For the second service, often a luxury, a toilet, a sink and a drain for the washing machine were already sufficient. The construction methods and distribution types are almost the same throughout the country.<\/p>\n<p>Although many believe that the repetition of these typologies over the years was due to the lack of imagination of the designers, it is necessary to evaluate what was the innovative impact of the companies involved in the production of the furnishing elements.<\/p>\n<p>Who would have thought and proposed to put a framed walk-in shower on an 80&#215;80 ceramic shower tray in the main bathroom?<\/p>\n<p>Today, considering the amount of products related to the bathroom furniture sector, there is complete freedom\u00a0to satisfy the needs of each customer without having to repeat the same pattern for everyone.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;fsize-16&#8243;]\n<h2 id=\"the-project\"><strong>The project<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Many people could consider an older house like a car: once it has reached a certain number of years it must be changed because it is now old and far from current family needs.<\/p>\n<p><em>This way of thinking too quickly overlooks the potential that an old apartment could offer; in fact, it is often the dated houses that offer interesting positions and generous surfaces as well as recalling the affections of a lifetime.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The case study belongs to a family wishing to renovate the finishes of their home and <strong>improve some spaces<\/strong> of the house, <strong>without having to distort its structure.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The activity therefore focused on the best position of some partitions and internal doors as well as on the redistribution of the bathrooms.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10px&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;16062&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1643119420969{border-radius: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;fsize-12&#8243;]\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Current situation<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10px&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;16067&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1643119427386{border-radius: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;fsize-12&#8243;]\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Demolitions<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;10px&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;16072&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1643119433633{border-radius: 1px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;fsize-12&#8243;]\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Definitive project<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;30px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;fsize-16&#8243;]\n<h2 id=\"main-bathroom\">Main bathroom<\/h2>\n<p><em>Until the dawn of the 2000s, the main bathroom of every home had to be a representative room for the home: colored sanitary ware had to be present; 3-hole faucet; a bathtub and lots and lots of space.
