All About Bathroom Vanities
A bathroom vanity can be consider as a focal point of your bathroom, big or small, as it takes up a lot space. That’s why, it is very important to choose the right one – from the material, to colour, to fixtures and placement. Here are some of the things that you need to consider before choosing your bathroom vanity:
• Bathroom Space – As mentioned above, placing a bathroom warehouse will require some space. So, if your bathroom is just a small one, consider choosing a compact vanity. Compact vanities are usually smaller or taller but not too wide in design. Some are even enclosed with cabinet and sink. Your bathroom vanity should also be proportion to the overall space. Carefully measure the area where you will be placing the bathroom vanity to ensure that what you’re buying will fit perfectly.
• Placement – Apart from space, placement is also crucial in installing bathroom vanities. You wouldn’t want to be hassled while using it, so ensure that you will have enough space to move around. If it’s near the door, check if the path is clear when the door is opened or closed.
• Single or Double Sink? – This is also a choice you need to make with full consideration. Obviously, a single sink vanity is perfect for small spaces like a guest bathroom or a tiny powder room; while a double-sink vanity is for a larger bathroom like the masters bedroom. While some people don’t mind sharing a sink, others prefer doing their morning and evening rituals alone so they can relax at the same time. That is why you really need to consider the people who will be using the vanity.
• Material – The material of a bathroom vanity plays a huge role in its overall functionality and design. Its look should be in-sync with the existing ambience of your bathroom. For a vintage or classic look, solid wood and glass are advisable. For a more modern look, you can choose stone, granite, laminate or tile. For functionality, the longer lasting ones are stone and granite as well as solid hardwood. For a more customisable material, choose laminate. In order to decide more easily, it’s best to seek assistance from an expert builder/supplier. Take good advice from the professionals and you will surely reach an informed decision.
Type of Bathroom renovation – The usual types that you can choose from are Cabinet-Style, Pedestal/Console Sinks, and Wall-Mount/Floating bathroom vanities.
Cabinet Style Vanity is the most classic and common among all the types. It is considered practical and multi-functional because it also serves as storage. There are a lot of designs available in Perth Bathroom Showrooms so when choosing the one for you, keep your standards high and your goals in mind.
Pedestal/Console Sink is perfect for very small bathrooms because it’s simply a single standing sink. One drawback, though, is lack of storage, so you may need to buy a separate piece of cabinetry.
Wall-mount/Floating Vanity is attached to your wall and usually features a modern design. The great thing about this type is that it gives an extra space on the floor, creating an illusion that your bathroom is bigger.
