Whether you’re looking to maximise a narrow layout or want something that simply fits and flows, these pieces are proof that small can still be seriously stunning.
Ava Reeded Oak Vanity Unit - Undermounted Basin
The Ava Reeded Oak Vanity is a dream for small bathrooms with modern tastes. Its slender legs and reeded oak detailing give it a light and airy feel—perfect for avoiding that bulky look some vanities have in tighter spaces.
- The undermounted basin tucks seamlessly into the surface, keeping things clean and clutter-free.
- Add a round mirror and matte black tapware for a Scandi-inspired minimalist finish.
- Pair with floating shelves above for added storage without overwhelming the wall space.
Why it works in small bathrooms: Its open-leg design keeps sightlines clear and floor space visible, which instantly makes the room feel larger.
Albert Oak Bathroom Vanity Unit - Undercounter Basin
If you love a clean, no-fuss aesthetic, the Albert is your match. This vanity features a solid oak frame with classic straight lines that bring a grounded feel without being overpowering.
- The undercounter basin keeps the silhouette neat and low-profile.
- It’s compact but includes useful drawer storage to hide away your everyday bits and bobs.
- Style with crisp white towels, chrome accessories, and warm wall lighting for a spa-like vibe.
Why it works in small bathrooms: Its compact footprint and timeless shape make it easy to tuck into a corner or slot along a narrow wall without compromising on charm.
Ava Wall Hung Reeded Oak Vanity Unit - Undermounted Basin
Floating vanities are a small-space game-changer, and this wall-hung version of the Ava is no exception. By mounting the vanity off the floor, it visually expands your bathroom—hello, open floors and easier cleaning!
- The reeded oak finish brings rich texture and warmth, softening the modern shape.
- Match with geometric tiles and brass fixtures for a boutique hotel feel.
- A great choice for ensuites or cloakrooms where space is especially tight.
Why it works in small bathrooms: Being wall-hung makes it feel like it’s floating—creating the illusion of more room while still offering practical storage.
Oscar Reeded Oak Shaker Vanity Unit - Undermounted Basin
This one's a clever blend of old and new. The Oscar combines traditional shaker design with contemporary reeded detailing, making it super versatile no matter your bathroom’s aesthetic.
- Its compact shape makes it a great standalone statement in smaller layouts.
- Works beautifully with a bold tiled floor or half-painted walls to contrast the wood tones.
- Add soft brass handles and an oval mirror for a warm, curated look.
Why it works in small bathrooms: The combination of classic lines and compact structure allows you to introduce a strong design element without visually crowding the space.
Charlotte Oak Large Vanity Unit - Sit On Basins
The Charlotte’s elongated, narrow frame makes it ideal for long or galley-style bathrooms where wall length is available, but depth is limited.
- The double sit-on basins are a godsend for couples, or just those who love their own side.
- The unit’s slim silhouette keeps it from dominating the space.
- Pair with tall mirrors and sconces for vertical balance and a luxe finish.
Why it works in narrow bathrooms: Its extended length offers double functionality while staying shallow enough to maintain plenty of floor space.
Final Style Tips for Small Bathroom Bliss:
- Wall-mounted accessories free up surface space—think soap dishes, toothbrush holders, and towel rails.
- Large mirrors reflect light and make a small bathroom feel twice the size.
- Stick to a light, neutral palette with wood tones for warmth and contrast.
- Consider under-vanity lighting or integrated LED mirrors for that elevated spa feel.
