In the hectic pace of life, home, this haven from the wind, every inch of space should be designed with thoughtful consideration. In particular, the bathroom, which is a private space that we frequently use every day, has a reasonable layout design that is not only related to aesthetics, but also affects the convenience of life. Have you ever wondered if you need a partition between the toilet and the sink in addition to the wet and dry separation of the shower?
Once upon a time, like many people, I didn't give much thought to the layout of the bathroom. Until one day, a friend who has installed four suites shared his design experience, and it dawned on me: it turns out that there should also be a partition between the toilet area and the washing area. He emphasized that such a three-way separation, on the basis of dry and wet separation, can further improve the quality of life. However, not all restrooms are suitable for such a division.
If the bathroom is less than 5 square meters, there is simply no room for additional partitions in an overcrowded space. In this case, a distance of about 25 cm is sufficient, and if there are burly members in the family, this distance may need to be appropriately expanded. In a small bathroom, we usually have two options for dealing with the relationship between the toilet and the sink. The first is to leave it blank.
Washing and toileting are two different activities, but they don't necessarily require strict boundaries. A more creative approach is to place the sink outside, fundamentally separating the washing area from the toilet area, which not only saves space, but also allows family members to wash and use the toilet without interfering with each other, making efficient use of time, especially for office workers and student families who leave early and return late. The second is to install movable partitions.
The flexible design of the partitions, such as shelves with castors, not only meets the needs of storage, but also acts as a partition when necessary. For those bathrooms with an area of more than 5 square meters, there are more options for separating the toilet from the washing area. Here, I will take stock of several popular partition styles for you. One of the first choices, wooden grille partitions.
Not only is this material durable, but also because of its hollowed out, it does not block light and airflow, maintaining the permeability of the space. The second option, glass partitions. Similar to the design of the shower, you can choose half-height frosted glass to protect privacy without making the space look too cramped and enclosed. The third type is staggered partitions.
If you have a wall-mounted toilet in your home, consider creating a recess in the wall and placing the sink in it to stagger the space and create a natural partition. The last one, the extension cabinet partition. By adding an additional 20 cm wide cabinet to the outside of the sink, the storage space is expanded and the washing area is naturally separated from the toilet.
Although the design of the bathroom is a small detail in the home, it is these small details that can make a big difference in our daily lives. The choice of partition is not a hard and fast rule, but is based on the individual's lifestyle Xi and the needs of family members. No matter which partition method we choose, the purpose is to make every corner of the home better serve our lives.
In this way, whether it is a quiet time to be alone or a warm moment with the family, you can get a better experience in a reasonable and well-designed space. (The picture in this article comes from the Internet and is for reference only.) ）
