Bathroom Vessel Sinks - Fad
Or Fabulous?
Thinking a
vessel sink for your new
bathroom but worried about the
lifespan of the style? This is a
legitimate worry with any
renovation or new home design.
Fads come and go with last
year's or last decade's style
often leaving something to be
desired.
Floor covering is probably the
worst for this as there is a
considerable expense in
replacing it and any good carpet
or flooring should last for a
minimum of ten years with some
lasting as long as twenty years.
Unless you pick a mid-tone
hardwood, your house is
instantly dated if you chose a
trendy floor covering with a
twenty-year warranty. Look at
the orange shag of the seventies
– how many decades did it linger
in rental properties and your
grandmother’s front room before
it finally died a slow and
cathartic death?
In the
bathroom, your sink and
faucet choice will last equally
as long – possibly even longer
with proper cleaning and
maintenance. Do you play it safe
and install the traditional
white in counter sink and basic
faucet? Or do you listen to that
little voice that screams
‘vessel sink’ every time you
look through an interior design
magazine?
Good news – experts agree that
the bathroom vessel sink is here
to stay. The consensus is that
now that the public has had a
taste of how spectacular a
bathroom can look while still
being entirely functional, there
is no looking back.
As bathrooms become more and
more a place of refuge from the
hectic world outside, homeowners
are looking for more ways to
express their individuality and
unique style. The limitations of
the standard white built-in sink
not only restrict this
individuality but are also
downright mundane. Still a
little nervous about going with
your heart on this decision?
Choose a vessel sink that has
classic lines and is made from a
timeless material such as copper
or stone. As bathroom styles
evolve, colors, cabinetry and
faucets can be replaced or
updated. A sandstone or aged
copper sink will never lose its
style and yet lends itself to
any interior fashion change.
Versatile yet ageless, the
vessel sink is a safe bet for
your bathroom style thankfully
without the fear of it going the
way of the orange shag carpet.
