Guide to Designing Your Bathroom Vanity
Before deciding on finishes, fixtures, or color, you need to know where your vanity is going to go, and how big of a vanity you need. A common vanity layout is horizontal vanities with one cabinetry section. This layout is efficient with its available storage and counter space.
How many sinks do you want? Many homeowners prefer double sinks, space permitting. Vanities that are smaller than 60 inches wide typically have one sink. If greater than 60, you can accommodate an additional sink, or use the extra room for counter space.
You can pick a type of sink like an undermount, drop-in, vessel, or wall-mount. Then you pick what color you want, and what material it is made of. Undermount sinks are popular because it provides a seamless look. Vessel sinks are popular due to being able to choose patterns, designs, and custom shapes. They are more work to clean, however. Drop-in sinks have lips that rest on top of your counter.
When picking fixtures, be coordinated with the rest of your vanity design and color selection. Settle on a finish and then choose a style.
Do you want wall-mounted lighting, recessed lighting, or sconce lights?
Do you want a built-in mirror? Or maybe a decorative mirror?
What kind of cabinet pulls and knobs do you want?
Do you want a detailed faucet design? Or perhaps more simple and modern?
Time to focus on vanity design. Traditional vanity cabinets have you consider: paint vs. stain, the color you want, different door styles, and whether you would prefer drawers vs. doors vs. pullouts.
Other options to consider include freestanding vanities or a floating vanity.
There are a number of materials you can pick from. You might even have leftovers from a kitchen remodel. Options include quartz, marble, granite, marble, laminate, concrete, wood, and solid surface.
The most popular options are quartz and granite, due to durability, high-quality material, and designer patterns. Marble tends to scratch more easily and is less moisture tolerant. Wood and laminate are budget-friendly but don't tolerate moisture well either.
