Space: Out and Up… and out again.

A bathroom vanity has a unique design when it comes to home improvement. From width, height and depth these options are not part of a predetermined setup in your home.

Mounting Options

There are three options in mounting, one is the standard, and “free standing” which hoists itself on four legs and rests directly on the floor. This option is built in a desk or chest like fashion. It can be space consuming, but it can also in turn offer a lot of storage options and the availability of multiple sinks. This is the most common option and probably the easiest to find prebuilt in a design that appeals to you.

The second option is a wall mounted with appears to float, as it doesn’t touch the ground. This is a really popular choice in those seeking a more modern look. It’s also great option for those who have smaller bathrooms, you might compromise on storage space but it creates an open floor and creates the illusion of space.

Sinks and Counter Necessities
