Our Cults cloakroom combines a wall-mounted basin with an integrated towel holder below it. Marble-effect metro tiles and a patterned floor remain visible around the fitting. The basin and towel form one handwashing point, which is useful where every extra piece on the floor or wall changes how the room works.
To compare this arrangement with a separate towel ring, hang a real towel at the proposed height. Check whether it drapes into the space used by your knees or blocks the area you want to wipe beneath the basin. Then see whether a guest can reach it comfortably after washing without turning towards the doorway. The value of an integrated holder is easiest to judge with the fabric in place. It should leave a tidy handwashing position while doing the everyday job a separate fitting would otherwise take on.
