Octagonal Vanity--need help with redesign!
10 years ago
We're considering buying a house with an octagonal vanity in the master bathroom! The bathroom is large, but all of walls are taken up by a bathtub and built-in closets. The owners placed a tiny SINGLE sink in an octagonal vanity in the middle of the room. It's an incredibly dated design in an otherwise modern house. I don't want to lose a closet to put the sinks on a wall, but is that my only choice? I'm struggling to imagine how to leave a vanity in the middle of the room, and have it be functional and look "fresh". Ideas? Thank you!
