One of the most important design elements within a bathroom design is bathroom vanities. It is a major focal point in the space so it needs to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

The bathroom is a valuable room in your house, and the bath cabinet choices you make — plus layout, flooring, tile and fixtures — will impact the everyday health and comfort of everyone who lives in your home. Many homeowners invest in bathroom cabinets during their remodel to better fit the everyday needs of their household. The scope of your remodel will depend greatly on the room size and uses. We spoke with a CliqStudios kitchen and bath designer to create a guide for smart selection of bathroom cabinets.
Our designer emphasized three factors to consider when designing your own master bathroom suite. First, think about your bathroom’s functionality and use. Who uses your bathroom? What time of the day is your bathroom the busiest? The day-to-day routine of your bathroom will greatly impact your design. For example, if spouses use the bathroom simultaneously to prepare for work, a double sink bathroom cabinet would be a great option.
Equally important is your bathroom floor plan. Are you going to rearrange the layout or are you only updating the products and fixtures you currently have? Consider if you’re limited by your plumbing and the location of current fixtures. Can you move these items around? Changing your floorplan will dramatically impact the flow of your bathroom, so be sure to understand the full scope of the work needed.
Finally, consider style. What is the look you’re trying to achieve with your bathroom? A clean and bright design is often a safe choice as bathrooms tend to be small or limited in lighting. Planning the overall aesthetic of your design will be a driving force with many decisions you make for your project.
With a barrage of design inspiration from television and websites, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by trends. How do you translate your Pinterest goals into a real bathroom? You begin by finding a design that works best with your lifestyle. Our designer offered three bathroom design tips to help with deciding if a bathroom trend is right for you:
A double sink bathroom cabinet is a perfect solution in a busy household, providing multiple areas for people to go about their routine.
The most ideal size for a double sink is 64” with an 18” to 24” cabinet drawer base between the two sinks. Make sure that a double sink is practical and that you have room to accommodate it comfortably.
According to This Old House, a half-bath needs to contain a toilet, sink, and a mirror. A half-bath does not need to be a large space, but you want to consider what will make the room welcoming and functional for your guests.
Having functional storage is a great way to maximize your space, concealing spare supplies until needed. For guests staying the night, allow for extra counter space to lay out bathroom items, as many will opt to not store things away in drawers.
Using bath cabinets as a built-in dressing table is a great option for homeowners who need a place to slow down while getting ready.
“Really sit down and ask yourself if you’re going to use this or is this just for show? You have to figure out how you’re going to use it and how the space evolves over time,” our designer added.
If you do decide to incorporate a dressing table into your design, make sure you have room for the proper lighting. “You really need two side lights to prevent shadows.”
Every project starts with a plan. In order to create a plan or budget for your upcoming project, it’s important to identify what you really want. This could include anything from the color and style of your vanity cabinets to storage, or tile and fixtures. Look at Pinterest, Houzz, and the CliqStudios gallery to find specific features you would love to have in your space and you will be off to a great start.
Like every other remodel, create your budget based on absolute necessities and your biggest must-haves. Once you get through those components, it will be easier to add in the remaining items because you will be aware of the remaining budget. Make sure you account for the unexpected. On average, this is typically between 10 - 20% of the overall budget. Then, if you don’t have unforeseen expenses, you can invest the rest in other areas.

Standard sizes for medicine cabinets range from 18, 21, 24, and 30 inches. Most medicine cabinet manufacturers create a wide variety of sizes to choose from to meet any project needs. Whether you need a standard size or custom medicine cabinet size, your CliqStudios designer can find the perfect cabinet line to suit your needs.
There is no hard and fast rule about bathroom cabinets or walls being lighter or darker. When you are deciding on color, start with the focal point of your bathroom. If the vanity is the focal point, choose the color you love the most and go from there. For instance, a darker vanity will look nice, but keep in mind the size of the room because it could easily look like a cave. For darker vanities, choose lighter wall colors and countertops to keep the space bright with a touch of warmth.
Bathroom cabinets and vanities are made of many kinds of material. Most cabinet manufacturers, including CliqStudios, will have tiers of construction to choose from. The most economical is MDF or medium-density furniture board. From there you will typically see a mixture of MDF and plywood, then all-plywood as the more expensive upgraded option.

Satin finish for cabinets is a great option for any project. The exterior cabinet coating is the same as any other paint, the only difference is the finish or how it appears. Common cabinet finishes are satin, high-gloss paint and acrylic, and textured laminate. Satin has a subtle sheen when you want your cabinets to be the focal point, but don’t want a flat finish. Satin is also great at hiding knicks and imperfections where a matte finish would be more likely to show every flaw.
Bathroom wall cabinet heights are up to each homeowner and their preferences. With so many custom requests and homeowners wanting to create a custom look, there is no longer a one-size-fits-all answer. Previously, you would find 30-inch-tall wall cabinets in bathrooms if they were included at all. Now, many homeowners love the custom look of wall cabinet towers that sit on the countertop and create a furniture-like appearance.
