For a primary or master bathroom, type and amount of storage is often a main concern in terms of choosing a new bathroom vanity. Even (or especially) in small bathrooms, efficiency and functionality are extremely important. But the priorities and considerations for half bathrooms and guest bathrooms is a little different. There’s less that needs to be stored, and space is often at a premium.
In a time where manufacturers are capable of resurrecting any furniture design from almost any point in history, it isn’t much surprise that some older styles are making a comeback. At the forefront in bathroom and kitchen cabinetry is a revival of the Shaker style. Shaker bathroom vanities in particular are finding a new home in warm, casual contemporary bathrooms, with their elegant combin
You might think of white as being sort of a blah color – the neutral, the default, the blank slate. But when it comes to bathroom design in general and bathroom vanities in particular, white is one of the best and most flexible colors out there. It helps keep a bathroom looking clean, bright, open, and large, and unlike some wood tones, it isn’t limited to a single design style. In fac
I’ve written about very small bathroom vanities before, but I feel like it’s a topic worth revisiting. For most bathroom vanities “small” means either 36″ or 30″ wide, but anyone with a genuinely small bathroom knows that isn’t really all that small. Personally? I have a very, very small bathroom myself, and I know that every inch counts. So, in the spir
I’ve spent most of my life living in places with bathrooms so small they’re practically an afterthought. Now, I love a good long soak in a big, deep whirlpool as much as the next gal, but I know from personal experience that sometimes the most pressing matters in bathroom design don’t have anything to do with bubbles. Even with a very well designed, storage smart bathroom vanity,
Building an antique inspired bathroom isn’t easy. After all, you certainly don’t want to expose real antiques to the harsh, humid, and ever changing environment of the bathroom, and replicas designed specifically for the bathroom aren’t always easy to come by. Traditional bathroom vanities easier to find, but truly ornate antique styles – with elaborate wood carvings and ex
Despite the recent surge in popularity of modern design, traditional style bathrooms are still easily the most popular. From rich wood finishes to beautiful hand carved detailing, there’s something about traditional design that people find familiar, luxurious, and beautiful. But actually building a traditional bathroom can be challenging, from choosing a stone vanity top to finding a matchin
Modern design is becoming more and more popular, especially in bathroom design. Sleek, simple lines create an open, inviting space perfectly suited for a contemporary lifestyle, while the dark wood tones and industrial grays make for a clean, sophisticated vibe. And building a modern bathroom is easier than ever. These days, many manufacturers sell not just the vanity alone (as they do with many t
Bathroom remodels can be a big headache from start to finish. Ripping out tile, redoing plumbing, and totally re-envisioning your space is stressful, messy, time consuming, and almost always expensive. But fortunately there are lots of ways to make the job simpler and more straightforward. One of the best ways to simplify your bathroom remodel is to shop for bathroom vanity sets rather than just
Choosing a new bathroom vanity should be simple – you find something that looks good and fits your space, buy it, and install it. But often the reality is far more complicated. Finding multiple matching bathroom vanities in different sizes, or even just getting your hands on a vanity with a matching storage cabinet or mirror can be a lot harder than you might think. Most manufacturers have o
