Large mediterranean beige one-story stucco exterior home idea in Miami with a hip roof

This large master bathroom was fairly unoffensive. In fact, it was boring! Simple builder grade material made this bathroom unmemorable with the exception of the large corner bathtub that swallowed nearly half of the space. This couple wanted to create a practical and beautiful new master bathroom that would be worth remembering. We settled on a neutral color palette of white and gray while using antique brass accents to warm the new space. The end result is a bathroom that feels updated and timeless along with being practical for this busy family.

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

The small-scale Briggs tables are created from floor tiles of automotive stamping plants from across the Midwest, primarily made of domestic hickory. The machinery used in these plants required thick, durable flooring so it could travel across the plant, carrying incredibly heavy product. The bolts in each tabletop are from the original tile and help hold the table together. Paired with a natural steel base, Briggs will make for a unique statement in your home with a story you'd be proud to share. Because each Briggs table is one-of-a-kind, the tabletop color will vary slightly between light brown and golden brown hues.

This contemporary home got a face lift with a fully gutted kitchen, laundry and den. The original kitchen had a poor layout with a corner sink cab that swallowed up valuable storage space. The added center island had limited clearance causing the owners to bump into it at every turn. The storage was poorly planned and non-functional. We were able to relocate the sink, adjust the angle of the peninsula allowing a better more open flow for this busy family while provided more storage with fewer cabinets than they had before.

New girls bathroom in adjacent Playroom, designed for two young sisters to share as well as used by guests.
My concept was to create a whimsical, yet more grown-up feel by creating a pattern of white birds and butterflies in flight, throughout a bluesky background. Custom designed, hand cut swallows & butterflies made out of stained glass with other glass details embedded into sheets of gradient blue glass field tile.

Blossom End Rot (BER) is not a disease, it's a physiological condition of tomatoes. It usually occurs after a heat wave early in the summer, and arises when the plant's growth outstrips its ability to deliver water all the way to the tip of the fruit. It usually only affects the tomato trusses that are growing rapidly at the time.
Irregular or inadequate water is the most common cause, and over-fertilization can contribute. Inadequate calcium was once thought to be the culprit, but only in rare cases is calcium deficiency the cause. BER is common in container-grown tomatoes.
Affected tomatoes are still edible, just cut off the bad part of the fruit. With adequate water, the problem usually self-corrects, but if you want to avoid it entirely, grow cherry tomatoes. Photo by Steve Masley
