Bathroom Cabinet Color FAQs

Should bathroom cabinets be lighter or darker than the walls?

We love when the cabinets are a different color than the bathroom walls. Don’t be scared to add a splash of color to your bathroom cabinets. It is the perfect place to have some fun with color. If you have a small space, you may want lighter walls to help brighten the whole space.

Typically cabinets end up being darker for this reason. However, we do love a nice crisp white cabinet in a bathroom design. Architectural Digest gives a few awesome tips on how to help lighten dark bathrooms such as layered lighting and adding extra reflective surfaces.

Cabinets in the bathroom make it possible to use every centimeter of space functionally. For convenience in everyday life and to ensure everyday order in the bathroom, convenient storage systems are needed. And if textiles (towels and bathrobes) with a lack of space can be stored in other rooms, pantries or dressing rooms, then for cosmetics, perfumes, hygiene items and accessories, cleaning gels and powders, it is better to find drawers and shelves in bathroom cabinets. There is also a place for a convenient laundry basket.

It is better to think about choosing suitable models at the preliminary stage of repair, when it is planned to place all communications, plumbing, and a washing machine. On the one hand, it is necessary to determine which set of cabinets can be placed on the available space, on the other hand, to calculate what storage systems are required. For small bathrooms, models with a mirrored facade, placed above the washbasin, are convenient. In spacious rooms, you can leave a familiar mirror above the sink and complement the standard set with tall pencil cases. Manufacturers offer spacious column cabinets with shelves, drawers, compartments with hinged doors and linen baskets.

Choice of design

The choice of a bathroom cabinet is often determined by the stylistic decision of the room. Classical furniture is a variety of options from the refined and rich in decorative details of luxury, characteristic of the palaces of the epoch of the 18th-19th centuries, to the restrained retro of the early or mid-twentieth century. No less varied and modern style. Laconic minimalism, outrageous futurism, eclectic modern, Scandinavian, Mediterranean or oriental motifs - these are not all possible options.

For an interior designed in the spirit of palace classics, a pencil case from the Misty Baroque series with a relief ornament on the facades, decor stylized as antique columns, and elegant metal handles is suitable.

Another amazing piece of retro style Cezares Tulip TULIPCOLO. Curved legs, smooth lines of the body, an exquisite pattern on the facade will look great in a Provence-style bathroom. The model is offered by the manufacturer in several colors: white, walnut, mahogany, gold, silver.

The Labor Legno Victoria cabinet made of solid wood with a glass door and bronze fittings will fit into the country-style bathroom.

Those who decide to decorate the room in the spirit of minimalism will like the Duravit Ketho cabinet-pencil case.

The collection includes monophonic and combined variants of garnet red, graphite, basalt, matte white colors.

Mirror models

For small rooms, in order to save space, it is advisable to choose cabinets with a mirrored facade instead of standard mirrors. There are non-standard ideas in the Keuco catalog. The Edition 11 collection captivates with restraint and visual lightness. A crystal flip door and side wings with retractable mirror and fluorescent lighting add charm to a high-tech bathroom.

The Keuco Royal Metropol line includes cabinets with a mirrored front surface and spectacular side lighting. This model is suitable for both compact and spacious bathrooms.

Not only small wall-mounted models above the washbasin can be mirrored, but also tall capacious cabinets: the Hatria brand has such options.

If the design of the bathroom provides for the placement of bright accents, you can take a closer look at the Misty Carolina series.

Eye-catching stained-glass inserts can be selected either according to the principle of contrast or to match the wall decoration materials. The catalog has models with blue, pink, red, black, yellow, green decor.

Bathroom cabinets

Floor-mounted models are a traditional solution for furniture sets. They do not require special installation and are usually more capacious than mounted ones.

A little romance will be brought to the atmosphere by the model of the Russian brand Briklaer from the Anna collection. The body of the pencil case is decorated with elegant milling, and the fittings are made of porcelain.

Another model from the classic collections of domestic brands - Misty Charme - is distinguished by the original relief of the facade. Hinged doors are equipped with left or right hinges.

An unusual idea is to dilute the loft wall decoration with antique-styled La Beaute Joanna furniture.

A spectacular solution for classic bathrooms is the Devon & Devon Dancer series. Elegant painted wood cabinets with glass doors sit on the floor on curved legs, recreating an authentic retro vibe.

The lacquered case of the product can be made in one-color or two-color version. The offered shades are red, blue, black, cream, white, plum, gray.

Pendant models

Suspended can be both small cabinets that are attached to the wall above the washbasin, and roomy columns with hinged, sliding, rising doors. The main advantage of mounted models is the free space on the floor under them. This design makes everyday cleaning easier. But for their installation, solid walls are needed that can withstand the weight of both the furniture itself and its filling.

Bold solutions for bathrooms decorated in a modern style can be found in the Labor Legno Matrix series. Open models visually lighten the interior. A multi-color solution would be appropriate in a bathroom, the walls of which will be finished in the same shades.

And the Labor Legno Botton model attracts with an abundance of drawers, convenient for system storage of things.

The texture of the wood in wenge color looks noble and respectable.

Budget collection cabinets

Beautiful designer furniture doesn't have to be expensive. In the catalogs of Russian companies, it is easy to find which cabinet is suitable for the chosen style. So, the Briclayer Chile pencil case looks very elegant and strict.

It is convenient in that it provides for different types of storage systems: drawers, a compartment with a laundry basket, standard shelves.

Available models are offered not only by Russian, but also by foreign manufacturers:

The Duravit X-Large pencil case will look stylish and modern in a spacious bathroom.

Belbagno Fly-Marino lockers will decorate the Mediterranean interior.

In a minimalist bathroom, snow-white Ravak Chrome models will be appropriate.

And in a bathroom with a less strict design, you can choose two-tone ones - with side walls in onyx or cappuccino colors.

Unusual ideas in the collections of foreign manufacturers

German brands usually focus on practicality and give preference to modern style. Choosing the Villeroy&Boch Subway 2.0 wardrobe is a non-standard shelving solution that is interesting for both loft interiors and bathrooms with a nautical design.

Those who prefer classic forms will be interested in the collections of Italian companies. Paneled wardrobe with a decor in the form of a lily Migliore Bella - stylization under the French antiquity.

An elegant cabinet on curved legs Globo Paestum will give a spacious bathroom an aristocratic gloss.

Such furniture is produced in three color options: wenge, silver, gold leaf.

Custom-made painted bathroom furniture

I would like to express my gratitude to Cherry for good cuisine. I've been using it for 2 months now and I'm very happy with it. Quite by accident I went to calculate the cost of the kitchen and was pleasantly surprised by the price. The manager Karina suggested everything, showed closers and roll-out mechanisms, manufacturing materials at the exhibition copies. Completed everything on time, collected in 1 day. There were a few issues with tempered glass, but they fixed it. Roll-out drawers roll out completely, doors with closers close themselves. The quality of the plastic is good, with artificial lighting the light is reflected from the glossy surface. Tempered glass is just amazing! And not only I am satisfied with the open shelves, but also the cat! Thank you, Cherry Furniture, look forward to further cooperation.

I want to say thank you, well done, everything is fast, neat, I liked everything, and thanks to Karina and the assemblers, health to you, prosperity, we will definitely contact you again! Marina, Ordzhonikidze

I have been ordering furniture from the Cherry company for about two years. For me, on time and with high quality, taking into account all my wishes, it was made: a kitchen set, a dressing room, a chest of drawers, bedside tables and a bed with a soft headrest. I recommend the company to everyone. I will continue to work with her. The staff is friendly and attentive. The assemblers do everything very quickly and efficiently.

I want to note the professionalism, tact and friendliness of designer Karina and installer Alexander). Karina showed a lot of patience when working with us, gave the necessary recommendations and explanations, provided all the discounts (declared on the site), took into account all our wishes.

Everything is fine, I was satisfied with the quality and price. Special thanks to the girls in the salon, the wardrobe turned out to be functional and easy to use.

Hello everyone. Usually I don’t write reviews, but when ordering a kitchen, they gave me a stone sink, as I dreamed) and was asked to write a review. The kitchenette turned out wonderful, beautiful and ... everything is super! Order from Cherry.

Hello, I recommend Cherry Furniture to everyone! This is a very good company that is very fast and makes quality furniture. I ordered a veneered kitchen I thought that I would wait a long time and the price could be high, but that's all turned out great and not too expensive! I recommend Cherry Furniture to everyone and I wish you all the best!

Hello everyone. I want to tell you about cherrymebel company. On July 15, 2019, we ordered furniture for the bathroom (a hanging cabinet under the sink) and cabinets for the balcony for storage. We didn’t look for a long time, a friend of the cherrymebel family advised us, he made furniture for the bedroom and said that everything was cool! We agreed on a meeting, we have already made a design project, but still it is better to look at those to whom we give our money live. We decided that we would make the cabinet in the bathroom veneered. In the salon, the manager said that it was more reliable, as was painted MDF for damp rooms. And they didn’t spend money on wardrobes for the balcony, they ordered them from the cheapest chipboard, although we were warned that if there was a leak in the windows, then the chipboard could collapse. Anyway, we did not listen, ordered cabinets made of chipboard. They set us a deadline of 25 working days, but surprisingly after 3 weeks they called us from the store and said that the order was ready and they didn’t want to meet it before the deadline) Of course, we were delighted. The furniture was brought already assembled, surprisingly, the installers lifted everything and installed it in 3 hours, but forgot some pieces of plugs on the balcony. They said they would deliver tomorrow. We wrote in the act that there are no plugs. Surprisingly, the installer called in the evening and said, can I drive up to you in the morning? And the truth came set the next morning. We liked this approach to work (usually everyone pulls to the last . ..), but here everything is fine. In general, in a word, well done!

Hello) I would like to express my gratitude to the Cheri furniture factory. We were looking for where to order a living room for ourselves, the most important thing is that the color of the facades matches the color of the panel on the wall. We contacted other companies and asked them to paint for us, to show the quality of painting, they all unanimously asked for an advance payment for furniture, and then only for painting (Cherry said - no problem! First, we calculated our living room with them, agreed on all the drawers of the shelf hinges we are important, because the quality is more important than the price at the moment). We agreed that in 4 days a measurer would come to us with painting the facades. After 3 days, Michael called and came to us, checked everything again, discussed the points that concern us. One of the flowers was just ours. Everyone signed, the payment was made remotely. According to the terms of 25 working days.
