Using a beautiful, functional bathroom can be a little like taking a holiday. Considering the amount of time you spend in the humble bathroom, prioritising the renovation of your bathroom makes sense. And aside from improving your day-to-day life, a new or updated bathroom will increase your home’s value and saleability.
In recent years the bathroom has evolved from a purely functional room to a living space where we can wash away the worries of the day. This evolution is evident not only in the fixtures, fittings and finishes but also in the layouts, which are breaking the rules in traditional bathroom design.
Look towards custom made vanities that perfectly fit your bathroom and your needs. These can include special drawers, cabinets, pull out shelves, inserts, etc. Don't think of it as your vanity anymore. We can have custom bathroom furniture that is tailored to your needs with a basin added.
