Invented by Christophe de Rosiers, that installed the first model between 1600 and 1700 at the Versailles Palace, where the French royal family lived at that time, the bidet is commonly used for intimate hygiene in countries such as Italy or Japan, less in other cultures like Great Britain or France, the country that gave birth to this bathroom fixture. We have already talked about the history of the bidet and its diffusion in the world, so today we want to talk about its location in the bathroom: which model or typology is more functional to the needs of your spaces and how to choose the proper model to fit the furniture in your bathroom.
How to choose the bidet
The choice of the bidet must be done according with the toilet bowl, because they are the two sanitary ware dedicated to the hygiene and they can often make the bathroom environment stand out. For this reason, it is essential to choose sinuous, light shapes, in line with the general bathroom décor.
Nowadays there are several types of bidets, even in the suspended version. Flaminia has created many collections and lines of bidets, all 100% made in Italy pottery and high quality for designs.
Every bathroom has its bidet
Before choosing the proper bidet for our bathroom, you have to consider some perspectives. If we already talked about the ideal height for a better sanitary ware installation, we should also think about their size and thickness, so we can select the one that best suits the room’s dimension and surface area.
The bidet is also an important element because:
- It is very handy to use;
- It guarantees a perfect hygiene;
- it is convenient to clean.
Our advice is to prefer rounded lines when you want to give a sense of movement to the bathroom and give that unique softness of the curved lines, especially in rooms with large surfaces and less clear-cut angles. In squared and less spacious rooms, the geometry of shapes can help to place the furniture more easily.
Having a look at the Flaminia collections, you will find different types of bidets for typology, shade, lines and shape. All modern and classy, each different for style and design.
