I really think that you need to discard this way of thinking. At the end of the day everything dates so you should always choose what you like now. Your tastes will nearly always change over time. I know things I liked in my first home and second and third home - I would not do again. It is all a learning experience. Just choose what you like and can live with day in day out. Some things are worth waiting for. Re: Round Vs Rectangular basins 8Apr 22, 2009 7:18 am Helyn I just prefer round ones, I guess they probably are easier to clean because you dont have to get into the corners but I hadn't thought of that before. The square ones look more modern now but may date - round ones have certainly stood the test of time. Our house is not a very modern style anyway so I think square ones wouldn't look right in it. Probably part of my preferring round ones is part of my preferring classical traditional styles in general, not really a fan of the ultra-modern. ...wot she says, word for word! Life's too short too drink bad wine Re: Round Vs Rectangular basins 9Apr 22, 2009 7:59 am I love the square ones, I'm having the caroma liano I absolutley love them They may date in time but by then I will like all the new stuff coming in and will want to build or renovate again anyway So I just go with what I love at the time. Know where your going in life............... you may already be there Re: Round Vs Rectangular basins 10Apr 22, 2009 10:09 am We went for the square ones. I like the round ones also but if my square basins date I will renovate. It is true that everything dates so you should go for what you like now.

This is why I would never get a tattoo,. Re: Round Vs Rectangular basins 12Apr 22, 2009 12:25 pm I don't think I ever got over the reaction we all had to the first rectangular basins we saw in a display home. Very laboratory like, probably made worse by their size and the rest of the decor. I've seen nice ones since then but I still prefer round and think they can look more timeless. Re: Round Vs Rectangular basins 13Apr 22, 2009 12:49 pm I don't mind either, just don't give me an oval one! Personally we are going with a stepped vessel round basin, it was DP's idea, didn't really bother me so long as we didn't choose the oval ICK So glad the building is over, never again. Loooove our house, but still not quite sure it was worth all of the stress they put us through! Re: Round Vs Rectangular basins 15Apr 22, 2009 1:01 pm I prefer the circle shape more, it just appeared softer and also i like round shapes, they are better fung shui wise. I do like the square shapes too though, they look nice, they just arnt me. Building with PD - Regent 23 Cascades on Clyde Estate HomeOne Building Thread - PCI Completed - 28th August.

We went with the Caroma Liano too - square - because we had to have a countertop basin and I thought the square looked nicer with the ceasarstone benchtops, rather than a round countertop basin. We'll see how it goes anyway... =) Re: Round Vs Rectangular basins 19May 18, 2009 1:21 pm Definitely round. We have square in our current rental and they are the worst vanities ever. You need to be extra vigilant in your cleaning and I don't think they are particularly aesthetically pleasing either. Re: Round Vs Rectangular basins 20May 18, 2009 2:25 pm We have chosen one that is square on the outside and round inside.
