Sorry I don't have a picture, but we were in a similar situation but ended up trading off the window for a double-vanity. We got one of those Solatube skylights to compensate, and I've been so happy with it. I was really reluctant to get rid of the window, but the tubular skylight has worked really well for us. I don't miss the window at all.

Good luck!

It might look good if you could make your mirror the same size and shape as the window. Then they could balance each other.

Are your dimensions correct?

Is this in a basement? Or do you have the window high for privacy reasons?

I'm trying to picture an 18" high window- and I can only come up with a clerestory type...?

So, you can't really balance that with a mirror on the other side- it would be way too high. Can you draw a pic of what you're envisioning?

Yes, the window is high for privacy reasons. We have a single story bungalow in Hawaii. I don't want to lose the window because we need the air flow. Our other bathroom doesn't have a window and it gets very stuffy. I will try to post a diagram but not sure how...

Hi Viv,

Yes, it will work to have window on one side.

But, it may be pretty tight to get sink and plumbing in between the two banks of drawers as you have them drawn above (on the right). We have a sink between two banks of drawers in a 48" vanity and had difficulty finding a small enough sink- I'd suggest getting the sinks first and then designing your vanity around the space they need.

Must be rough living in Hawaii! :>)

I plan to buy a Kohler Saxton sink which is about 19" wide. What size cabinet would I need to get (we are buying custom cabinets so I can specify any size) ?? Would a 22" wide sink base cabinet work?

Thanks!

Viv,

If you go onto Kohler's website, I am sure they will give you the specs. There should be exact measurements as to how much clearance you need. Remember, a 22" wide sink base is not 22" on the inside, but from the outside walls, so that could be pretty tight. If you are having them custom made, make sure you have the sink first- or at least the exact measurements. Our sink was ~15 1/2", but 17 1/4" on the outside- again make sure you're certain what that 19" is- inside dimensions of sink, or outside?
