Fixtures and Faucets: Bathroom Sinks With Style

Brass fixtures dress up the cool marble countertop in this bathroom. The brass's warm hues are continued via wood accessories, like the mirror and soap dispenser.

The powder room’s sink features a round basin with a subtly textured shagreen design with a muddy green finish for a serious style statement. A marbleized soap dispenser and small glass vases with fresh cuttings on each side of the sink decorate the uncluttered top of the vanity.

A double sink can help avoid bedtime bottleneck in the bathroom when kids are trying to brush their teeth and wash up at the same time.

This traditional black bathroom faucet has a brushed metal finish that feels timeless and elegant.

"With its vibrant colors and playful design, the sink, which was created in Mexico, reflects an influence of Spanish design," says designer Tatiana Machado-Rosas of Jackson Design and Remodeling. "The sink is intended as the focal point in the room, so the rest of the space was kept in neutral tones to make the visual impression of the sink even more dramatic," Tatiana says.

"The brushed-nickel fixtures were selected in a simple, stylish, easy-to-clean design that would not distract from the sink’s visual impact."

When working with this small bathroom for two children, Rob Glisson of Rojo Architecture decided to forgo a space-sucking vanity countertop for these modern metal console sinks that are topped off in playful blue glass.

"This worked perfectly in the white-tiled bathroom and [along with yellow walls] provided a punch of color. The faucet was a nice and simple faucet with a blue ball on the handle. This had a very playful look and went nicely with the sink glass top," Rob says.

"Clean, contemporary, timeless and functional were the objectives for this master bath," says designer Elizabeth Bomberger of Life Well Lived.

"Everything in the space is slightly off center, but in a very calculated way," Elizabeth says. "The mirror splits open at the same ratio that the contrasting-sized doors on the vanity open. And the two sink faucet handles are both to the right side of the faucet, yet the faucet is still centered on the [slope-integrated] sink. The unusual proportions were created as yet another way to add interest, but through a very subtle, refined application."

With a stunning view of the Puget Sound, this bathroom has a calm, serene feel. The custom stone sink features a hidden drain, and minimalistic faucets work to keep the overall look balanced, cohesive and contemporary.

We don't often think of what's going on on the underside of the sink. This color-dipped sink shows how a bright pop where you least expect it can be the perfect touch in a small bathrooom made for two.

"To start, we didn’t just use a typical vanity," says designer Andrea Schumacher. "We found a dresser we loved and altered it to have a hammered-copper vessel sink and added our own special hardware."

"We were going for 'Mountain Modern' and achieved that by warmth in material choices," Andrea says.

"I felt that a traditional cabinet vanity would have been too much wood in the space," says designer Shane Inman. "I have always adored pedestal sinks, and this one had great stylized legs that accentuated the overall design."

"The fixtures were all selected for their oil-rubbed bronze finish, and all were in unison with the square design that was implemented," Shane says. "When shopping for fixtures, keep in mind that not only are they beautiful to look at, they are also very functional in our everyday lives. I look for brands that have a reputation of performance, durability and customer service."

To create enough space in this small bathroom to have the luxury of two sinks, the designers positioned square marble sinks on either side of the vanity, with the tall faucets to the side. The overall effect is contemporary and oh-so chic.

"The idea of three sinks in one stylish trough makes this design unique, creative and functional," says designer Kirsten Becker. "The client had three teenage daughters and wanted them to learn to share while still enjoying their individual use."

"Troughs are often simply hung on the wall for a clean and simple look, but for this high-use space, the custom shelf behind the sink and wash stand below offered storage and practical function," Kirsten says.

With tons of texture and the feel of movement provided by the wavy pattern on the wall, a curvy black sink simply flowed perfectly with the design aesthetic. The mirroring of the wave detail created cohesion in this "under-the-sea," ethereal bathroom. A tall, side-positioned faucet allows the sink to be the star, while freeing up precious countertop space.

A mix of natural stone and industrial metals comes together to create a unique guest bathroom design that's a real showpiece in the home. The concrete ramp sink is an edgy, artful choice, while the bridge-style faucet fits in perfectly with the contemporary, industrial feel.
