Is your bathroom a disorganized mess of towels strewn about, cluttered countertops, and cabinets overflowing with more “stuff” than storage space? If you’re tired of the daily frustration that comes from a lack of organization, it may be time to consider a storage-boosting bathroom vanity tower.
Bathroom vanity towers are the savvy solution for creating tidy, beautiful bathroom spaces. Combining ample storage with sink basins and countertops, these towers provide a place for everything from folded towels to toiletries to linens. The result is a bathroom oasis free of clutter and stress. Let’s explore the different vanity tower configurations, customization options, and storage solutions that can help you tower over bathroom disorder once and for all.
Bathroom Vanity Tower Styles
Vanity towers come in three main styles – built-in, freestanding, and corner – each with their own pros and cons depending on your bathroom layout and needs.
Built-In Towers
As the name implies, built-in vanity towers are designed to integrally fit into the contours and dimensions of your existing bathroom. They can be customized with cabinetry cut precisely to the available wall space. Built-ins maximize storage capability since they utilize the entire area. However, the custom sizing and installation do make them one of the more expensive options.
Freestanding Towers
Freestanding towers have finished sides and can be readily placed anywhere in your bathroom. Their mobility makes design changes a breeze. However, they do take up more floor real estate than a built-in. Make sure to measure your space to find a tower that fits without eating up valuable square footage.
Corner Towers
For cramped bathrooms, a corner tower unit may be the perfect fit. Nestled neatly into a corner, they take advantage of often underutilized space and provide storage along two adjacent walls. Many corner vanity towers include a countertop that extends from the corner as well. Just be aware that a triangular dead space may exist behind the door in some installations.
Customizing Your Vanity Tower
Beyond choosing a built-in, freestanding or corner tower, you’ll also want to tailor your vanity’s look and functionality through size, storage configuration, and material options.
Size Options
First decide between a single or double vanity setup. Double vanities are wider, allowing two sinks and more countertop real estate for shared bathrooms. They also accommodate his and hers towers for ample separate storage.
Tower dimensions vary but standard widths range from 18″ for slimmer models up to 60″ for more spacious double vanities. Common depths are 20″ to 22″ and heights around 34″ to 36″. Be sure to measure your existing space beforehand to find the right tower size.
Door Styles
Personalize your look with framed or frameless cabinet doors. Framed doors have an outer decorative trim while frameless types have a sleek, smooth appearance. For material, glass doors beautifully show off linens. Wood types like Shaker or slab add warmth. Mirrored doors make small bathrooms seem more spacious.
Finishes
Match your vanity tower to your existing bathroom decor with on-trend paint and stain colors. Bright white has an airy, beachy vibe. Bold hues like navy blue make a statement. For a natural look, choose wood stains in oak or walnut tones. The finish options are nearly endless.
Hardware Selection
Hardware pulls or knobs come in all different metal finishes like brushed nickel, chrome, bronze and matte black. Go for classic styles like bar pulls or modern angular knobs. Sleek black or silver hardware pairs well with most color schemes.
Countertop Materials
Countertop materials range from elegant natural stone like marble, to durable laminates, to stain- and scratch- resistant engineered quartz. Pair with an integrated sink basin or coordinate a wall-mounted faucet with a countertop cutout. The material choices complement any decor.
Storage Solutions for Every Need
Now let’s explore how to unlock all that storage space with organization solutions tailored to your bathroom needs.
Towel Storage
Neatly fold bath and hand towels on shelves, or hang them behind cabinet doors on hooks so they’re ready to grab. Pull-out metal racks are perfect for draping damp towels to dry.
Toiletries and Medicines
Corral everyday items like cotton swabs and perfumes in drawer organizers and trays. Install hidden storage units with mirrors as doors to conceal mess while still accessing what you need daily.
Linens
Fit sheets, blankets, and towels into deep cabinets with adjustable shelves to customize your space. Or neatly roll and stack linens to maximize cabinet usage.
Extra Bathroom Benefits
In addition to amplified storage, vanity towers offer other advantages to elevate your bathroom.
More Open Counter Space
By keeping items organized inside the tower, you’ll minimize countertop clutter and finally have an unencumbered surface for folding, primping and displaying decor.
Enhanced Decor
A stylish, customized vanity becomes a beautiful focal point and dramatically improves the overall aesthetic of your bathroom.
