Storage is never enough. Even though we have to optimize our storage space to the maximum, we can never neglect aesthetics and beauty.

Bathroom cabinetry is not only useful but aesthetically necessary, to hide the siphon and plumbing pipes. If you live in a rental, there is a variety of rolling cabinets that fit pedestal sinks and are the best solution to hide siphons. They do not need to be fixed to the wall, as vanities do.

We have selected some cool bathroom cabinet ideas for you, that are beautiful and extremely functional.

1. Keep It Sleek With Black

When it comes to bathroom design, black is always a timeless classic. Make an elegant statement that won’t age with a black bathroom cabinet! The sleek black finish provides an elegantly versatile addition to any space.

2. Opt For A Freestanding Cabinet

Whether you’re replacing an old bathroom cabinet or sprucing up a brand-new renovation, freestanding cabinets are the perfect choice for a sleek and stylish look. Not only do freestanding cabinets provide an interesting visual appeal, but they also tend to be very versatile and movable which gives you flexibility when styling your bathroom.

While there are connected cabinets that are attached to the wash basin, freestanding cabinets offer the same storage space without being tethered down – in other words, you get all of the practicality with none of the fuss!

3. DIY A Bamboo Pull

Outfitting your bathroom with the perfect cabinet can take some serious DIY expertise, but it’s worth the effort to get the organic and beachy vibe you love. This is especially true if you go DIY in constructing a bamboo pull for your bathroom cabinet.

Bamboo is sleek, stylish, sustainable, and easy to work with. With a few tools and some know-how, you can create a one-of-a-kind piece that will give your bathroom decor something truly unique. Transform your powder room into a paradise by crafting DIY bamboo pulls for your bathroom cabinet!

4. Keep It Seamless With Minimalist Handles

A bathroom cabinet with minimalist handles is the perfect clean and subtle addition to any modern interior. Its sleek lines will effortlessly blend into the background of any room, while still being noticeable enough that it catches the eye.

Not only is its design a great way to add a touch of style and sophistication to your home, but it also provides plenty of storage space for all of your bathroom necessities. Cleaning around handles can be a chore, but with a handle-free cabinet, you’ll be able to clean faster while still having all the convenience of a traditional piece of furniture.

5. Go For Light Pastels

The pastel bathroom cabinet is a bright, happy addition to any bathroom. It’s easy on the eyes and provides an interesting contrast to the bright tiles and other features of the restroom. The neutral colors of the cabinet help make the bathroom feel cool, soothing, and relaxing.

It serves as a wonderful background for towels, toiletries, and other items that might be found in a bathroom. Allowing your space to feel bright yet calming at the same time, it’s no surprise this pastel cabinet is gaining a loyal following.

6. Add A Kid’s Vanity Extension

Create a child-friendly bathroom space with a bathroom cabinet that’s specifically designed for easy access. This kid’s vanity is set at a lower height, making it easier for children to reach their essentials while they’re in the bathroom. With extra cabinets and shelves, kids can now store away their toiletries and even have enough room to place personal decor.

It gives them an added sense of freedom and responsibility in taking care of their own items. Plus, you’ll no longer have to worry about your child accessing medicines and other potentially dangerous items as everything can be childproofed in just one space.

7. Go For Vintage

Transform a vintage, rustic bathroom with just one addition – a repurposed vanity cabinet. Not only will it inject a vintage sensibility into your interior design, but vintage pendant pulls and a scalloped door edge give it that special touch of character.

You can customize your vintage cabinet to fit perfectly in any room – from a classic half-bath to an expansive guest suite. With the perfect vintage bathroom cabinet, you’ll create a lasting statement for years to come.

9. Install A Floating Cabinet

A floating bathroom cabinet provides the illusion of a bigger space, while at the same time organizing your bathroom in an easy and efficient way. This cabinet helps our cleaning ritual in more ways than one; it is elevated off the floor so dirt and dust can easily be swept away and items that may not have fit on countertops can be stored out of sight without taking up any valuable space.

By making better use of vertical space while providing a charming illusion, a floating bathroom cabinet is truly a unique and creative solution to keep your bathroom looking organized and tidy.

You can easily see everything due to transparent containers or baskets, making it versatile and efficient for everyday use.

Personalize it with some plants or souvenirs for an extra touch. Get easy access to certain items with this great furniture element and make your mornings a breeze!

13. Go For Dark Wood

A modern, almost black dark wood bathroom cabinet is the perfect addition to any space. Its modern look and clean lines will lend an air of sophistication that can be hard to achieve with other pieces. While not as ornately sculpted as other styles, this piece has a modern charm of its own.

14. Install A Wall Mirror With A Shelf

A bathroom wall mirror with a cabinet makes it easy and discreet to store away your necessities. Instead of taking up valuable floor space, the cabinet cleverly conceals itself in the wall, so you still have easy access to your necessary items but with a fraction of the footprint.

It’s both practical and stylish – a modern solution for any bathroom decor!

If you find the space is inadequate for all your belongings, try organizing with crates under the shelf for extra storage. Utilizing this versatile multi-storage design in your bathroom can ensure that everything has its own designated spot, creating an organized and stylish atmosphere.

Sometimes as little as one can add just the right touch, while when they’re clustered together they simply create something eye-catching.

24. Keep It Tidy White

If a clean and simple aesthetic is what you’re looking for, an all-white bathroom cabinet is a way to go. Perfect for any decor style, an all-white cabinet can provide a versatile look that continues to be popular for its timelessness.

However it’s worth noting that as chic and clean as this look may be, it also requires higher maintenance than other options as white shows dirt and water spots more easily.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What can I do to prevent discoloration on my wooden bathroom vanity?

Water can cause wood to swell and crack, and lead to mold and mildew, so it is necessary to take some precautions to make your wooden vanity last longer, without having to worry about discoloration, swelling or warping. 

You should seal the wood with coating and apply a water-resistant paint or clear coating, which provides a natural-looking finish. Other waterproof sealants are toners, which maintain or restore the natural beauty of the wood.

Why choose a minimalist style in a bathroom?

One of the main reasons many people invest in minimalist bathroom décor is the sense of amplitude. The furnishings are restricted to the essentials, which makes the spaces more dynamic.

The other highlight is the fact that minimalist décor values functionality, that is, you will have a practical space to move around without anything getting in your way. Minimalist-style bathrooms are usually comfortable, clutter-free spaces. Finally, the minimalist design adopts light colors, which makes the space look brighter and more pleasant.
