DESIGN NOTES

Relaxation Is A Must

While the kitchen may be the heart of the home, the bathroom is a place of relaxation—and the bathroom cabinet plays a key role in creating that peaceful retreat. It’s where we can shed the stress of the office, recover from the rush of the day, and enjoy a moment of solitude. Over time, bathrooms have evolved from simple, functional spaces into personal sanctuaries—complete with beautifully designed bathroom cabinets that offer both style and organization. This is the one room in the home that truly signifies peace and tranquility.

Extras You Need

While the extras like lighting, tile, and storage are important, the bathroom cabinets in Charlotte, NC, are key to creating a pleasing space. It is the cabinets that can transform the entire look of the bathroom while providing the storage needed for essentials like toiletries, cosmetics, and other necessities.*

Design Matters

A well-thought-out bathroom and cabinet design can allow homeowners to store all the things they need to properly function within the bathroom while keeping it beautiful and clutter-free.

Popular Cabinet Styles

Creating bathroom cabinets out of wood, one of the most popular materials used today, allows for staining or painting in any color. This allows for a truly custom experience that enables the homeowner to have a bathroom that is entirely reflective of their personality and style. Learn more about some of the most popular bathroom cabinet styles and the benefits of each.

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. There are also multiple ways to customize these cabinets, such as adding beaded inserts or moldings that reflect your unique style.

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.
