Bathroom can be categorized into several different types based on their size and function.
The smallest
footprint of a bathroom is usually the powder room and the half bath. there are plenty of variations
depending on the type of fixtures present like
There is a wide range of bathtubs to fit just about any personal style and
preference. Here are the common bathtub styles:
Bathtub- A bathtub is a long, usually rectangular container which you fill with water
and sit in to wash your body.
Freestanding- The primary advantage of a freestanding bathtub is that it can

be placed anywhere in your home without the need for supporting walls or a
built-in ingress.
Alcove- This bathtub style is ideal for smaller bathrooms as these bathtubs
are designed to take as little space as possible.
Corner-A corner bathtub is a 3- or 5-sided bathtub that is designed to fit into a
corner. This allows the bathtub to fit into an area where a standard rectangular
tub will not fit. Corner tubs are an ideal space-saving choice without having to sacrifice
the aesthetic interiors of your bathroom. It maximizes the floor and wall space, allowing you
to get the most out of your area. With it, the extra room left can be used for standing at sinks,
drying off or sitting at dressing tables.
Drop-in- Compared to a freestanding bathtub that stands on it’s own, a drop-

in bathtub needs to be installed with support structures such as surrounding
walls or some anchor point to the ground.
Walk-in- The primary focus of a walk-in bathtub is to provide access to those

with limited mobility. These style bathtubs are equipped with handlebars and
grips to assist the user with entering and exiting the tub.
A downside of these is that they’re more expensive and that you have to wait for the water to
completely drain before getting out.
Whirlpool-A whirlpool is a bathtub that has multiple powered jets. These jets
are powered through air or water and designed to provide therapeutic muscle
relief.
a whirlpool bath shoots jets of water to provide a targeted, powerful hydro-massage.
Hydrotherapy has been used for centuries to relieve and treat pain, as well as offer therapeutic
relaxation to create a spa-like experience.
Sinks
Often overlooked, sinks provide a nice contrast to the rest of your bathroom.
In addition, they offer a strong stylistic anchor point to help you design your
bathroom around.
 Free Standing-A freestanding sink is a sink that can stand on its own
and is constructed from a single piece of material that turns into a base.
Sometimes referred to as a “pedestal” sink, these sinks are ideal for
bathrooms that want the look of a vanity but don’t have the space.
 Wall Mounted-Wall mounted sinks are sinks that are anchored to a
wall. This style is ideal for smaller bathrooms as a wall mount helps to
free up available space in your bathroom.
 Countertop: A countertop sink comprises a sink basin that sits on a
counter. This style is unique as it has more height than the average
sink, preventing excess water from spilling out of the basin itself, and is
generally more spacious in its design.
 Marble-A marble countertop is a classic bathroom fixture. Marble suits a
bathroom aesthetic well, blending elegant tones and providing a unique
countertop for your sink.
 Undermount-An undermount sink is a sink that is installed under your
counter, so the rim of the sink is never visible. This sink style is ideal if
you want a more seamless counter without dealing with the edge of
your sink.
 Ramp-A ramp sink has a sloped interior in place of a traditional sink
bowl. This slope forms the sink’s interior, providing a more sleek and
modern look.
Toilets are available in various styles to suit individual flushing needs. Some
toilets offer more aggressive flushing methods than others, while some don’t
require water.
Here are the common types of toilets and their unique functions:
 Dual-Flush-Dual flush toilets work by incorporating a flushing

mechanism that regulates water to flush solid and liquid waste
separately. This means that you can control how much water you use
per flush, ultimately saving you money on your water bill.
 Wall-Mounted-A wall mounted toilet is a toilet that is installed and
anchored to a wall. While they may be difficult to install, once placed,
they can drastically improve the amount of space available to you.
 Gravity-One of the most common toilets in homes today, a gravity flush
toilet is a toilet that uses gravity to flush instead of water. Water rushes
through when the handle is pushed, forcing waste into the drain
system.
 Waterless: A waterless toilet or “dry” toilet is essentially a toilet that
functions as a compost chamber. The toilet collects waste in a separate,
well-ventilated area, allowing wind and heat from the sun to handle the
waste and eventually turn it into a compost-like substance.
 Double-Cyclone-The double cyclone is a flushing system designed by
Toto which disperses the water through 2 separate nozzles, resulting in
a swirl motion in the bowl, which provides a more thorough rinsing and
flushing cycle in the toilet. The nozzles are faced sideways to allow
water to hit the bowl’s surface, which creates the cleaning vortex.
 Pressure-assisted-A pressure-assisted toilet uses not only gravity but
air pressure to help flush itself. This type of toilet has a secondary
plastic tank, known as a pressure vessel, inside the main tank. This
means that the tank is always pressurized, so the water is forcefully
ejected with the air when you flush. The only drawback to these toilets is
that they tend to be much louder than gravity flush systems.
