Shower cabins of the open and closed type
Design of the shower room - the word combination is initially wrong, but, unfortunately, has become widespread. If you make a detached shower room in a small city apartment with your own hands, then for sure you think about its interior delights in the last place. The maximum of the functional, the minimum of costs - this is our slogan.
But the forced installation of a modern shower cubicle instead of an old cast-iron bath is a serious reason to think about the design of the toilet room in which it will be mounted.
The first option is familiar to everyone who at least once took a shower. Walls in the corner zone are insulated with tiles, marble or any other material you like, with low hygroscopic properties. Simply put, to absorb, accumulate and allocate moisture, this element of design of a self-made shower room should be minimized.
Special requirements for the floor and in our case to the shower room shower tray. First, the functionality( looking for material):
- is durable: you already know that the bathroom is constantly falling;
- is not very slippery: sometimes we fall;
- moisture-proof - neighbors to pour overhead;
- durable - permanent repairs of the bathroom can ruin.
But with the choice of the design of a floor covering of a shower room of an open type of problems, we believe, will not arise. We are convinced that you did not have time to imagine the technological and artistic solutions that are already on the construction markets.
With enclosed shower enclosures, everything is simpler and more complex. In fact, for not very big money( from 9 to 12 thousand rubles) you get an unfamiliar home appliance with a whole bunch of functions. Advantages compared to the usual bathroom are obvious: compactness, isolation, convenient and economical scheme of water supply and drainage, automation. In the framework of this article, we note that the surrounding space can be made really beautiful.
Design and advantages of the shower cubicle
Before you mentally throw out the usual bathtub and build a fashionable shower in the bathroom interior, think about what you and the family want to get as a result. In most cases, this is an ordinary box( metal frame) measuring 900x900x2100 mm with sliding glass( plastic) doors, equipped with an acrylic tray and a spray nozzle. Hydromassage and three modes of the mixer are searched in the price category 25000 - 40000 rubles.
What is the reason for the popularity of this product in the Russian market. Analysis of various construction forums gave a somewhat contradictory picture, but we will voice it.
- Ergonomics .A person, often washing under a shower, takes away from others two times less vital space of our small apartments.
- Economics .Hot and cold water, he then uses half as much as with bathing procedures( 90 and 200 liters, respectively), and we already learned the money.
- Creativity of .It turns out that in a remodeled toilet room with a shower cubicle, you can place as much useful household appliances and create a design that the Roman patricians never dreamed of, just look at the photo of the finished interiors.
- Mobility .This criterion is rightly chosen by a young, eternally somewhere hurrying generation. In a flash he rinsed and ran.
Shower room in the country house
Remodeling the plumbing equipment in a city apartment is a thankless task, but every real man is obliged to plan and install a shower at the dacha. Smelly children, then grandchildren should wash somewhere. You can do such work without much haste, and the finishing materials for creating a "unique" dacha design of the shower room can be chosen in the economy class.
Ironically, in the countryside the tree works fine, and it is not necessary to spend money on an aspen board or an array of teak. A simple Russian pine will last 20-30 years, and there the next generation will grow up. A simple shower installation in a country house( or a separate building on a plot) can be a temporary measure until the construction of a beloved Russian bath, and often become a habitual element of country landscape design and express rescue from heat and dust. If you connect a good water heater to the water supply system, your family will not have hygiene problems.
