5 Tips for Designing Your Bathroom Vanity

Designing your bathroom display can be quite simple. With the right information, you can quickly put together the proper components to design your perfect bathroom. Here are some simple ideas for designing your bathroom vanity.

Settle On a Layout

How will your bathroom vanity look? Depends on the bathroom size, you can choose between a one-wall, L-shaped, U shaped, or galley vanity design. Most bathrooms use a simple, one-wall vanity. But, if you have extra space, you can choose to have the vanity wrap around to a perpendicular wall, forming an “L” shape. For extra-large bathrooms, the vanity can wrap around to both vertical walls, creating a “U” shape. You have the option of setting vanities on two parallel, opposite walls, which is called a galley design. This is excellent for walk-through bathroom layouts. Remember that your bathroom layout will also know the number of vanity cabinets needed to fit the space, which will affect the price.

Determine the Number of Sinks

The number of sinks you wish for your bathroom vanity will decide which vanity furniture you will need to buy. The size of your bathroom matters. You would not fit two separate sinks in a bathroom with less than 60 inches of vanity space.

Choose the Style

The cabinet door style that you prefer will eventually work as the base of your complete bathroom style. The Cabinet door style of Shaker, such as our Pepper Shaker, Nova Light Grey, Ice White, and Greystone cabinet styles, is perfect for modern design styles. Signature Brownstone and Pearl vanity doors are great for more fabulous bathroom designs.

Find the Right Countertop

When picking your vanity countertop, you will have to consider the material color, type, and cost. Keep in mind that the countertop you prefer will be coming into contact with moisture quite often. More flexible, porous elements such as laminate and wood are probably not suitable. Granite is a smart option for bathroom vanities, but it has to be properly maintained and sealed every couple of years ago. However, with proper maintenance, it is a durable and attractive option. Human-made quartz countertops are also a great option. Quartz and granite do tend to be pricier than cheaper materials like laminate. Still, you should consider the cost of possibly having to return the countertop further on down the line due to water damage.

Pick the Type of Sink Type

Bathroom sinks come in several installation types. Drop-in sinks are deposited into a chosen cut-out in your countertop, with edges that sit on top. These sinks are simple to install, but run the risk of getting dirt around the corners. Under mount sinks are aesthetically pleasing, particularly for contemporary bath styles. Clips underneath your countertop mount these. However, installation does complicated and would require the support of an expert. Vessel sinks are of bowl-style that sit on top of the countertop and are also an attractive option.

Sink material and color are also essential to consider and will depend on your overall bathroom style. Do you prefer traditional ceramic(s) or a seamless stone sink that blends in with your countertop? These choices will depend on your aesthetic and budget.

Conclusion

After you have figured out all of these factors, you have enough knowledge to begin planning your dreams’ bathroom vanity. Once your vanity design is completed, additional design elements such as hardware and fixture finishes and paint colors can be decided upon.
