Home Front: Keys to selecting the perfect vanity

A well-sized and properly positioned vanity can make or break a bath’s look, feel and functionality. The key factors to consider when selecting a vanity include style and aesthetic preferences, the materials used to make the vanity, countertop material, desired number of sinks/bowls, placement, storage space required and existing infrastructure and available space.

When selecting a bath vanity for the master bath, powder room or any other bathroom, the pieces should complement the home’s existing decor. While there is a benefit to adding an occasional piece or accent that contrasts stylistically, putting a modern European vanity in the powder room of a Victorian home would seem awfully out of place.
