Xiao Ming got off work very early on Friday. He rolled up his sleeves and worked harder. He swept the floor once and used various magic tools on the Internet to clean the bathroom. Guess what on Sunday, it was time to After cleaning , it’s exactly the same mess. If you don’t want to clean every day, you have to solve these problems from the source.
So at the beginning of the design, how should we eliminate the problem of sanitary dead corners? Xiaoming summarized their living wisdom from so many design cases and feedback from fans and friends after living there, and launched a total of 6 good designs, and goodbye to sanitary blind spots .
a. Bathroom :
The bathroom carries the most water-related activities, so compared to other spaces in the home, the bathroom is the place where dirt is most likely to hide, so we must pay attention to the content of this place. stand up.
① [Wet and dry separation]
1. Washing machines, bathroom cabinets or other items are often placed in toilets. These items have a common characteristic that being in a humid environment for a long time will lead to a decrease in their service life, internal parts are damaged, and wooden The product may deform due to moisture. Therefore, it is best to carry out dry and wet separation design, which can better extend their service life.
2. We should know that humid environments are prone to breed bacteria and cockroaches, and wet and dry partitions can effectively avoid the evaporation of water vapor. To a certain extent, ensures the dryness of the space, reducing the occurrence of such bacteria, dirt and mildew. possibility. It won't become muddy due to the fusion of water vapor and dirt.
② [Wall-mounted toilet]
The wall-mounted toilet is suspended in the air, with a certain distance from the ground enough for cleaning tools to enter and exit. Therefore, it is not easy to leave hygienic dead corners, and it is easier to clean. In addition, the bathroom is a relatively humid place, which can easily breed bacteria. For those who don't like cleaning, encountering these corners of the bathroom is really a headache.
This kind of wall-mounted toilet has more advantages than a sitting toilet. Its water storage curved line has an air supply function, which can effectively prevent odor from returning to the bathroom from the pipe. The water tank is hidden in the wall, and the noise will be greatly reduced.
③ [Suspended basin cabinet]
The bathroom cabinet is designed to be suspended in the air. This treatment can prevent moisture from intruding into the bathroom cabinet. The vacated cabinet below allows water vapor to spread on the ground, reducing moisture intrusion. The service life of the bathroom cabinet can be longer. If combined with the wet and dry separation design, the sanitary dead corners of the entire dry area will no longer exist, and it will be very easy to clean.
④【Undercounter Basin】
Above counter basin is relatively difficult and troublesome to clean, and because it is relatively high, it is not suitable for children. The intersection with the countertop (especially the cheap wash basin) will be deformed. The sink cabinet is prone to leakage and sanitary dead corners. If the installation is not careful, the exposed glass glue will turn yellow in a short time.
The advantage of the undercounter basin is that it will not damage the flatness of the countertop when used, and it is more easier to clean . In terms of visual effects, undercounter basins are more neat and beautiful, so they are more popular among people. Compared with above-the-counter basins, under-the-counter basins are more expensive and more complicated to install.
b. Kitchen :
The reason why the kitchen is dirty is not only easy to produce dirty things, but also related to too many dead corners in the kitchen. Most of these sanitary dead spots come from design errors in decoration. There are two main types of stains in the kitchen: oil smoke and water.
① [Countertop water retaining strip]
Where the chopping board is located, where the work surface is closely connected to the cabinet, mold is most likely to occur. This is because food placed on the table is often washed in the moment, and the water on the food flows and accumulates under the countertop. The water near the sink can flow back to the sink on its own and will not cause mold growth on the countertop.
②【 Glazed Tiles 】
The best choice for kitchen tiles are glazed tiles because of their bright colors, low water absorption, easier decontamination, high strength , and prevention of bacterial growth. In terms of color, since there are no mold, human trampling and other factors, it can be selected in white.
Remember when choosing ceramic tiles, be sure to ask whether they are porcelain clay tiles . This type of tiles are not easy to clean and have a poor service life. In addition, if the concave-convex textured kitchen tiles are used for a long time, they will easily leave dirt in the texture gaps.
