Cleaning Blind Spots: Easy to Sweep Determined by Design

Several details in a guest room deliberately designed to eliminate cleaning blind spots: all furniture is either fixed to the wall, suspended 150mm off the ground, or completely flush with the floor without any gaps that cannot be swept; the junction between wall and floor uses an inwardly recessed coved trim instead of an outwardly protruding skirting; the interface between the bathtub and wall is finished with a curved transition of the same material instead of silicone sealant; and outlet and switch plates are flush with the wall. The image presents these treatments as several close-up nodal points side-by-side, with common incorrect practices marked with red circles for comparison. Avoid: furniture leaving narrow, unsweepable gaps, using outwardly protruding skirting, using silicone sealant for wet area corners, plates protruding from the wall.

一間客房裡幾處刻意消除清潔死角的細節:所有家具不是固定在牆上懸空 150mm,就是完全落地無縫,絕不留一道掃不到的窄縫;牆與地的交接不做外凸的踢腳而是內凹的陰角收邊;浴缸與牆的交界以同材質的圓弧收頭而非矽利康填縫;插座與開關的面板與牆面齊平。畫面以幾個近景節點並列呈現這些處理,並在旁邊以紅圈標示常見的錯誤做法作為對照。避免:家具留出無法清掃的窄縫、使用外凸踢腳、以矽利康填縫處理濕區轉角、面板凸出牆面。
