TREND WATCH
SINKS AND FAUCETS THAT ADD ART TO THE HOME
Believe it or not, your bathroom is an
excellent place to incorporate pieces of art
into your home décor. We aren’t simply
speaking about adding a vase to a shelf
or hanging paintings. Rather, you can add
beautifully artisan-crafted pieces in the
form of faucets and fixtures.
Explore the Online Galleries of bathroom
faucet and fixture brands and you’ll find
a treasure trove of items that are anything
but ordinary. These sinks, tubs, and faucets
are standout pieces that can instantly
transform a lavatory into a gallery.
BATHROOM SINKS
In a sea of basic white sinks, there are
some gorgeous alternatives to be found.
You may be surprised to discover textures
and colours, sinks made of brass, copper,
and glass; even those that have been
painstakingly hand-painted with intricate
patterns.
BATHROOM FAUCETS
Bathroom faucets are often thought of
as jewelry for the bathroom, adding that
perfect finishing touch to your design.
That’s why it’s important to put some
thought into the model you choose. Don’t
let it be an afterthought, especially with so
many interesting designs on the market.
Just as with the sink, your bathroom faucet
can become an artistic focal point in your
bathroom.
