How to Design a Modern Bath-Vanity Selection

December 20, 2014 Leave a Comment

Last year at this exact time, I was just beginning an entire master bath renovation.  The bath was to be “Modern Zen”, which to my ears means clean lines and peaceful. Before I started creating this Modern Bath, per my usual, I organized the order in which I would build this design.

STEP ONE:  Modern Bath Design ~ Select a vanity!! The vanity is the anchor in which you begin to layer. The “Vanity Anchor”  gives weight to the room, and allows you to build from it!

When selecting a vanity, whether for a Modern Bath, a traditional, transitional or rustic bathroom, begin to detail your needs. Which brings us to

Step Two: Detail your needs!! Does your vanity need two sinks or one? open storage or closed? For instance, if your vanity is for a  guest bath, open storage is fine, if for a master bath, you will have more things,so you may prefer closed. Here are options for both.

Closed Storage found in this Fresca Largo Black Double sink

Open Storage in this Fresca Potenza.

These are just 2 of MANY options available, but it takes time, and its worth it!! After detailing your size needs, its time to research color availability!  Come up with at least 5 options that you like, then narrow them down based on color availability. If you aren’t working with a designer, you will want to determine if you want a light or dark color scheme! Which brings us to:

Step 3– Color me happy! Choose a color!- Typically when designing a Modern Bath, I go extreme. Extreme Dark ( Wenge) or extreme light ( White). To begin, select at least 4 or 5 options that fit the size you need, then narrow them down based on color.

The very last thing I do to create a beautiful vanity is select the fixtures and the hardware, but that is an entirely different post in itself !! are you in the midst of a remodel? or ready to redesign your bathroom?? Let me know! I would love to help! I hope this has helped you get a start on creating the bathroom of your dreams!!!
