Inspiration for a scandinavian home design remodel in Minneapolis

This was a major remodel where the kitchen was completely gutted, flooring and soffits were removed and all the electrical in the kitchen had to be reworked and brought up to code. We used Waypoint Living Spaces for the perimeter cabinets and used a riser and crown molding to connect the cabinets to the ceiling. We chose Medallion Cabinetry for the island because the customer had her heart set on a green painted island. The hardware we used is from the Mulholland collection by Amerock. The customers have large family gathers and it was very important for them to have an island that was moveable. We used casters from Richelieu to create and island that could move easily, as well as having brakes to keep the island in place when they wanted. Giallo Traversella granite was used on the perimeter countertops to tie together the greens and beige tones of the cabinetry and we used John Boos, walnut butcher block countertop for the island to compliment wood tones from the existing millwork in the home. The customer provided me with an inspiration picture for a backsplash, she knew she wanted a glass patterned backsplash. Ceramic Tiles International had released their Debut Petal mosaic tile and the customer loved it. Prior to the remodel, the kitchen was very dark and very crowded, it did not function in a way that worked for my customer. We added under cabinet LED lights, one general ceiling fixture and LED Brio Disc lights with dimming capabilities so the customers could adjust the lighting to their specific needs. Light fixtures were updated in the hallways as well as the kitchen. My customer didn’t know exactly what they wanted as far as plumbing was concerned. They wanted products that were durable and easy to maintain. I chose the Blanco Performa undermount sink in the Truffle color due to is durability and the color complimented the other materials. We used Moen’s Arbor single handle pull down spray faucet and transitional soap dispenser due to its simplistic design, functionality and warranty. We used a ¾ horsepower Insinkerator disposal and a deluxe Steamball strainer basket. The customer originally had Parquet flooring and they liked the look of real hardwood. Madeira 5” planks in Dark Gunstock oak was chosen for its color and durability. The flooring brought in warm neutral tones to compliment other materials. My customer wanted a larger window, but they had some safety concerns. We addressed their concerns by providing a larger Awning style window, using tempered glass and double locks.

Part of the Modin Vinyl Plank Collection, Available Exclusively From www.Flooret.com $3.49 / sq ft, 22.08 sq ft per box 50% WIDER. 25% LONGER. TWICE AS DURABLE Luxury Vinyl Plank, 5 mm x 9" x 60" (1.0 mm / 40 mil wear-layer) Lifetime Residential Warranty, 20 year Commercial Warranty Rich, luxurious, refined. A deep tone punctuated by a slight bleached wire-brush. Barin will lift any space, and can live up to the highest design requirements. REDEFINING DURABILITY The most important specification for determining the durability of vinyl flooring is the thickness of the wear-layer. The best wear-layers are made of thick, clear virgin PVC, which covers the paper print-film that gives the floor its unique appearance. Once the wear-layer wears through, the paper is damaged and the floor will need replacement. Most vinyl floors come with a 8-12 mil wear-layer (0.2-3 mm). The top commercial specs in the industry are higher, at 20-22 mil (0.5 mm). A select few manufacturers offer a "super" commercial spec of 28 mil (0.7 mm). For Modin, we decided to set a new standard: 40 mil (1.0 mm) of premium virgin PVC. This allows us to offer an industry-leading 20 year Commercial Warranty (Lifetime Residential), compared to nearly all other commercial vinyl floors' 10 year Commercial Warranty. Beyond our superior wear-layer, we also use a patented click mechanism for superior hold, and a ceramic-bead coating. SIZE MATTERS Wider and longer planks create a sense of space and luxury. Most vinyl floors come in 6" or 7" widths, and 36" or 48" lengths. For Modin, we designed our planks to be 9" wide, and 60" long. This extra large size allows our gorgeous designs to be fully expressed. DETAILS THAT COUNT We made sure to get all the details right. Real texture, to create the feel of wire-brushed wood. Low sheen level, to ensure a natural look that wears well over time. 4-sided bevels, to more accurately emulate the look of real planks. When added together they help create the unique look that is Modin. DESIGNS THAT INSPIRE We spent nearly a year just focusing on our designs, to ensure they provide the right mix of color and depth. Focusing on timeless wire-brush and European Oak styles, as well as more contemporary modern washes, our collection offers truly beautiful design that is both functional and inspiring.

Absolutely Stunning! This home originally had hardwood, tile and carpet in their main living spaces, and by replacing it with beautiful Luxury Vinyl Plank throughout, it unifies the entire space and updates the feel of the home!

  Morning routines shouldn’t involve a traffic jam at the sink. The 2025 Houzz Bathroom Trends Study found that 65 percent of U.S. renovators now choose a double-sink vanity to skip the wait. Designers agree: Titan Builders dubbed 2025 “the year of bigger, storage-packed double vanities,” forecasting dual-basin setups in family, guest, and even powder baths. As KBIS 2025 launches land, prototypes for 2026 layer in spa-grade wood, built-in outlets, and planet-friendly finishes. In this guide, we rank six standout models and show you how to size, install, and enjoy a clutter-free, two-sink future.   Methodology and selection criteria   A well-planned double-sink vanity keeps busy morning routines calm and clutter-free.   Before we crowned any winners, we mapped the entire 2024–2026 double-sink (dual-basin) market. That meant parsing KBIS exhibitor releases, scraping bestseller lists from Home Depot, Lowe’s, and Wayfair, and reviewing designer short lists in trade magazines. The sweep produced 110 candidate vanities, giving us visibility into every style, price tier, and material in play.   We then scored each model against six weighted factors that continue to matter long after installers leave:  

1. Build quality – 25 percent.Solid hardwood frames, dovetail drawers, and furniture-grade plywood backs, never particleboard in disguise.  
2. Design versatility – 20 percent.Lines and finishes that suit modern, classic, or farmhouse baths without dating quickly.  
3. Sustainability – 15 percent.FSC-certified wood, CARB 2 compliance, and low-VOC finishes for healthier air.  
4. Storage efficiency – 15 percent.Deep drawers, tilt-outs, or power cubbies that corral countertop clutter.  
5. Value for money – 15 percent.Fair street price for the materials, stone tops, sinks, and soft-close hardware included.  
6. Brand reputation and warranty – 10 percent.Manufacturers with responsive support and at least a one-year parts guarantee.

  Three hard gates kept the field honest: each finalist had to ship in North America by early 2026, include a countertop plus two sinks, and hold a minimum four-star user rating. We also filtered out mass-produced MDF boxes and pay-to-play “editor’s picks” in favor of furniture-grade builds with transparent spec sheets. Double-sink listings on Willowbathandvanity.com spell out hardwood or birch-and-plywood construction, specify when MDF and pressboard are not used, and list dovetail drawer boxes, soft-close hardware, and downloadable spec drawings, the kind of detail that made it easier to confirm build quality and layout before shortlisting a model.   After the cuts, six vanities remained, each leading a different use case: luxury showpiece, budget hero, small-bath savior, tech lover’s pick, farmhouse favorite, or bold-color newcomer. The following sections explain why each model earned its spot and where it may have trade-offs, helping you buy with confidence.   Best overall: Willow “Charlotte” 72-inch solid-teak double vanity   The Willow “Charlotte” 72-inch solid-teak double vanity blends heirloom warmth with a durable marble top and deep storage.   Imagine yacht-grade teak refashioned into bathroom furniture; that is Willow’s Charlotte. Stretching 72 × 22 inches (183 × 56 cm), the cabinet feels built-in yet warms the room with genuine wood grain. Every panel and drawer front is solid teak, not veneer, so the wood’s natural oils resist humidity while MDF competitors swell and peel. Willow sources its teak from FSC-certified plantations and finishes it with low-VOC sealers, earning points for durability and indoor-air health.   Open a drawer and you notice commercial-grade heft: dovetail joinery, full-extension soft-close glides, and storage tall enough for a 10-inch (25 cm) hairspray can. Two under-sink bays flank four center drawers, and the factory-installed 1-inch Carrara marble top arrives pre-drilled for 8-inch widespread faucets, eliminating stone-shop delays.

• Footprint: 72 W × 22 D × 36 H in. (183 × 56 × 91 cm)
• Crated weight: 506 lb / 230 kg
• Street price: about $2,575 with marble top and basins, Q4 2025  

  Reality check: at a quarter ton, Charlotte requires a two-person lift or pro delivery, and marble benefits from yearly sealing. Treat it well and expect decades of service. For a dual-basin centerpiece that blends heirloom character with commercial-grade build, Charlotte sets the benchmark.   Best budget buy: Spring Mill “Emlyn” 60-inch double vanity   Spring Mill’s Emlyn vanity delivers double-sink convenience, a shallow profile and turnkey under-$800 pricing for tight hall baths.   When you want dual-basin convenience without draining the budget, Emlyn delivers. The 60.5 × 18.75 × 32.9 in. cabinet (154 × 48 × 84 cm) arrives fully assembled with its top attached and usually lists between $700 and $800 online. That price is roughly one-third of most mid-tier doubles, a welcome break when tile, plumbing, and lighting costs stack up.   Spring Mill controls costs with painted MDF sides and a laminate backer, yet the finish still feels designer: Admiral Blue or Pearl Gray over Shaker doors, finished with a seamless cultured-marble top. One integrated slab means no grout lines and no undermount rims to caulk.   The trim 18.75-in. (48-cm) depth fits hall baths where standard 22-in. units block door swings. Storage stays simple but useful: two under-sink cabinets plus a pair of full-extension drawers for brushes, toothpaste, and floss.   Treat Emlyn gently and expect five to seven years of service, perfect for rentals, flips, or a stopgap remodel. A quick silicone bead along the back edge stops splash creep, and felt pads prevent metal bins from scratching the resin surface.   Installation suits a single Saturday. Level the feet, connect two 4-in. centerset faucets, and move on to paint touch-ups; no stone-shop scheduling or custom templates required. Dollar for dollar, Emlyn delivers more visual impact than any budget vanity in our test group.   Best for small spaces: Allen + Roth “Haverhill” 48-inch weathered-oak double vanity   Allen + Roth’s Haverhill vanity squeezes dual sinks and barn-door storage into a space-friendly 48-inch footprint.   Small bathroom, big wish list? Haverhill packs dual-basin convenience into a 48 × 22 × 34.8 in. frame (122 × 56 × 88 cm) without feeling cramped. Its signature move is a sliding barn-style center door that glides sideways, preserving clearance in tight rooms.   The cabinet uses a plywood core wrapped in hand-distressed oak veneer, finished in a soft weathered gray that pairs with matte-black or brushed-nickel fixtures. A pre-sealed black engineered-stone top shrugs off splash marks; a quick wipe keeps it spotless.   Storage surprises: two under-sink bays plus three full-extension drawers provide soft-close hardware and a rock-solid feel.   Trade-offs: basins sit close, so elbows can bump, and the dark top highlights toothpaste specks; keep a microfiber cloth handy. For condos, kids’ Jack-and-Jill baths, or any remodel where walls refuse to move, Haverhill delivers two sinks in the footprint of one.   Quick specs

• Footprint: 48 W × 22 D in. (122 × 56 cm)
• Height: 34.8 in. (88 cm) with backsplash
• Sliding barn door plus 3 drawers
• Pre-drilled 8-in. faucet spacing, sinks included

  Best smart vanity: OVE Decors “Tahoe III” 60-inch midnight-blue double vanity Tired of cord clutter? Tahoe III fixes it. Each top drawer holds a UL-listed power bar with four outlets and two USB ports, so razors, toothbrushes, and hair tools stay plugged in yet out of sight.     Tahoe III tucks power outlets and grooming tools into the top drawer, keeping the double-sink countertop blissfully clear.   Built with solid-wood rails and furniture-grade plywood, the cabinet wears a velvety midnight-blue lacquer and a 1.25-in. (3 cm) sealed quartz top that shrugs off spills. Interior organizers sort cotton pads and clippers, while a heat-safe holster stores a hair dryer.   An integrated junction box connects to a nearby GFCI in minutes. Soft-close drawers, adjustable shelves, and full-extension glides complete the premium feel.   Quick specs

• Footprint: 60 W × 21 D × 34 H in. (152 × 53 × 86 cm)
• Integrated power: 4 AC + 2 USB, UL-listed
• Crated weight: 300 lb / 136 kg
• Street price: about $2,349 at Home Depot, Q4 2025  

  Factor in professional delivery and install, and reviews still praise the “zero-countertop-clutter” payoff. For households running on devices, Tahoe III pairs dual-basin style with built-in smarts.   Best modern farmhouse: Water Creation “Paisley” 72-inch rustic-sienna double vanity   Water Creation’s Paisley vanity brings warm Rustic Sienna wood and apron-front basins to a modern farmhouse bath.   Farmhouse rooms often rely on painted shiplap, while Paisley flips the script with warm hardwood in a Rustic Sienna stain, topped by crisp Carrara marble and two apron-front basins for equal parts country charm and boutique-hotel polish.   Built from solid birch and oak with undermount soft-close glides, the 72 × 22 × 34 in. cabinet (183 × 56 × 86 cm) leaves space for perfume on the left, a beard trimmer on the right, and still provides breathing room. Three center drawers keep razors separate from hair ties, while each under-sink bay includes an adjustable shelf for tall bottles. Oil-rubbed bronze pulls ship standard, and the 8-32 screw pattern works with most aftermarket knobs.   Marble benefits from a yearly sealer and quick wipe-downs, and it rewards care with timeless style. The vanity arrives fully assembled; crate weight sits near 380 lb / 172 kg, so confirm doorway widths and recruit lifting help. Street price averaged $2,299 at Home Depot in late 2025.   Quick specs

• Footprint: 72 W × 22 D in. (183 × 56 cm)
• Height: 34 in. (86 cm) plus 4 in. backsplash
• Counter: 1 in. Carrara marble, apron-front sinks included
• Hardware: oil-rubbed bronze, soft-close doors and drawers  

  For remodels inspired by barn doors, patterned cement tile, or reclaimed wood accents, Paisley anchors the look and delivers long-term durability.   Best statement color: Kohler “Tone” 60-inch double vanity (2026 preview)   Kohler’s upcoming Tone vanity brings hotel-inspired color and a waterfall quartz top to double-sink baths.   After a decade of white and gray, rich color returns, and Kohler’s upcoming Tone vanity moves it into the mainstream. Slated for Spring 2026, according to product managers at the KBIS 2025 press briefing, the collection wraps a Shaker shell in hotel-inspired finishes: Forest Green, Deep Terracotta, and Midnight Teal.   Design touches match the drama. Brushed-gold pulls, a waterfall quartz top that folds over both sides, and razor-thin 3 mm door reveals create a tailored look. Beneath the lacquer, a solid-poplar frame and furniture-grade plywood mirror the proven Kohler Jute recipe, so strength keeps pace with style.   Inside, adjustable dividers, a bamboo organizer tray, and soft-close hardware rated for 50,000 cycles control clutter. Engineers also added a slim power bank behind the top drawer for charging shavers or phones. Shipped in two main pieces (base and top), Tone can navigate stairs more easily than fully assembled units.   Quick preview specs*

Use the grid for quick elimination, then check the detailed reviews; warranty, service quality, and installation quirks often decide the final pick.   Buying guide: how to pick the right double vanity Measure first, mood-board later. A comfortable dual-basin vanity requires at least 60 in. (152 cm) of wall, plus a few extra inches so doors and drawers clear. In narrow baths, depth becomes the deal breaker. Units measuring 21 in. (53 cm) or less keep morning traffic moving.     Use at least 60 inches of wall, a shallow depth in narrow baths and 30 inches of clear floor space in front of your double-sink vanity.   Plumbing reality check. Converting a single to a double adds a second drain and tees off the hot- and cold-water lines. Floor-exit pipes favor a back panel you can notch, while wall-mounted vanities depend on in-wall supplies and solid blocking for support.   Materials equal lifespan. Solid hardwood and furniture-grade plywood shrug off steam, whereas particleboard swells. If budget points to MDF, seal every raw edge with caulk on day one; the barrier can add several extra years.   Storage style vs. plumbing clutter. Drawers keep makeup and chargers tidy but steal space where P-traps sit. Cabinets swallow tall bottles yet turn into black holes unless you add rollout trays. Many households choose a hybrid: drawers in the center, doors beneath each sink.   Top talk. Marble feels luxe but benefits from annual sealing. Quartz costs a bit more yet laughs at self-tanner and curling-iron heat. Seamless cultured-marble tops lower cost and simplify cleaning, though they scratch more easily.   Accessibility and clearance. Maintain at least 30 in. (760 mm) of clear floor space in front of the vanity to satisfy ADA guidelines and allow two people to bend without bumping hips. ADA also requires floating units to offer 27 in. (685 mm) of knee space for wheelchair users.   Last, vet the brand. A vanity proves its worth when a company can overnight replacement hinges after a move. Established manufacturers publish part numbers and answer the phone, peace of mind worth a small premium.  

This bright kitchen features gorgeous white UltraCraft cabinetry and natural wood floors. The island countertop is Mont Blanc honed quartzite with a build-up edge treatment.

All of the elements are tied together in the backsplash which features New Calacatta marble subway tile with a beautiful waterjet mosaic insert over the stove.

This was a major remodel where the kitchen was completely gutted, flooring and soffits were removed and all the electrical in the kitchen had to be reworked and brought up to code. We used Waypoint Living Spaces for the perimeter cabinets and used a riser and crown molding to connect the cabinets to the ceiling. We chose Medallion Cabinetry for the island because the customer had her heart set on a green painted island. The hardware we used is from the Mulholland collection by Amerock. The customers have large family gathers and it was very important for them to have an island that was moveable. We used casters from Richelieu to create and island that could move easily, as well as having brakes to keep the island in place when they wanted. Giallo Traversella granite was used on the perimeter countertops to tie together the greens and beige tones of the cabinetry and we used John Boos, walnut butcher block countertop for the island to compliment wood tones from the existing millwork in the home. The customer provided me with an inspiration picture for a backsplash, she knew she wanted a glass patterned backsplash. Ceramic Tiles International had released their Debut Petal mosaic tile and the customer loved it. Prior to the remodel, the kitchen was very dark and very crowded, it did not function in a way that worked for my customer. We added under cabinet LED lights, one general ceiling fixture and LED Brio Disc lights with dimming capabilities so the customers could adjust the lighting to their specific needs. Light fixtures were updated in the hallways as well as the kitchen. My customer didn’t know exactly what they wanted as far as plumbing was concerned. They wanted products that were durable and easy to maintain. I chose the Blanco Performa undermount sink in the Truffle color due to is durability and the color complimented the other materials. We used Moen’s Arbor single handle pull down spray faucet and transitional soap dispenser due to its simplistic design, functionality and warranty. We used a ¾ horsepower Insinkerator disposal and a deluxe Steamball strainer basket. The customer originally had Parquet flooring and they liked the look of real hardwood. Madeira 5” planks in Dark Gunstock oak was chosen for its color and durability. The flooring brought in warm neutral tones to compliment other materials. My customer wanted a larger window, but they had some safety concerns. We addressed their concerns by providing a larger Awning style window, using tempered glass and double locks.

Part of the Modin Vinyl Plank Collection, Available Exclusively From www.Flooret.com $3.49 / sq ft, 22.08 sq ft per box 50% WIDER. 25% LONGER. TWICE AS DURABLE Luxury Vinyl Plank, 5 mm x 9" x 60" (1.0 mm / 40 mil wear-layer) Lifetime Residential Warranty, 20 year Commercial Warranty Rich, luxurious, refined. A deep tone punctuated by a slight bleached wire-brush. Barin will lift any space, and can live up to the highest design requirements. REDEFINING DURABILITY The most important specification for determining the durability of vinyl flooring is the thickness of the wear-layer. The best wear-layers are made of thick, clear virgin PVC, which covers the paper print-film that gives the floor its unique appearance. Once the wear-layer wears through, the paper is damaged and the floor will need replacement. Most vinyl floors come with a 8-12 mil wear-layer (0.2-3 mm). The top commercial specs in the industry are higher, at 20-22 mil (0.5 mm). A select few manufacturers offer a "super" commercial spec of 28 mil (0.7 mm). For Modin, we decided to set a new standard: 40 mil (1.0 mm) of premium virgin PVC. This allows us to offer an industry-leading 20 year Commercial Warranty (Lifetime Residential), compared to nearly all other commercial vinyl floors' 10 year Commercial Warranty. Beyond our superior wear-layer, we also use a patented click mechanism for superior hold, and a ceramic-bead coating. SIZE MATTERS Wider and longer planks create a sense of space and luxury. Most vinyl floors come in 6" or 7" widths, and 36" or 48" lengths. For Modin, we designed our planks to be 9" wide, and 60" long. This extra large size allows our gorgeous designs to be fully expressed. DETAILS THAT COUNT We made sure to get all the details right. Real texture, to create the feel of wire-brushed wood. Low sheen level, to ensure a natural look that wears well over time. 4-sided bevels, to more accurately emulate the look of real planks. When added together they help create the unique look that is Modin. DESIGNS THAT INSPIRE We spent nearly a year just focusing on our designs, to ensure they provide the right mix of color and depth. Focusing on timeless wire-brush and European Oak styles, as well as more contemporary modern washes, our collection offers truly beautiful design that is both functional and inspiring.
