in the world of the
water closet.
