Reimagining bathroom design with Roca

Date Added: 17.02.2023

The bathroom can be a tricky place to design. It’s one of the most heavily used areas in a house and often has to fulfil different roles – a playground for children to enjoy with brightly coloured toys, a relaxing space for adults to enjoy a long soak and a place to get ready for the day.

Creating a space that does all that is no mean feat, and bathroom experts are often expected to have all the answers. With a bit of thought, bathroom woes can be solved easily and effectively. To help, Natalie Bird, Brand Manager for Roca, has compiled a handy bathroom furniture guide…

Identify opportunities

If a customer has approached you about bathroom furniture, chances are they are looking to improve their current set-up. Help to identify the areas that cause angst and make suggestions based on what they tell you. This is often the best place to start and gives you an idea of their project’s scope and budget. 

Consider a variety of options

By understanding your customer’s pain points, you’ll be in a position to offer them a wide range of options to choose from. 

For those looking to modernise the look of their bathroom, the timeless Mediterranean hues of the Roca Ona Collection are sure to appeal. With delicate shapes, high-quality brassware and eco credentials, the Ona collection is a beautiful bathroom upgrade. 

For customers who desire more storage, vanity units with drawers offer more space for essential items like toiletries and toilet rolls without compromising on style. 

And for those with trinkets to display, a storage unit with open shelves such as the Ona Delta column unit will allow just that.

Be space savy

Wall-hung furniture has several advantages over traditional floor-standing options. For one, it keeps the floor clear and makes cleaning easier. More of the floor on show also makes a small bathroom
appear bigger. 

The Ona collection has several wall-hung options, giving customers plenty of choices when redesigning their bathroom. Where you position the basin on furniture can also provide additional useful space. For example, countertop or asymmetric basins allow for handy space to either side of the bowl, which can be used to display toiletries, or for accessories such as the Ona collection soap dispenser, tray or tumbler.

Details that matter

Bathroom showrooms and fitters know how important the details are. From finishes that stand the test of time to neutral shades that will never go out of fashion, the vanity unit is often at the centre of the design.

Brassware is also as important as the big-ticket items - it’s not only stylish but also offers potential energy savings for the homeowner. Ona’s on trend cylindrical design combined with Roca’s Cold Start Technology helps to reduce hot water consumption by only delivering cold when operating from the basin mixers traditional start position. Hot water is only delivered when the user actively turns the lever to call for it.

Investing in other innovative features such as the Supraglaze® coating on Roca’s ceramic basins and the exclusive Stonex® material on Roca baths will ensure the bathroom will still look beautiful in years to come. 

The Roca Ona collection is available to all Roca life partners and select dealers.
