In our Westhill bathroom, fitted furniture wraps around the corner and a broad worktop connects the basin and toilet positions. The same room has illuminated recesses beside the bath. That combination gives the countertop a chance to do something more useful than holding every bathroom product permanently. Bath supplies have a place beside the bath, while the counter can take the small things you set down when washing.
If you are planning a similar corner run, mark where you will stand and where you can reach comfortably. Try setting out a handwash bottle, a toiletry bag and a folded hand towel on a mock-up. The inside corner might be fine for something that stays put, while the nearer stretch is better kept clear for whatever you are using. This is an easy way to make a generous-looking worktop work harder every day.
