Apartment design
Today our stores provide the widest selection of sanitaryware. This diversity concerns not only the design features of the models, but also the installation method, as well as color. But managers selling devices for bathrooms claim that even despite the fact that colored equipment has appeared on the shelves, many buyers traditionally prefer toilets, sinks and bidets in a standard snow-white color. Black toilets have not gained much popularity. What's the matter? There are several reasons.
Initially, this solution is not suitable for every average person due to the darkness of the color. In addition, most people are afraid that they will not be able to choose a good design for this non-standard item. dealing with a black toilet is quite a challenge. And the last nuance touches on some of the difficulties associated with maintaining dark-colored sanitaryware. Water contains elements that leave light-colored deposits on surfaces, which are not very visible on white equipment, but are clearly an eyesore on a black toilet. In this regard, the black toilet needs to be cleaned quite often (it is better to do this every day). Not everyone is capable of such daily feats.
Black toilet: advantages
A black toilet, compared to a traditional white one, may not fit into any bathroom interior. However, when used in a well-designed setting, it is able to highlight the style direction and reproduce the necessary flavor. Dark-colored equipment is traditional for interiors in the following areas: glamor, . In a high-tech bathroom, a black toilet will emphasize the futuristic tone. For art deco and glamorous trends it will help to reproduce a luxurious environment. No matter how you look at it, dark color always connotes drama and sophistication.
The next advantage of a black toilet is the “unusuality” of this approach. It can not only surprise, but even amaze, since you don’t often see dark-colored plumbing fixtures in an apartment.
Selecting a toilet design with a black toilet
A black toilet looks especially good in a bathroom decorated in white, black and gray tones and in their various combinations.
But placing a black toilet in front of a wall of the same color most likely cannot be considered a win-win and universal combination. Because this solution creates at least a not very cozy environment in the toilet. In addition, the black toilet dissolves against the background of an identical range of tiles, thereby losing most of its effectiveness.
The best color solution is a black toilet located in front of a light-colored wall. If you plan to decorate the toilet surfaces with dark tiles, then you need to create an accent light area behind the device.
Black bathroom equipment looks harmonious against the background of light gray or completely white wall structures. In this case, it is better to choose black or checkerboard (black and white) flooring.
If you are not afraid of darkness, you can install the toilet against a dark wall. However, before making your final decision, weigh everything carefully. First, try to compare the degree of expressiveness of dark equipment surrounded by white and dark walls.
To create a rich, glamorous atmosphere, you need to add the shine of precious metals - silver or gold - to the design of the toilet.
To reproduce a chic atmosphere, you can try combining dark sanitaryware and tiles imitating granite, marble or other natural material in achromatic shades in the bathroom interior.
Combination of black toilet and other sanitaryware
Since you have chosen a black toilet in the interior, is it a prerequisite to install a black one in the bathroom, or? Not at all. If the decor of the room combines light and dark colors, the elements of the equipment can also contrast with each other. Next to a white bathroom, a dark cabinet with a black sink or a black toilet surrounded by white tiles will look great.
If you really want to, of course, you can only use black equipment. Plumbing fixtures (valves, taps, mixers, etc.) can also be made in the same color. Although, equipment of golden or silver color next to dark sanitaryware looks no less beautiful.
