Bathroom sinks are the one necessary fixture in the bathroom that is available in the widest range of style options. From vintage to modern, porcelain to granite, the choice of styles, materials, and size combinations are nearly limitless. Small bathroom sinks, in particular, seem to be in the highest demand right now, judging by the large number of them on local home improvement store shelves. They are ideal for both older bathrooms with limited square footage, as well as guest bathrooms where substantial space is not needed. Within the small bathroom sink category, there are several unique designs to choose from.
Corner Sinks
Ideal for extremely small spaces, a corner sink makes the best use of the space that is available by fitting into the corner of a bathroom as opposed to being set flush up against only one wall. The corner placement also allows the main walls in the bathroom to be used for more important fixtures such as the toilet, the bath tub, and the shower, when these fixtures are present in the room. Corner sinks are typically created in the pedestal sink design, further creating the illusion of a more spacious are by eliminating the need for a bulky support structure. Corner pedestal sinks provide a beautiful vintage feel and can be perfect for consumers looking to create an antique inspired bathroom or those seeking an old world charm.
Wall Mount Sinks
If you wish to further emphasize the illusion of increased space, a wall mount sink may be the ideal choice for your needs. Supported solely by its connection the the wall it is mounted to, this design requires no base structure at all. The additional floor space that is freed up beneath the sink can be used for a variety of needs, both functional and decorative. Wall mount sinks also provide a unique and modern design and can be ideal for consumers who prefer minimalistic design schemes.
Vanity Sinks
While most vanity sinks can be rather large and cumbersome, designed with maximum storage capacity in mind, they are made in smaller versions. Several styles of vanity sinks are available that are two feet or less in total width, greatly reducing the amount of space that would be taken up by a traditional sized vanity sink that can typically measure three or more feet in width. If you are looking for a small sink in order to maximize the space available in a small bathroom, the reduced width vanity sinks can also provide some storage for small bathroom essentials. This type of sink is also ideal for powder rooms that may not have an adjacent storage closet. A small vanity sink allows frequently used cleaning supplies to be stored under the sink where they are easy to access as well as out of sight.
Regardless of your bathroom needs, there are several varieties of small bathroom sinks that can provide the perfect solution to maximize your space. The various styles available also allow you to choose the perfect design to suit your personal tastes as well as the overall décor of your bathroom.
