Bathroom Vanity Design Considerations
Single vs. Double Vanities
A single vanity works beautifully in a guest bathroom or primary bathroom for a single occupant. A double vanity (also called a dual vanity) eliminates morning traffic jams in a busy household, giving each person their own space to prepare for the day.
Vanity Size & Configuration
The ideal vanity size depends on your bathroom layout and storage needs. A narrow powder room might accommodate a 24″ vanity. A spacious master bath might feature a 60″ or 72″ double vanity with abundant storage.
Custom vanities can be designed in virtually any size—accounting for plumbing locations, wall angles, and your specific spatial constraints.
Storage & Organization
What needs to live in your bathroom vanity? Daily essentials like toothbrushes and deodorant. Hair styling tools. Skincare products. First aid supplies. Medications. Custom bathroom vanities can be designed with specific storage for all of these items.

Luxury Bathroom Design Trends
Spa-Like Aesthetics
Modern luxury bathrooms feel like personal spas. Think spa-quality materials, soothing color palettes, beautiful lighting, and thoughtful organization. Your vanity sets the tone for this luxury aesthetic.
Minimalist Elegance
Clean lines, floating vanities, hidden storage, and minimal visual clutter create a serene, modern bathroom. Custom cabinetry with hidden hardware achieves this look beautifully.
Modern Rustic
Warm wood finishes, natural stone, vintage-inspired hardware, and earthy tones create a modern rustic aesthetic. Custom vanities in reclaimed or distressed wood achieve this style perfectly.
Transitional Style
Blending contemporary clean lines with traditional warmth, transitional bathrooms are timeless and sophisticated. Custom vanities with classic proportions and contemporary finishes embody this aesthetic.
The ROI of Luxury Bathroom Remodeling
According to the National Association of Home Builders, a mid-range bathroom remodel returns approximately 60-70% of its cost. A luxury bathroom remodel, with high-end custom cabinetry, can return 50-60% or more—but the real value is living with a beautiful, functional space every day.
Beyond resale value, luxury bathroom cabinetry delivers immediate ROI in terms of quality of life:
- Start each day in a beautiful, organized space
- Enjoy a spa-like retreat in your own home
- Experience perfect functionality tailored to your needs
- Appreciate quality craftsmanship every time you open a drawer
