98 HOW TO SAVE SPACE AND ADD DESIGN APPEAL IN A CLOAKROOM One of the greatest benefits of having a downstairs cloakroom is adding function for guests. But usually limited in size, the question is, how can you maximise the area, without compromising on design appeal? For a luxurious traditional cloakroom, think about an Edwardian-style basin from Burlington, which has the added benefit of a towel rail below. Beautifully-designed, slim vanity units are the perfect solution. Utilising the dead space beneath a sink adds storage, without compromising on valuable floor area. Easy Bathrooms offers the Compact vanity unit in stunning gloss white or dark oak, which can be fitted with a matte black tap to add depth. Another important product in a cloakroom is usually the mirror. It’s a place where guests will usually check how they look, so it requires good facial lighting. Integrated A corner unit can also be a good option. Easy Bathrooms stocks freestanding Burlington corner vanities, available in matte white, sand or olive. lighting within a mirror gives a good level of visibility, without providing a harsh look. Finish the scheme with bold, patterned floor tiles and wall panelling, to impress guests.
