The bathroom is one of the most used rooms in the home, meaning it can be tough to keep clean. When the space is well designed, it's totally possible to combine aesthetics and functionality to keep the area mess-free. 

Thinking about a bathroom reno? Check out our favourite options for bathroom flooring options and countertops. 

1. Integrated Faucet

Because they’re hung on the wall, these mounted faucets make cleaning countertops a breeze, plus, wall-mounted faucets are subject to way less grime buildup since water doesn’t pool around them.

2. A Minimalist Shower Screen

Traces of limescale and soap scum in the shower can be especially stubborn and keep your bathroom from looking spick-and-span. To minimize time spent scrubbing the shower, opt for a style with a minimalist wall rather than a sliding glass door that invites grime to build up in its track and hardware.

3. Wall-Mounted Toilet

A wall-mounted toilet can be quieter and more discreet, and save up to 10 inches of space compared to a conventional toilet. These models are easy to sweep and mop around, and they boast that visually pleasing clean-lined aesthetic we’ve been seeing in so many bathroom renovations.
