I have a small cloakroom, which modern basin type will save the most space without looking awkward?

For very small cloakrooms you'll usually opt for a corner basin or a compact wall-hung model; the range includes corner basins and slim wall-hung basins like the Ceramica Asti (400 x 220mm) that keep the floor clear. A wall-hung basin creates visual space beneath the basin and makes cleaning easier, while a corner basin tucks neatly out of the way if floor space is extremely tight. Both styles are commonly offered in gloss white finishes to keep the room feeling bright.

How do I choose between a countertop basin, recessed basin and a wall-hung basin for my bathroom design?

If you want a furniture-style look and extra worktop space, a countertop basin such as the Affine Rectangular 460 x 325mm sits on a vanity unit and becomes a focal point. A recessed basin, like the Ceramica 600–800mm curved recessed options, drops into a worktop for a neat, integrated finish that's great for longer runs of storage. Choose a wall-hung basin when you need a minimalist, space-saving solution and want exposed floor underneath.

Which basin material is best if I want something hard-wearing and easy to keep looking new?

Vitreous china and ceramic are the most hard-wearing and low-maintenance options; many basins in the range are ceramic or vitreous china in gloss white, resisting stains and cleaning well with mild cleaners. Resin, cast marble and polymarble give you sculpted looks and gentler edges, but can be more prone to surface scratching than glazed ceramic. If you want a luxury natural feel, marble options are available but need gentler care to avoid etching.

How many tap holes should I choose and what does each option mean for the tap you buy?

Basins are offered with 0, 1 or 2 tap holes, so you should match the hole count to the taps you plan to fit; single tap hole basins suit a mixer or mono lever tap, while two-hole basins accept separate hot and cold taps. A basin with zero holes is ideal if you prefer wall-mounted or furniture-mounted taps. Remember the basins are sold without brassware, so order the taps that match the hole configuration you choose.

What size basin should I buy for a family bathroom with a long vanity unit?

For a long vanity you can pick a wide countertop or semi-recessed basin, the range includes larger widths such as 620 x 360mm countertop basins and recessed options up to 1050mm or 850mm in the Ceramica semi-recessed range. A wider basin or a double-bowl furniture run gives you more working area and helps when multiple people use the bathroom at once. If you have limited depth, look at the 351–450mm depth brackets to ensure the basin doesn't overhang the unit.
