- Such designs are great to save space.... You can put something useful on the vacated area, for example, a set of drawers for bath accessories.
- Due to their design, such products are very convenient. You can sit, stand, lie in them. Many models can accommodate two people. In addition, corner designs often have a set of additional functions: hydromassage, aromatherapy, lighting, and much more.

However, there are, of course, downsides here.
- If the room is very small then there may not be a place near the opposite wall - the bathtub will stand almost end-to-end. In this case, you will have to stop at the seated model.
- Corner options are more expensive than rectangular, and the presence of additional functions will raise the price several times more.
- Design features of such bathtubs suggest a higher water consumption.
- Corner models are much more difficult to care for., especially if they are equipped with hydromassage. Getting to all areas in need of cleaning is not an easy task.

How to choose a bath for the interior?
When choosing a bath, it is important to consider several basic parameters. This is the form of construction, material of manufacture, colors and, of course, size.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/220-165/2019/09/uglovaya-vanna-v-interere-kak-vybrat-i-gde-razmestit-67.jpg)

By form
Today you can find many different shapes, but most often baths are divided into two large groups: symmetrical and asymmetrical.
The first option is not very much in demand, since it requires a large water consumption, and also takes up a lot of space. The second solution is more profitable in terms of economy and convenience.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/162-162/2019/09/uglovaya-vanna-v-interere-kak-vybrat-i-gde-razmestit-55.jpg)

Now let's see how you can choose the shape of the product based on the dimensions of the room.
- Triangular models save space well, they are suitable for small rooms.
- Trapezoidal structures need a properly designed room, but they will practically merge with the interior. Suitable for all types of rooms.
- Polygonal baths, as well as various non-standard shapes, it is recommended to choose for large spaces.
- Diamond-shaped the products will fit well into spacious rooms, but with the right layout, they can also be placed in small bathrooms, decorated in unusual styles.

By material
For the manufacture of bathtubs most often there are three main materials used: cast iron, steel and acrylic.
- Cast iron the most durable and strong, such a bath will last for a long time. The water in it does not cool down for a long time, and the design itself is very reliable. However, there are many more disadvantages: huge weight, complexity of installation, not always attractive design. Also, it will be very cold in winter to get bare feet in the tub while waiting for it to warm up.
- Steel - it is a lightweight material, such models are easy to deliver and install. The steel structure serves for about 10 years, then it needs to be restored or changed. Among the disadvantages are the rapid cooling of water and a slippery surface.
- Acrylic models - this is probably the best choice for today. Acrylic is not too expensive, it is plastic, flexible, allows you to get any shape. It is very pleasant to swim in such a bath. However, acrylic will not tolerate powder or abrasive cleaners.

By color
When choosing the color of the structure, you need to focus on the design of your room. White bathtubs will always look appropriate, suitable for any style and size of the room. This is a classic solution that you will never go wrong with.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/337-337/2019/09/uglovaya-vanna-v-interere-kak-vybrat-i-gde-razmestit-7.jpg)

If you want to bring colors to life, you can opt for colored models. The main thing is that the design does not cause dissonance with the finish, but complements it.
For example, if the finish is light green, then light green bath will be a wonderful acquisition. Blue models will effectively transform blue rooms, but here you will need several accessories to match the color of the bath itself. The same advice will come in handy for bright rooms. But in the case of a dark finish black designs you should not buy, otherwise they will hide the space.

To size
All corner baths can be divided into several groups.
- Small. As a rule, these are dimensions of a maximum of 140x140 cm. Such dimensions are quite enough for an adult to bathe.
- Average. Here the parameters increase, and the size can go up to 160x160 cm. It will be enough for a married couple who prefers joint bath procedures.
- Big ones. Baths from 170 cm, appropriate only in spacious rooms. Can be placed both against the wall and in the center.
However, the range of corner structures is not limited to the described parameters, because these are only the average dimensions of symmetrical products. Baths can have completely different dimensions depending on the shape and manufacturer. For example, 100x150, 110x170, 180x130 cm and others.

Let's consider a few good options.
- In the corner. This is the ideal solution for small spaces. The bathtub will fit neatly into the corner, thereby freeing up a lot of space. In the decoration of such rooms, designers advise using light colors that visually expand the space.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/715-0/2019/09/uglovaya-vanna-v-interere-kak-vybrat-i-gde-razmestit-15.jpg)
- In a combined bathroom. A very beautiful idea with which you can bring to life many design options. For example, a bathtub can divide the room into two parts, where on one side there will be a washbasin and a toilet, and on the other - a washing machine and cabinets.
Also, some designers make a special partition, as if taking the center of the bathtub.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/715-0/2019/09/uglovaya-vanna-v-interere-kak-vybrat-i-gde-razmestit-16.jpg)
- On the podium. Model on the catwalk is a true luxury, quite allowing one to present oneself in Ancient Greece or Ancient Rome, where such fonts were widespread. At the same time, such a structure can be placed both in the corner and taken out to the very center of the room.

Styles
Corner baths must necessarily match the style of the room in which they will be located.
- Minimalism will appreciate a modest, unremarkable bath with right angles and smooth, calm lines. In this case, it is better to choose the white version.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/337-253/2019/09/uglovaya-vanna-v-interere-kak-vybrat-i-gde-razmestit-76.jpg)

- Classic interiors should also be supplemented with white bathtubs and standard shapes. Placement on the podium is encouraged, as well as column decoration.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/715-0/2019/09/uglovaya-vanna-v-interere-kak-vybrat-i-gde-razmestit-21.jpg)
- In the Provencal direction you need to take care that there are no dark tones in the room. Only pastel, light palette is appropriate here. For example, pale pink or lilac items are a good idea.
You can choose a white one, but then buy a beautiful curtain that meets the canons of style.

- For hi-tech you will have to pick up a lot of glass and chrome elements. Bathtubs of unusual shapes are welcome, for example, diamond-shaped. They must be complemented with glass sliding doors.

- Japanese style it will turn out if you install the bathtub on the podium. At the same time, the design should be minimalistic. However, the bathtub in the corner will also look quite appropriate, only in this case it is better to choose the red option and decorate the room in white and red tones with black notes.

- Scandinavian style loves white, so the bath must be matched to the finish. Better to buy a construction of simple forms, but with different functions.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/337-253/2019/09/uglovaya-vanna-v-interere-kak-vybrat-i-gde-razmestit-27.jpg)

- Eco style you need to adhere to naturalness. A white or light green acrylic bathtub with delicate curtains to match the finish will look good. The presence of a tree, bamboo is required. If finances permit, you can also purchase a stone bath.

Features of the arrangement of the bathroom
It doesn't matter what size or shape your bathtub is, the main thing is that it fully fits the room, and does not clutter it up even more.

Let's take a look at some of the tips that designers give in this regard.
- When making repairs, get rid of things that are not needed and spoil the appearance of the room. The wiring can be hidden in a separate box; bulky heated towel rails can be replaced with compact electric ones.
- If the room is small, it makes sense to skip the washbasin.... This thing is not so necessary, because you can wash and wash your hands in the bath.
- Washing machines don't have to be huge either.if every centimeter of space is valuable. At the moment, there are machines on top of which you can install a sink, in general, this is a pretty good idea for cramped bathrooms.
- As for the toilet bowl, the most rational solution would be a suspended model. Of course, this will turn out to be an expensive purchase, but such toilets create a feeling of lightness and do not take up space at all.
- Bathroom decoration is of the utmost importance. If you can afford everything in large rooms, then in small rooms you will have to weigh every step. For example, it is a good idea to choose not a suspended ceiling, but a mirrored ceiling that will increase the space. Tiles with small patterns and intricate patterns should also be discarded, a solid coating or paint will look more impressive.
- Remember that any bathroom needs bright accents., especially rooms with colored baths. It is necessary to select accessories to match the product.
- Lighting also plays a big role., because with the right light, the room looks much more profitable. Opt for spotlights on the ceiling, and also highlight some important areas, such as a mirror. A corner bathtub with illumination is also a great idea.
Storing bath accessories is a question over which many housewives are puzzled. Give up bulky cabinets in favor of small shelves, niches will also be a good solution. If you have a bath screen, many items can be hidden behind it.
