Choosing the right bathroom furniture

Everyone who embarks on a bathroom redesign project will encounter challenges with regards to fitting furniture into their room. Obviously smaller bathrooms have limited space but storage is still required. Bathroom furniture may have to be restricted to wall-hung toiletries/medicine cabinets. As with any larger room, bathrooms with more free floor space can accommodate bigger furniture. This means that larger bathroom projects have a wider range of choices available from free-standing cupboards to fitted bathroom units.

If you are kitting out a small cloakroom bathroom or en-suite toilet then you should consider low level furniture which will create a sleeker, less cluttered aesthetic. Many suppliers also stock space saving furniture specifically designed to fit in the more bijou bathroom. Heritage and Shades are two brands who currently stock a wide range of smaller bathroom furniture. Also if you are determined to introduce free standing furniture into a small room, you may consider a rotating cabinet which disguises your products to the back with a mirror to the front. It is also important to consider the colour of the furniture in a small bathroom. Lighter coloured furniture will create the illusion of space.

Fitted display units or storage units are another consideration. You can achieve a minimalistic aesthetic by having all of your toiletries stored out of sight. You can still add your own personal touches to the room with candles and luxury toiletries.

Free standing bathroom units for larger bathrooms come in such a wide variety of designs that you can really express your creativity and put your own stamp on the bathroom…be it with colours or mirrors or glass or wood. You may even want to mix and match to create a truly unique look.
