Bathroom vanities have come a long way in recent years. In generations past, they were simply a place to find, and then leave…usually just in and out. The average person didn’t think much about luxury in the bathroom. These were rooms of function and purpose rather than relaxation and enjoyment. But that’s all changed for the better. For those who are so inclined, high quality bath fixtures and furnishings are abundant, and this is particularly true with vanities.
The finest quality craftsmanship is available in styles from every era, and for those who prefer bespoke carpentry and design, the sky is the limit. Ranging from the appeal of traditional cabinetry to contemporary minimalist design, with a lot of glamour and glimmer in between, it is possible to create a beautiful space for any daily routine. Known as the sink chest in some circles, the storage space and place for the sink is also called the vanity…and these are vanity stars.
Devon & Devon Double Music Vanity
The Double Music vanity is a twin version of the original Music Vanity. It was inspired by the Jazz Age in America, and features glossy lacquer, rounded edges and form. The finish is in the tradition of Florentine silver leafing. The granite top is deep black, as are the solid wood legs and knobs. This silvery finish is subtle and glamorous without merging into gaudy. It shimmers, but quietly. The doors are engineered to close softly and the drawers are spacious.
The price is available upon request.
Sophisticated Key West Style
This beach style home in Key Largo, Florida features and exquisitely crafted vanity. The interior design for the project was completed by Pinto Designs and Associates. The architect was Robert Wade. The project received its inspiration from the rich architectural details found in Key West. Clean lines and traditional woodwork with practical finishes was used to keep maintenance easy, and the residents relaxed. The white cabinetry is accented with dark metallic knobs and sculptural details on the cabinet doors. Much more than a typical his and hers vanity, this is more of an entire wall of custom vanity space.
Minimalist Design in Boca Raton, Florida
This design was created for a client who wished to have minimalist design with a soulful presence. Designer Eric Dyer of Troy Dean Interiors in Hallandale Beach, Florida took on the challenge. He selected just 5 materials to create a graphic and dramatic interior:
- Vintage black wood floors
- Gray oak woodwork
- White glass partitions
- Pietra seriena limestone
- Concrete walls
These five materials are evident in the master bath, and the long clean lines of the vanity enhance the feeling of spaciousness in the room while using the material palette chosen by the designer.
