Black Bathroom Vanity

Planning a stylish bathroom means choosing the perfect vanity design for it, especially since this is one of the first things that you or other people will see when they enter the room. While most would go with white color or wood finishes, there is something more eye-catching and unique with a black bathroom vanity.

Black is a great choice if you’re looking for a focal point because of its striking tones. Aside from its dramatic attributes, it is also versatile and can work with a variety of interior design styles depending on what you pair it with.

Black bathroom vanity with a plain or light veined white countertop, for example, is a timeless choice for transitional and contemporary interiors. Meanwhile, a white countertop with dramatic veins will look great in making a statement for modern or traditional spaces. A black countertop on black vanity, on the other hand, will create the right mood for modern and industrial bathrooms.

When it comes to finishes, matte, semi-gloss, and wood paints and stains work best in most interior styles while distressed finishes are ideal for farmhouse, industrial, and rustic bathroom themes. Another thing that you have to consider when working with black is the level of contrast that you want to achieve. If you’re looking for a clean and seamless approach, matte black or steel finishes for cabinet hardware are your best bet. However, if you want to create an elegant composition, brass and gold knobs and pulls will look great for your black bathroom vanity.

Here are beautiful black bathroom vanity designs that will give you an idea of how to work with this stunning color.

Make a Statement

Black Bathroom Vanity

Enhance your bathroom with a black vanity, ideally paired with a chunky countertop to showcase the stone’s veining and add a significant style quotient. When choosing a thick countertop, consider the vertical dimensions, including cabinet storage height and overall vanity height, to maintain proportion and balance. An under-mount sink complements thick benchtops, reducing visual bulk and contributing to a clean, seamless look. Reflecting on this combination, interior designer Camila Lyons observes, “A substantial countertop with a wall-mounted faucet above a seamless black cabinet exemplifies thoughtful customization, adding bespoke sophistication to your powder room or ensuite bath.” This setup not only serves a functional purpose but also brings a unique, tailored elegance to the space.

17 Vertical Tile Backsplash Ideas to Accent Your Space

Backsplash is one of the easiest ways to infuse character into the kitchen. There are various features to consider — from material to color, finish, and of course, pattern. Horizontal backsplash is perhaps the most common tile pattern, often seen with classic subway tiles or shiplap. Vertical backsplash, on the other hand, doesn’t tend to get as much love.

The style, however, has lots of benefits. The slimmer profile looks particularly striking and can create a unique statement, whether it’s glossy emerald tiles coating an entire wall or a satisfying neutral ombre effect above the stove. Not to mention, vertical tiles draw the eye upward for the illusion of a higher ceiling. This can make a space feel more open and spacious. You can even customize the color of your grout to make the tiles pop — or feel more subtle. Curious how it looks? Check out these vertical backsplash ideas for inspiration.

30 All-Drawer Lower Kitchen Cabinets for Extra Style

When it comes to the kitchen, having ample storage is key. From bulky pots to precarious stacks of Tupperware, certain accessories can become eyesores if they don’t have a designated home. So, it’s important to be discerning with your drawers, as they are one of the pricier investments you’ll make in a kitchen remodel.

Lower drawers, in particular, are helpful, as they allow items to be easily within reach rather than reaching on tip-toe and teetering when reaching for higher-level cabinets. Plus, you don’t have to stick your head in to find items; the drawers pull open to you. From color to wood type to hardware and even features like soft-closing and paneling, there are endless ways to make your all-drawer lower kitchen cabinets complement your space and personal style.
