Whether you are remodeling, redecorating, adding decorative touches, or looking for more storage space, the bathroom furniture you buy is a reflection of your taste and style.
Bathroom Sinks
Capturing the charm of days gone by, the sleek, stylish fashion of modern life, or something in-between, there are numerous styles of bathroom furniture to choose from. Bathroom sinks, in particular, are a popular remodel item, because there is such a vast array of styles, including lavatory sinks and pedestals, and console sinks. With just this one piece of bathroom furniture you can achieve a new feel for the entire space.
“Lavatory sink” (also called “lav” or “lavatory”) is the common name for the basin placed atop a pedestal sink. Pedestal sinks are beautiful, stand-alone units; this item of bathroom furniture is almost like a bowl resting on a column, although the styles vary greatly. It is also possible to find wall-mounted lavatories, which are sink basins attached to the wall.
A console is bathroom furniture than truly looks and feels like furniture! Console sinks appear to be a cross between a pedestal sink and a bath vanity. You can find console sinks to fit any design style you choose, including pieces with two to four legs; consoles with moderate storage space; and more solid and modern versions that are essentially a basin atop slabs of the stone of your choice, looking like stone shelves jutting from the wall.
The prices for each style are all over the map, with lower-priced items generally available at home discount stores, and high-quality, high-priced pieces on offer through specialty shops or online.
Bathroom Cabinets
No matter if the size of your bathroom is minute or massive, you can find bathroom furniture to store your stuff! For stylish storage, look no further than bathroom cabinets.
The type of cabinet that works best is one that fits the bathroom. Sinks with built-in vanities are often seen in apartments, where there is rarely enough room for both a showpiece sink and extra storage space. In this case, sometimes the best option is to combine the two. You can remodel your smaller bathroom with a vanity sink that doubles as bathroom storage space, or select a console that provides just enough storage for towels or prettier bathroom accessories.
Another option is modular bathroom furniture. If you want more storage with an eye for style, this is a time-tested way to go. Some modular bathroom cabinets come with built-in lighting, which adds to their functionality. Others are especially built to nestle into corners – no fear of wasted space!
Some people choose to add an ÈtagËre to their bathroom, finding that a storage unit tucked cleanly over the toilet adds elegance and compact storage, as well. These popular units come in as many materials and finishes as there are bathroom styles, so no matter what design you want for your bathroom, you can find an ÈtagËre to do the job.
For those looking for smaller pieces of bathroom furniture try wall-mounted shelves and cabinets to show off your pretties or hide your more private items. Available with glass doors, wooden doors, and no doors at all, these cabinets are also designed to match virtually any design style in prices ranging from low- to high-end.
No matter what design you have for your bathroom, or what you want to spend, there is bathroom furniture for your pleasant powder room, gracious guest restroom, or magnificent master bathroom!
