Put your thinking space in order
It is your private space. Where you shed inhibitions and masks. Where you can be yourself and relax. Where you are most creative. After all, how many times have you waged navy wars in the bathtub or fought aliens in the shower ! It reflects your personality and your innermost thoughts. We at Hindware realize all this and more. That is why all our products make your bathroom a living space where you can recharge your batteries.
You spend at least one-third of your life in the bathroom. Therefore, it is imperative that you take care while furnishing it. Hindware takes this aspect very seriously and to make your job a lot easier, after careful research and selection, we present to you some simple yet effective ways to get the maximum out of your bathroom space.
Whether you soak your worries in a tub with whirlpool jets or wash them away with a strong showerhead, this space reflects your individuality. Whatever your choice may be, stick to the following and you will do fine. |

 |
Choose your bath according to need and space. If you have the space, go for a relaxing whirlpool tub. Remember it doesn’t have to be huge. As long as you can lie down in it comfortably, it’s a good size. |
|

 |
Understand the water supply system of your house. There’s nothing more disappointing than to step into the shower and find only a trickle of water pattering on your head. Speak to your plumber and check for water pressure requirements. |
|
| |
 |
A small tap can make or break your design. Spend some time and yes, money. Keep in mind the water pressure levels. Ceramic discs are fast replacing the screw down valves. Go for a mixer tap where hot and cold water are blended to emerge from a single spout. Check for warranty. You have put in good money, make sure it lasts. |
|
| |
 |
Let’s get down to the flooring. Although all ceramic tiles are extremely water-resistant, only the glazed tiles are fully waterproof. Opt for a matte glaze and a slight texture to minimize the risk of slipping. If you have kids use special anti-slip/anti-skid tiles. |
|
| |
 |
Your door is an important part of the bathroom design. It is the gateway to your personal space! Update old doors with new handles. If you have slick matte-chrome taps, choose pared-down, matte-chrome door handles. Likewise, if your bathroom is traditional, a decorative brass handle and door plate will be more fitting, if you have kids, use a simple bolt high on the door lest they get locked inside. |

Choose your shower well. Shower panels are a wise and economical choice. A powerful overhead can be more convenient but be sure not to forget the shower tray. |
| |
 |
Next on the list is your basin. Are you going to use it only for hand washing ? or where you will wash your face and clean your teeth ? Choose your basin style according to your need. Curved bowls are easier to clean but angular bowls increase the vibrancy of your space. For extra storage, choose basins with wooden cabinets underneath. If you have kids, make sure the height is appropriate and it doesn’t have sharp edges. Think carefully before making your decision. |

 |
It may not be a pleasant topic but it cannot be negated. Yes, your Water Closet. Go for the ultra-clean, Starwhite toilets. The lines should be sleek and neatly cut. This reduces the area where germs could breed. Save water with Dual Flush options. If your space in small, go for wall-hung closets as they take very little room and enlarge your space. If, however, space is not an issue, go in for the coupled or one-piece closets as they give more character to your space. |
| |
 |
A successful lighting scheme should bounce off your space. Finalise your bathroom design before you get to the lighting. A single pendant light in the centre provides the most basic illumination. For those relaxed moments, install mood-enhancing uplights or accent lights. |
