The powder room is often the smallest room in the house and the one guests see most. Guest and children’s bathrooms work hard with little space. Both deserve a vanity designed for the room rather than picked off a shelf.
Foscari Interiors designs and supplies vanities for powder rooms and secondary bathrooms throughout Houston. Here is what we offer.
Powder Room Vanities
A powder room vanity has a simple job, a sink and a little storage, but it can make a strong design statement because the room is small and seen by visitors.
- Compact wall-hung vanities keep the floor visible so the room feels larger.
- Floating shelves or slim consoles with a vessel or integrated sink create a sculptural look.
- Statement materials, such as a dark lacquer, a figured wood veneer or a solid-surface top, can be used here more freely than in a larger room.
- Shallow depths help in narrow powder rooms where clearance in front of the toilet matters.
Guest and Secondary Bathroom Vanities
Guest baths and children’s bathrooms need more storage and more durability:
- Drawers for toiletries, towels and supplies, ideally planned around the plumbing
- Durable finishes that handle water and daily cleaning
- Double sinks in shared bathrooms where space allows
- Tall cabinets beside the vanity for towels and linens
The Products We Use
Casabath
Casabath has made Italian bathroom furniture since 1987, with its own solid-surface materials (Monolith, Stonelith and Solid Granite) and custom aluminum profiles. Its integrated sinks and tops are a strong choice for powder rooms that should feel special.
Custom cabinetry vanities
Using the same lines we use for kitchens and closets, we can design vanities to exact dimensions and match finishes used elsewhere in the home. This is often the best approach for secondary bathrooms, especially in whole-home projects where several bathrooms are done at once.
Foscari can also coordinate countertops, plumbing fixtures, lighting and tile with the vanity.
Vanities for Builders and Townhomes
Secondary bathrooms are where builders and developers need consistency across many units. Foscari has supplied vanity cabinetry for projects such as the Crawford Townhomes, and offers lines with multi-unit pricing. See our guide to cabinetry for multi-unit projects.
Planning Tips
- Confirm the clearance in front of the vanity and toilet before choosing a depth.
- Choose the faucet with the sink, so reach and height work together.
- For wall-hung vanities, make sure the wall has blocking before drywall.
- Coordinate mirror and lighting widths with the vanity.
Foscari’s drawings show these details for your plumber and contractor.
