Bathroom Vanities and Some Apartment Therapy

Pulling the cabinetry away from the side walls in a bathroom yields a unique look in a bathroom.  I love doing this in powder rooms especially.  The cabinet seems more like a piece of furniture and it makes for a nice transition of materials.  Here are some great examples.

This one above was not a piece of furniture, just designed to look like one.

This is one of my remodels. I pulled the cabinet away from both sides.  Above, the left side could have butted into a partial wall at the shower. It would've made maximum use of storage, but a partial wall would not be so cleanly detailed. Below, it is pulled away from the other side wall (behind the robe). It gives the piece a more prominent look in the bathroom and has a lighter, roomier effect.
