Latest Designer Bathroom Ideas and How To Guides for your Home

When installing a contemporary toilet as part of a bathroom design or remodelling project, there are a vast range of options available from a wide array of brands. The toilet, a bathroom essential, can all too often be among the most forgettable bathroom fixtures. Several brands, though, make truly interesting and memorable toilets. These include Armitage Shanks, Bahaus, Catalano, Laufen, Roca, and Villeroy & Boch – all of which make elegant contemporary toilets.

Ideal Standard, though, has perhaps the most diverse range and sheer number of styles of any brand.

Their Kyomi, Standard White, and Standard Purity Close Coupled models all have exposed cisterns. Constructed of glistening white porcelain, these tanked toilets make excellent additions to traditional bathrooms. Ideal Standard also has a range of wall hung, hidden cistern models in the same model lines already listed.

For those looking for something other than a traditional toilet shape, Ideal Standard has a range of creatively shaped contemporary toilets including the Round Wall Hung and the Back to Wall models. These essentially resemble like ash cans in appearance.

The Alto Wall Hung is even more interestingly shaped – something like an inverted pyramid – and the Jasper Morrison Wall Hung and Create Edge Wall Hung float above the bathroom floor, achieving a look something akin to a slender park bench. Ideal Standard also has a bidet fixture: the Studio Bidet. Floor-standing and cast in pure porcelain with chrome taps, the Ideal Standard Studio Bidet would make an interesting addition to any luxury bathroom.
