Vanity Style Ideas: 4 Designs for Your Bathroom Remodeling Project

A vanity is a quintessential part of a home bathroom, big or small. This is the area where you brush your teeth, wash your face, and get prepped for the day. The vanity is indeed a focal point for both function and design, and something worth spending on for your next bathroom remodeling project.

As Atlanta, GA bathroom remodeling contractors will tell you, it’s not the size of the bathroom but the design elements coming together that make your bathroom beautiful. If you’re working with a small area, the key is to maximize the light that comes in and create the illusion of space through color and design. If you’re working with a big area, you have the luxury of designing to your heart’s desire while marrying function and style.

Whether your bathroom is big or small, you need to work with a professional who knows construction and design very well. A professional contractor would be able to give you remodeling options that are within your budget and make recommendations on design and functionality that are tailored to your lifestyle.

For your next remodeling project, consider these four vanity style ideas to turn your bathroom into a restful retreat:

1. His and Hers Vanity

For couples who love getting ready together, his and hers vanity is the perfect choice. Couples can match their sinks and mirrors or even mix it up a little bit. This also gives the opportunity to get more coordinated and organized with storing bathroom essentials. No need to worry about having messy countertops or bathroom products getting misplaced.

2. Console Vanity

This is a simple concept that works well with open plan or minimalist designs. If you want to make your tub the centerpiece of your bathroom, you can opt to put your vanity in the corner of the room. You can have a smaller counter with drawers or even a shelf-type table instead.

3. Floating Vanity

This eye-catching design trend lets your vanity be the star of the room without sacrificing function. Floating vanities give you ample storage space, and the area beneath your counters provides room for baskets as artful containers for bathroom products. Consider floating mirrors as well to complete the look.

4. Hidden Vanity

A hidden vanity is a clever design idea that tucks away your vanity behind a closet. This smart use of space works for small bathrooms and is a quirky design idea for the more creative homeowner. You may also consider this design for a guest bathroom, powder room, or a child’s bathroom.

Consult with a trusted contractor to help you bring your dream bathroom design to life. Also keep in mind small aspects that contribute to the whole project. Statement pieces such as mirrors and stools, materials for the countertops and cabinets, and fixtures for the sinks, showers, and drawers tie everything together to create the ideal bathroom.

Philip and the Sterling Works team were wonderful to work with on my bathroom renovation! From the estimate to completing the final punch list, the project went smoothly and stayed on schedule. Philip was at my house daily for the bulk of the project, ensuring that all of the subs were coordinated and completing the project exactly as promised. Any small issues that arose were met with solutions from the experienced team. I highly recommend Sterling Works for your next home renovation!

My husband and I cannot praise Sterling Works highly enough! Philip has assembled and overseen a team of pros who do gorgeous, precise work, turning our cramped, hideous 1970s bathroom and small walk-in closet into the Japandi retreat of our dreams--a room we can age into with confidence. Would we use Sterling Works again? Absolutely! If you're lucky enough to find them free, grab them fast! A+++++++++

Philip was hands down the best contractor from start to finish of a project we could have asked for. His attention to detail and understanding my vision for our kitchen was so easy to communicate. The crew he hires from demo and structural engineering work, to cabinet making to local recommendations for suppliers of appliances, countertops, etc are all top notch. The best part was his timeline and budget were accurate and we had no surprises there. I hope he never retires for my own sake. Most of all, he is an in town local and kept our house and dogs safe while we underwent this huge renovation! Peace of mind while turning a project over was such a relief.

Sterling Works did an absolutely incredible job giving us the kitchen of our dreams. They weren’t the first business we met with when planning our kitchen renovation, but we knew after meeting with the owner, Phil, that we had found the right company for the job. Phil understood our vision for our kitchen and was really invested in giving us exactly what we wanted. He was the first contractor that we met with that actually had suggestions and gave some of his own ideas that helped us to make some key decisions. As far as timing goes, I know it’s impossible to promise an exact date for a project, but despite the hiccups that come with renovations in a 70+ year old house, they moved swiftly (not too swiftly as to make mistakes) and finished right on time as promised. 10/10 would absolutely work with Sterling Works again and would recommend them to anyone.

I am so happy with our our 2nd floor renovation project turned out from Sterling Works. Everyone was wonderful to work with, from the flooring crew who had to pivot when the original plan wasn't going to work, to the carpenter who built our custom vanity and the rest of the crew who did excellent work. They all took our wishes into account, offered suggestions based on their professional expertise, and made sure we were happy with the end results. Our house finally feels more like a home than an apartment and we are thrilled with the results.

We recently completed a project with Sterling Works and could not be happier with the experience and outcome. We updated both our kitchen and primary bathroom and they both turned out great. The entire process working with Philip and his team was easy from initial planning to completion. Philip’s team is wonderful. They are all very talented and do meticulous work. Also, they are also extremely friendly and polite. In addition to the great work, they also do the “little things” like cleaning up the work site at the end of every day, which really does make a huge difference with all of the work taking place in the house. Overall, the project was completed on time and there were no surprises on cost. We would highly recommend Sterling Works and are already considering updating a guest bathroom with them later this year.

Had my kitchen completely redone with a lot of special requests and Sterling Works managed it all beautifully. They were extremely professional and all the work was done on time. Philip was so easy to work with and highly responsive, as were all of his crew. The subcontractors he chose were also highly professional and easy to work with. My kitchen turned out stunning, so if you want quality work done on time, these are the guys.

I just finished a kitchen and second room remodel, working with Phil and his crew. I cannot say enough about the process and the results. Phil really helped guide me through the whole remodel process and communicated with me next steps, schedule and the all-important budget. As we came upon a couple of issues and choices, he and his crew were able to offer solutions and options and implement them to perfection. For example, my house is very old so I was terrified of what we would find once we opened the walls. And we did find something – some of the pipes were split and leaking beneath the house, as well as into the basement. Phil and his crew were able to deal with this new situation almost immediately. Going into this, I also worried about having a whole crew in the house for such a long period of time. His crew is really the best group of guys. But by the time the project was finished I could not imagine, not having them around! They are really good people!!! I cannot overstate that! This whole scary process was so easy and enjoyable due to their knowledge, experience and ingenuity. My remodel is absolute perfection. I definitely recommend Phil and hope to have future projects with them. Sincerely, Erin
