- By incorporating bathroom furniture into your new bathroom design may cost you more but well worth it!

- In designing your bathroom part 7 we look at showering options for your bathroom.

If you want to keep costs down and double up your bath as a shower enclosure, then the bath/shower mixer is the easiest and cheapest option. You won't have the best showering experience, as the power a tap produces won't be anywhere as near as effective as an electric shower or a shower value unit but it will work. Usually bath/shower mixer taps come with a shower head holder, you might want to invest in a riser rail to hold the headset on the wall.

In designing your bathroom part 6, we will show you what options are available and what the modern taps now have to offer.

- Toilet designs for your bathroom old and new.
Close Coupled Toilet - the most popular toilet design. The close coupled toilet has been the standard toilet design for over 40years, an oval shape pan and square cistern sat on top. There are now many close coupled designs to choose from- round, square and sleek space savers. There are also two styles of close coupled, standard (exposed waste pipe) or back to wall (flush against the wall, hiding the waste pipe). Like all older toilet designs the close coupled had a handle flush, but all modern toilet designs have adopted the push button flush.
