Rhoper Rhodes Signatures Ella Bathroom Furniture 500mm Plain Mirror
How times have changed. Ten years ago, designers recognized the first stirrings of what is now a full-blown trend in bathroom furniture. Both they and do-it-yourself homeowners were taking a deep breath and converting beautiful antique cabinets into vanities for their bedrooms and baths.
They did so at no small risk. A steamy or sun-drenched bathroom is a dangerous place to store wood antiques. Not to mention the
potential for structural damage caused by installing a basin—no less one filled with water—into the top of Aunt Ethel’s beautiful Victorian cabinet.
No need to go to such lengths today. Thanks to a growing availability of beautiful and durable furniture made specifically for the bathroom, standalone vanities are increasingly popular with homeowners of all tastes, regardless of their style of home, says Donna Vining of Vining Design Associates, Inc., in Houston.
Today, “It’s standard that vanities look like pieces of furniture,” says Vining. “It’s been that way in Europe forever, where people take their kitchens [with them] when they move. It just took some time for the trend to hit the States.
“The popularity of the furniture look is definitely on the rise,” says Vining, “and that goes for all areas of the country.”
