A vanity space is more than just an area within your bathroom design. It is a place to practice your morning and evening beautifying rituals, a place for confidence and self-care, and a place to get ready for special occasions. With the bathroom vanity playing such an important role in our day-to-day lives, offering comfort as well as practicality, it’s essential to get the space just right.
A bathroom vanity should suit your getting ready and winding down rituals, offering the surface space, storage and reflection you need. Whatever your chosen modern interior style or your vanity space requirements, follow this step-by-step guide to design your perfect bathroom vanity.
A great place to start when designing your bathroom vanity is by selecting your furniture. This is the key feature of the space, around which all other elements are built. When selecting your furniture, it is important to consider both design and space. The style, colour and design need to reflect your personal tastes and chosen modern interior, especially as this is something that you’ll be using almost daily – it needs to be something you love! It’s also a good idea to consider both storage and surface space to ensure it can hold all your bathroom and beautifying essentials as well as provide the surface space you need when getting ready.
Our complete furniture selection offers a wide range of contemporary styles, colours and sizes to suit any modern space. For a clean and sleek aesthetic, opt for a Glide II furniture unit. Combining modern elegance with practicality, the Glide II collection promises a beautiful bathroom vanity design for any contemporary interior. If you’re looking for something classy and contemporary, the Avenue furniture range offers a sophisticated and minimalist choice with a stunning modern appearance. For something a bit more unique and eye-catching, opt for a Tambour furniture unit. This distinctive design brings a beautiful contrast of textures to your bathroom vanity design.
Once you’ve picked your furniture style, the next thing to think about is your basin. Your first option is to complete your furniture unit with an integrated basin, creating a sleek, all-in-one design. Alternatively, you can finish your furniture with a worktop. This allows for extra space around your basin for your beauty products and provides a wide choice of shapes and styles when selecting a countertop basin.
Once you’ve decided on your furniture and basin, the next thing to do is complete that section of the design by selecting your basin taps. The type of brassware you choose largely depends on the basin style you have opted for. An integrated basin allows you to select from a range of wall-mounted or deck-mounted brassware designs, whereas a countertop basin leaves you with stylish wall-mounted or tall mixer options.
Finding the right brassware for your design depends on both the modern aesthetic you have chosen for your bathroom interior and the experience you would like to have when using the taps. Our complete range of basin taps offers a wide selection of styles to suit every modern interior. Unique options, like our Lazo range, offer a playful interaction with your basin taps. Featuring a creative loop, Lazo presents a minimalist and gentle design. Elevate your brassware with a textured component, like our Limit range, which features a subtle fluted design that brings intrigue and luxury to modern design. For an all-round contemporary style, opt for our MPRO basin taps. MPRO features a beautiful minimalist contemporary appearance with both lever and crosshead handle options.
Now that you have the main feature in place, it’s time to turn it into a functional vanity space with a mirror and lighting. When conducting your daily beautifying rituals or getting ready for that special occasion, achieving the perfect lighting and reflection is essential.
Start by choosing your mirror. Consider the size you need to make getting ready a breeze and the shape that most suits your style. Our mirror selection offers a range of shapes and sizes, from conventional rectangles and circles to abstract organic shapes. With illuminated LED options available and various lighting temperatures to choose from, style your mirror to your personal tastes and beautifying needs.
When thinking about lighting, it’s important to consider appearance as well as achieving the perfect reflection. Our Tranquil lighting range offers three unique styles that elevate modern aesthetics. Framing your mirror with these lights on either side creates a beautifully symmetrical appearance while improving the visual within the mirror.
