Striking the right balance between having enough storage and owning a bathroom or ensuite with Insta-worthy looks is tricky – we know. So, we’ve put together a helpful guide and inspiration gallery on how to take your setup to the next level.
To help you sort your storage needs, we’ve picked the brains of Nicola Friel, showroom manager at VitrA’s flagship showroom in London, and asked her to share her expert advice on maximising your space with bathroom furniture – all sizes and styles in mind.
“Something to consider is combining tall and standard bathroom units to create a harmonious balance between functionality and aesthetics. This will open up more space while adding visual interest and depth to your bathroom,” says Nicola.
“Wall-mounted bathroom units offer both style and storage space. And, because they float above the floor, they also create an illusion of spaciousness while also simplifying cleaning with easy underneath access.”
If either of these techniques sounds good to you, Nicola reveals a few VitrA bathroom staples that could help you boost your organisation skills…
Wall-mounted bathroom furniture
M-Line is the latest addition to VitrA’s furniture line-up. Designed to adapt to diverse layouts, the collection’s two new ranges – Edge and Pure – are ideal for all kinds of bathrooms, from family-friendly designs to boutique ensuites. “All M-Line furniture pieces are wall-mounted, reclaiming valuable floor space and creating the illusion of a bigger bathroom,” explains Nicola.
Available in a variety of colour finishes and configuration options, this collection caters for different design visions and budgets, whilst offering hard-working storage options.
M-Line Edge includes washbasin units in a choice of warm wood tones including Walnut, Black Oak and Light Oak. The sizes vary from 60cm to 120cm and feature two roomy drawers, so you can keep all your bathroom essentials on hand.
What’s more, multi-functional mirror cabinets are a great option for organising your toiletries while also maximising wall space. “You can achieve design harmony by matching the M-Line Edge 60cm single or double-sided 80cm mirrors, which feature clever and convenient storage space with ambient lighting,” says Nicola.
If you want affordable luxury, then you’ll love the M-Line Pure range, which offers cabinetry in stylish and modern Matt Graphite, Matt Light Grey and High Gloss White finishes. It includes washbasin cabinets and vanity units in 60cm and 80cm sizes.
Both ranges have complementary tall storage units, adding yet another practical and stylish storage option to the collection.
Mix and match storage solutions
“Effective storage in a bathroom can effortlessly combine beauty and functionality,” says Nicola. Whether you need compact, floor-standing or wall-mounted units, VitrA’s Root furniture pieces not only enhance your space aesthetically but also offer practical solutions for keeping your bathroom neat and tidy.
The customisable Root furniture range is available in nine finishes, three design options and sizes ranging from 45cm to 100cm. So, why not consider combining a colourful Root tall unit with a wall-mounted vanity for an elevated, mood-boosting storage experience in your bathroom?
Love a clean and minimalist look? Nicola recommends embracing organic design in your bathroom, with VitrA’s Sento furniture. “Sento features many clever storage solutions, such as drawers in each unit and tall units, with the option for built-in laundry baskets – perfect for decluttering your bathroom.”
Inspired by Scandinavian style, and available in four earthy tones – Matt White, Matt Light Grey, Matt Fjord Green and Matt Anthracite – Sento blends functionality with natural design.
