Built-In Cabinet "It does not cost a lot more to build organization into a cabinet," says interior designer Angela Todd. With this particular master bath, Angela turned the base section of the countertop to clutter-free cubby storage for hair-styling tools and other toiletries, complete with a entrance door and interior electrical outlets. The top part of the tower houses a small stereo and iPod docking station, although the floor has wide, full-extension drawers that hold brushes, curling irons and other bathroom necessities.
Cabinet Storage Tower Sleek vanities in custom finishes make this smaller-scale master bath feel bigger. The space required more storage, therefore designer Bea Pila put a tower cupboard between the two sinks. With its mixture of adjustable enclosed shelves in addition to pullout drawers below, the furniture-like tower provides a place for all.
Floating Vanity Storage Despite its small dimensions, this modern floating vanity designed by Anna Marie Fanelli packs lots of clever storage. The vanity's large center drawer houses a custom laundry hamper, whereas the drawers on the left feature dividers for easily organized creams, toothbrushes and more. "A hanging vanity makes the space appear larger, and makes it effortless to clean out the space," Anna Marie says.
Sleek Open Shelving Open storage in a sleek, contemporary-style vanity provides a spa-like feel to this master bathroom. "Rather than hiding your things, expose them for charm," says Bea. While the shelves are perfect for baskets or towels, drawers are helpful for stowing away personal items and beauty products. The single-sink basin provides more counter space to home everyday essentials.
Uncluttered Bathroom Sleek, contemporary lines and a surprising quantity of storage make this floating vanity an ideal option within this small bathroom made by Candice Loren. Three large drawers conveniently hold hair-styling tools, makeup, towels and other essentials, making it easy to reach a clean, uncluttered appearance.
Lots of Storage Designer Christine Suzuki constructed plenty of storage into this expansive lake house toilet, designed to accommodate large groups of folks coming in and out of the house. The vanity includes abundant closed cupboard storage, while the grand apron-front sink helps protect the cabinets from water. The open cabinets above offer simple access to beach towels and other lake house requirements.
Small But Mighty Adding extra storage into a little vanity can be a challenge. Designer Christopher Grubb chose a dressing table with a bottom drawer to store hair styling and toiletries. A boat spout allows for a more storage inside the dressing table.
Buffet Table Turned Vanity Denise Duffy of Bella Dreams flipped this antique buffet table into her fantasy master bath dressing table. A smart mixture of inside shelves and door-mounted organizers allows her to conveniently store towels and daily essentials.
Less Is More In a little bathroom, sometimes less. Why audience the space using a vanity cabinet if a small-scale piece can be practical? Designer Elizabeth Swartz utilized a custom-designed furniture piece as a dressing table for this petite powder room. "The combination of the open foundation and tall legs helps produce a lighter, more open texture," she says. Using a vessel sink means the drawers beneath remain spacious enough to store soaps, guest towels and extra rolls of toilet paper.
Hidden Drawer Elizabeth used a mix of closed and open storage to provide efficient business within this master bathroom. Open shelves offer easy access to towels, while pullout drawers, a tall cabinet and a full-height pullout cupboard handily store toiletries, beauty items, cleaning products and everyday essentials.
Customize Your Vanity Designer Jamie Gold considers in integrating as much practical organization into a vanity area as possible. These days custom vanities may contain tilt-out trays, drawer dividers and hair-dryer racks. In this master bathroom suite for two with his-and-her dressing table, one of the tall closets homes a wardrobe area, complete with a bar for hanging clothes. A drawer opens to show a built-in laundry hamper along with another vanity.
Extra Counter Space In older homes, master bathrooms frequently have limited space, therefore building as much storage directly into the vanity is essential. That can often mean scaling down from a double sink. "We have been noticing a transfer away from the need to have multiple sinks in smaller master bathrooms and a focus more on storage," says designer Jason Ball. Applying one basin opens up extra counter space and gives additional storage -- including pullout drawers on either side of the sink and a tilt-out center drawer to store toiletries.
Storage for Two "These clients had a significant list of specific needs for their master bathroom," says designer Kurt Hakansson. To create separate storage for every person, Kurt added two top wall cabinets on both sides of the double vanity with adjustable shelves and convenient outlets. In the center, base cupboard drawers offer storage for common products. Towel bars placed under every sink supply easy accessibility with a shelf beneath for extra towels.
Under-Sink Storage For this house, designer Laura Meyer balanced open sinks by incorporating tall cabinets on either side to hold towels and personal items. Laura augmented the under-sink storage by adding deep shelving, in addition to alloy bars for hanging towels.
Mason Jar Storage Among the challenges of converting a dresser to a one-of-a-kind vanity is your limited drawer space. To accommodate the under-sink pipes, drawers wind up being shallow -- frequently about 8 inches deep. Designer Leslie Hart-Davidson takes a creative way of this storage challenge. She utilized wide-mouth Mason jars to hold cotton balls and swabs, while votive-sized candleholders shop makeup brushes.
Medicine Cabinet Storage When working with a small space, each bit of extra storage pockets. Designer Pangaea installed a custom double-depth medicine cupboard in this modern bathroom. The recessed cabinet provides valuable interior storage, together with electrical outlets for charging toothbrushes and razors. "You can recess these on any interior wall provided that nothing else within the wall is in the way," she says. Other space-saving features include a 36-inch counter and a vessel sink, allowing for more storage underneath.
Super-Long Vanity Sleek and sophisticated, this custom dressing table is stocked with storage options. Designer Tracy Black made this elegant, oversized slice, which measures an eye catching eight feet long and 25 inches deep. "A vanity is so much more practical and functional with deep drawers instead of doors," she says. The spacious drawers and center cabinets easily accommodate bath and beauty goods, hair-styling tools and much more. The open shelf is a sensible spot for keeping towels or baskets and prevents the vanity out of overpowering the room.
