20 Bathroom Cabinet Ideas for a Super-Stylish Storage

When space is scarce but ideas to decorate it are abundant, the key is to bring smart solutions to the table. Whether your bathroom is large or compact, we have you covered in this blog. Read on as we have curated a list of amazing hacks and ideas to make your bathroom a well-organised storage haven and a functional space that provides a tranquil environment to unwind and refresh. Here are 20 bathroom cabinet ideas that blend style with practicality, ensuring your storage is as beautiful as it is useful.

All About Cabinets

• Whites for elegance

Wherever whites are put, they exude elegance. So cabinets in these tones offer timelessness and versatility. They brighten up your bathroom, making it feel spacious and clean. If confused about the styling, opt for shaker-style doors for a touch of traditional charm or sleek flat panels for a modern look. You can also pair white cabinets with granite tile for countertops, and chrome fixtures to enhance the overall vibe. 

• Choosing the Right Tiles 

In terms of choosing the perfect tiles for your property’s small bathrooms, we advise you to go with lighter hues like off-white, beige, grey, and other pastel-coloured tiles and see how they work with the cabinets. To enhance a sense of space, you can use some colourful bathroom tiles with a glossy sheen. To minimise bulkiness in the area, they work well with simple, sleek cabinetry. You can go with DGVT SafeGrip Rustic Grey LT, ODG Real Travertine Beige Dk and many such lighter tones available with Orientbell Tiles.

Larger bathrooms, however, demand different approaches. Here, you have the freedom to experiment with bolder and darker tiles. If your cabinets have a lighter tint, give depth and glitz to the room by selecting deep colours like darker grey, browns, or patterned tiles on the wall such as ODG Real Travertine Beige DK to add depth and glamour. You can also think about HWG Khadi Gris LT or any such similar darker-tone tile from Orientbell Tiles.

• Floating Vanities

Floating vanities are important factors for both compact and big-sized bathrooms. These wall-mounted cabinets free up floor space, making your bathroom appear larger. Choose a vanity with integrated sinks and ample drawer space to keep the countertop clutter-free. This style works well with minimalist design schemes.

• Rustic Charm

To bring warmth to your bathroom, add some rustic elements to the wooden cabinets. You can go for reclaimed wood or distressed finishes to add a cosy, vintage touch. This style is particularly appealing in bungalows, farmhouses, or country-themed bathrooms.

• Reflective Cabinets 

Add mirrored cabinets to your bathroom cabinet as they serve dual purposes; provide both storage and as well as an upscale vibe to brighten the room. Choose them for small bathrooms, as they can make the area feel more open. Consider a cabinet with built-in LED lighting for added functionality, which is quite a trend these days.

• Open Shelving For a Relaxed Look

 Choose open shelving if you want to add beautiful decor items to your bathroom space. To keep smaller items organised you can use small baskets or bins. For a more soothing feel, consider open shelving cabinets.

• Extra Long Cabinets

 Again, if you have a large space, then you have ample options. So, maximise your storage by installing the cabinets whose length will go from floor to ceiling. Such cabinets can house everything from linens to cleaning supplies, medical essentials, etc. When you are going to finalise them, keep a few things in mind. Buy a mix of open shelving, drawers, and closed compartments to keep your storage handy, versatile, and organised.

• Corner Bathroom Cabinet

The hack here is to make the most of every inch in your bathroom by utilising corner cabinets. These can be custom-built to fit the unused corners, providing additional storage without taking up much floor space. Corner cabinets are ideal for small bathrooms or awkwardly shaped spaces.

• Gender-based Vanities

Ever heard of his or her vanity? These are quite a thing these days. Double vanities with separate storage spaces for each person can streamline your morning routine. With this, you do not have to stress about looking for your stuff in the pool of items. You know which item is yours when you open the drawer in your cabinet. 

• Indian-style bathroom cabinets

When looking to add a bit of Indianness to your bathroom space, go with a blend of traditional and modern elements. Here are some tips for incorporating cabinets into Indian bathrooms:

• Traditional wooden cabinets

Allow all the rich, dark woods to have a luxurious and traditional feel. Add gold, intricate carvings, and brass handles for ethnic charm. These cabinets work well with natural stone or ceramic tiles that are commonly found in Indian bathrooms.

• Carved and Painted Cabinets

Bring the hand-painted cabinets to add a touch of artistry to your bathroom. You can try buying such cabinets at the local market and using them to store toiletries and towels. Pair them with patterned tiles such as the OTF Bargello Pattern from Orientbell Tiles that reflect traditional Indian motifs.

• Compact Bathroom

Still, most of the bathrooms in India are compact, and given the small nature of many Indian bathrooms, space-saving solutions are crucial. Place wall-mounted cabinets or slim, tall storage units that make the most of vertical space. Floating vanities and recessed cabinets are ideal for maximising floor space.

• Under-Sink Storage

Is there a space left under the sink in your bathroom? You can use that with custom cabinets or shelving. Measure the area and get a customised cabinet. Put your cleaning supplies, toiletries, and towels to maximise accessibility and organisation.

• Colourful Cabinets

Colours are an essential part of your home. So, why not add a pop of colour to your bathroom with vibrant cabinets? Bold tones like royal blue, algae green, or maroon can make a striking statement. So when you have colourful cabinets, pair them with neutral walls and fixtures to balance the look. This approach works well in both contemporary and eclectic bathrooms.

• Sliding Door Cabinets

 As already used in flat bathrooms in many places, sliding door cabinets are a smart solution for tight spaces since swinging doors are impractical. They offer easy access to your stored items while maintaining a sleek and modern appearance. This style is especially useful in small bathrooms or for adding extra storage in narrow spaces.

• Multifunctional Storage

You go to the furniture market and see how it is filled with furniture pieces that offer additional storage, such as benches with hidden compartments or stools with storage areas. Looking at the space issue these days, multi-functional pieces come in handy and provide extra storage without taking up too much space. They are ideal for maximising storage in small bathrooms.
