Glass, Corner And Vanity Sinks - Much More Than The Old Porcelain

If your view of vanity sinks is just a plain Jane white porcelain bowl, step into the future of bathroom design! Today’s sinks are made with the hottest materials, including glass, steel, and even hand painted china. Do not forget to include the vanity in your bathroom set up. One of the hottest trends on the market today is a glass sink vanity, where the bowl, the top, and the surround are completely made of glass. For small spaces, choose a corner sink vanity instead of a larger washbasin that will take up valuable space. Utilizing a corner for a lone sink or a vanity with a basin mounted is an excellent designer look.

Consider using a cabinet, chest, or even a table instead of a traditional vanity. If you have a pre-existing piece of furniture you want to use as a vanity, consider using a manmade stone product like swanstone and undermount the actual sink bowl. This is a fantastic way to combine a designer look with the utmost function. Instead of an undermount sink, consider mounting the basin on top of the vanity. Use a glass basin for a particularly sleek, contemporary look that is perfect for individuals seeking a modern feel for their bathroom. If room permits, choose a double sink vanity. Whether you install double sinks in a child’s bath or a master bath, having another bowl will save a great deal of territorial arguments. Choose two sinks that match or choose two that will compliment each other and the overall look of the room.

A simple browse through any manufacturer catalog will result in a plethora of lovely options.  Combine an antique inspired vanity with a hand painted designer washbasin. Of course, these extravagant sinks are generally too costly for the budget minded designers, but there are more economical options that may be cheap, but certainly will not look cheap. Consider creating a sink from an old bucket or deep bowl for the unusual, but economical, look. Especially if you are designing a powder bathroom, these unique sinks will be the hit of your bath, making you the envy of the neighborhood!
