Inset Style Cabinets

Precision is the number one word used to describe the inset style cabinets. Some of the features include drawers and doors that fit inside the cabinet versus extending beyond the cabinet frame. This style of cabinets was popular during the Victorian and Georgian eras and has been making a comeback in recent years. Learn a little more here. This style is a fantastic choice for bathroom cabinets. Some of the benefits of this style are a unified look in the design, the ability to save space due to the absence of the overlay, and, of course, it has one of the best aesthetically pleasing looks.

Flat Style Cabinets

This is an excellent choice for those looking to have a more modern, contemporary, or industrial-style bathroom. While Shaker-style cabinets tend to be the most popular because of their traditional look, flat-style cabinets, also known as “slab” cabinet doors, are on the rise due to their ability to create a modern space. Since they are constructed from a single piece of wood, they are considered frameless cabinets. This style can create a contemporary look or a minimalist one due to the sleek, elegant, and uncomplicated final design. Adding a small amount of hardware can add the final touch to these bathroom cabinets.

Shaker Style Cabinets

These tend to be the most popular style of cabinets used in kitchens and bathrooms because of their versatility. Initially designed by those in the Shaker faith to be simple, functional, and durable, these cabinets still hold to these principles, but have also become more flexible. White Shaker cabinets tend to be reflective of an elegant, feminine style, while the warmer woods tend to be representative of a strong, masculine feel. The timeless elegance of these cabinets is a perfect fit for any bathroom and can also increase the value of the home.
