Counter top basins and wall hung products can be fixed at any height suitable to you, proving practical to accommodate your room features, such as windows.

Wall-hung basin designs are forever expanding. Whether you go for a corner basin or one complete with a towel rail - there are options to suit most spaces and fulfil your bathroom’s needs. This Arezzo 700 Wall Hung Basin with Matt Black Towel Rail Frame, for example, is not only super stylish but also carries a built-in towel rail which will save the cost and space of an additional product.

To save yet more space, tap holes can be situated on the left and right-hand side of wall hung basins. Although small, a dainty wall hung basin can slot perfectly into an awkwardly sized bathroom.
