Top Trends in Custom Bathroom Cabinet Design

This is a frequent scenario, “They update their bathroom with a new sink, tub, or floor plan but their old cabinetry no longer fits. A custom solution ensures everything aligns perfectly.

If you’re planning a bathroom renovation, don’t underestimate the power of custom cabinetry. Bathroom cabinets aren’t just about storage—they’re key to setting the tone for the entire space. From sleek modern finishes to smart functionality, here are the top trends in custom bathroom cabinet design that are making waves this year.

1. Floating vanities for Illusion of more space

Floating vanities continue to dominate in both small and large bathrooms. These wall-mounted cabinets create the illusion of more space while visually open up the room, making even small bathrooms feel large, lighter and airy. Custom floating vanities allow you to adjust height, depth, and configuration based on your specific needs and plumbing layout.

2. Natural wood finishes

Warm tones, rich textures, and natural materials are taking over sterile whites and greys. Custom cabinetry in walnut, white oak is gaining popularity, especially when paired with stone countertops and matte black or brass hardware. This earthy, spa-like vibe adds depth and character to any bathroom.

3. Smart storage solutions

Organization is everything in a bathroom, especially when space is limited. The latest trend in custom design? Clever built-in features like maple dovetail drawers, hidden hampers, and vertical drawers for hair tools or cosmetics, we design U-Shaped drawer cut outs that wrap around the plumbing. Custom cabinets give you the flexibility to create exactly what you need without sacrificing style.

    4. Variety on colors and textures

While neutrals remain timeless, bolder colors are making a comeback. Forest green, woodgrain finishes, and even matte black are showing up in custom vanities. With custom cabinets, you’re not limited to factory colors—your designer can help match your cabinetry to your unique palette for a one-of-a-kind look.

      5. Integrated Lighting

LED lighting built into cabinetry is both practical and luxurious. Think under-cabinet lights for ambiance, or integrated lighting inside drawers and mirrors for better visibility. These custom features elevate both function and design, making your bathroom feel like a high-end retreat.

      6. Mixed Materials and texture

Designers are playing with contrast—mixing wood with porcelain, glossy finishes with matte, or cabinetry with integrated stone details. A custom approach allows you to get creative and tailor the finishes to your overall design vision.

Custom bathroom cabinets aren’t just about looks—they’re about making your space work better for you. Every home and client is different, and a custom solution means your cabinetry will reflect your lifestyle, storage needs, and personal taste. From initial consultation and space planning to manufacturing and installation, our team ensures every detail is thoughtfully designed and executed.

Why go custom when cheaper options exist?

It’s true—mass-produced, imported cabinets (often from overseas) can be more affordable upfront. But here’s what you get when you go custom:

1. Built for Your Space

Off-the-shelf cabinets come in fixed sizes. That means fillers, gaps, and awkward compromises. Custom cabinetry is designed to fit perfectly—whether your walls are crooked, your space is tight, or you need special solutions for storage, plumbing, or appliances.

2. Designed Around Your Needs

With custom, you’re not limited by what’s in the catalogue.Need deeper drawers? Hidden hampers? Built-in lighting or charging stations? We can make it happen—because every detail is made to fit your day to day life.

3. Higher Quality Materials & Craftsmanship

Cheaper cabinets are often made with low-quality materials like weak particle board, thin veneers, and joints that don’t hold up over time.Custom bathroom cabinets are built to last—with premium materials, durable finishes, and expert craftsmanship that stands up to daily use.

4. Smarter Investment Long-Term

While cheaper cabinets might save money now, they can end up bending or losing their shape over time, costing you more in replacements or repairs.Custom cabinetry is a smart, long-term investment that adds real value to your home or business.

5. Personalized Design & Support

With custom, you don’t just buy a cabinet—you work with a professional who guides you through layout, materials, colors, and finishes, offering expert advice and ongoing support.
