Please help with 11’ vanity layout

5 years ago

Okay, so I have a strange list of things I want in our bathroom remodel. For health reasons, I need to sit down for hair and makeup. I sit at counter height now and have liked that a lot more than a lower seat. But we currently only have 2 pedestal sinks on an 11’ wall with zero countertops or cabinets (don’t get me started on whoever made that decision. Lol).

I also want a tower to store my (embarrassingly large) make up collection/Dyson air wrap/hair products, etc. Same reason as the sitting, I want everything I use daily more at arm height because I black out when I lean over. I’m thinking the tower door would open and have a mirror on the inside that could be closer for makeup, but I know it would look better with a double door. I am planning for the tower to be more shallow than the counter, and maybe doing a bump in or bump out of the counter there. I’m considering ditching the drawer at the bottom of the tower. I’m also wondering if I should break up the tower with some sort of lighted storage at the top?

I love the idea of pull out storage (think spice rack) on either side of the vanity, but other space is getting really thin.

What I am not loving is the tiny drawers on the sides of the sinks. Should that be another set of pull out storage instead? Something else?

Also, I prefer drawers over cabinets, but I’m worried that could look like a lot. If I do keep the cabinets, they would have pull out drawers/shelves within them.

Knowing a few things I must have, what advice do you have or how else would you rework this?

Thanks so much!
