Help with bathroom remodel

8 years ago

We are converting a bathtub into a frameless glass walk in shower and plan to tile the shower walls
with Stonepeak Cremino 12x24 tiles.



The contractor is going to build a shower seat into the shower with the same quartz tile as what we are going to use on top of the bathroom vanity. The trim and baseboard for the room is white. The bathtub shower floor and the niche will use 2x2 Stonepeak Cremino mosaic tiles. The floor outside the shower will be tiled with the 24x12 Stonepeak Cremino tiles. The same tile will go into the room with the double sinks.


Given that this tile has veining, should the 60'' wide bathroom vanity be painted white or stained? We plan to have a vanity style similar to this (4 drawers in the middle and double doors underneath each undermount sink). We also plan to have a backsplash like this which will be the same tile as the vanity top. The wall to wall dimension of the room with the sink is 60.5'' x 58''. The quartz top on the vanity will be a lighter color than the photo below which will go with the Stonepeak Cremino tiles.





Should the vanity be painted instead of stained because the floor tiles have a lot of veining? I was looking at cherry door panels stained in the cherry husk color and maple doors stained in both cognac and saddle. Would any of these door stains work in a room tiled with Stonepeak Cremino?


Cherry with Cherry Husk stain:



Maple with Cognac stain:



Maple with Saddle stain:



Thanks in advance for any advice.


On a separate topic, I see a lot of negative reviews for painted Kraftmaid cabinets. Does anyone have any recommendations for a custom or semi custom cabinet manufacturer? This bathroom we are remodeling is for a kid's bathroom. Our budget for a 60'' wide cabinet (without the vanity top) is probably anything up to around $2000. The cabinet will use plywood and we would like solid wood doors without veneers.
