How do I decide between matt black, black glass or black-framed fittings for my bathroom?

Think about look and maintenance. Matt black finishes, such as many taps and radiators here, resist fingerprints and hide water marks, so they suit busy family bathrooms; black glass gives a sleeker, reflective feel and works well if you want a touch of luxury. Black-framed shower screens add architectural structure without closing the room off, especially if you choose a plain 6mm glass screen or a grid pattern to create interest. If you want a warm scheme, pair matt black with wood; for high contrast, use white tiles.

What size vanity or basin should I choose for a cloakroom, ensuite or family bathroom?

Match the unit to your space and use. For a small cloakroom, a 450mm freestanding or cloakroom vanity works well; ensuites suit 560mm or 585mm corner vanities to save space while offering storage. In a family bathroom, a 650mm freestanding or a back-to-wall vanity from the 1165mm to 1564mm range gives you more basin and storage space. Measure available floor and door clearance first so the unit won't crowd the room or block access.

Will a black shower screen make my bathroom feel smaller, and which style keeps the space open?

Not if you choose the right style. A black-framed or grid screen gives definition but the glass still lets light through, so it keeps the room feeling airy; pick a plain 6mm fixed or sliding 1200mm screen for the most open look. If you have a bath, a curved or folding 1000mm screen in matt black can contain splashes without creating visual bulk. For very small stalls, a sliding enclosure or a clear 6mm panel minimises obstruction while keeping the black detailing.

How do I pick the right size heated towel radiator for warmth and drying?

Height and width affect both heat output and towel space. Slimer 950 x 500mm or 1200 x 500mm flat-panel radiators suit compact bathrooms or ensuites, whereas taller models such as 1600 x 600mm or 1800 x 600mm offer more drying area and stronger heat for family bathrooms. If you dry multiple towels or have a larger room, go for a 1600mm-plus height; for a small cloakroom, a 950mm model is usually sufficient.

Are black taps and accessories durable and easy to keep looking good every day?

Yes; many black items here are made with water-resistant, easy-clean finishes and matte coatings that resist fingerprints, such as the Architeckt and Merano taps and the slotted pop-up wastes. Wipe them with a soft cloth after use and avoid abrasive cleaners to keep the finish neat. Note that textured or matte surfaces conceal marks better, while high-gloss black may show water spots more readily.
