BUYING GUIDE

Choosing a vanity unit for commercial spaces

In commercial settings such as hotels, spas, restaurant bathrooms, and high-end offices, first impressions always count. Every design decision contributes to a customer's perception of your brand, and bathroom interiors are no exception. Vanity units, once seen as simply functional, have become key statement pieces bringing storage space, sinks and style to bathrooms.

Our vanity units are crafted with premium materials adding elegance and durability into your commercial space. If you’re fitting a commercial bathroom and want to strike a balance between luxury and attainability, this guide will help you choose the right vanity unit for your space.


Why Are Vanity Units Essential for Commercial Spaces?


In commercial environments, where bathrooms are used frequently and should remain clean, efficient and stylish vanity units are essential. Both function and impression are an important element of commercial spaces, the right vanity unit will become a pivotal part of your guests experience. Here are several reasons why investing in a vanity unit will elevate your property:

Vanity units discreetly hide plumbing, but more importantly they provide concealed space for essential items that support both guest comfort and operational efficiency. Built-in storage allows for a beautiful presentation of high-end toiletries, towels and grooming products, without cluttering the countertop. This not only enhances the visual appeal but also contributes to the serene ambience expected in luxury spaces.

A well-chosen vanity can transform a bathroom’s look, projecting a high-end, thoughtfully designed aesthetic. As the bathroom is a space that often serves as a guest's moment of reflection, it should be a memorable experience. A vanity unit becomes the visual anchor, setting the tone for the entire room. It introduces texture, shape, proportion and materiality that immediately signals luxury.

In commercial environments guest turnover is high and expectations align with this, so maintenance and hygiene must be seamless, efficient and invisible. Vanity units crafted from quality materials such as wood or stone are easy to clean and resistant to moisture which is vital in high-traffic settings.

 

The Benefits of Vanity Units in Commercial Spaces


Enduring Luxury


Our vanity units are crafted from quality materials such as high-grade natural marble, stone, and sustainably sourced wood. These materials are renowned for their exceptional qualities including the ability to endure the demands of high-traffic commercial environments like five-star hotel suites, luxury spas, restrooms, and fine dining cloakrooms.

Marble, with its natural veining and cool, tactile quality, offers a sense of opulence. Each slab is unique, delivering individuality to every marble vanity unit, yet when sealed and treated properly, marble also offers incredible resilience. It resists staining, heat, and wear, and becomes more beautiful over time as it develops a soft patina of character.

Natural wood finishes, from oak to rich walnut, are also thoughtfully selected for their ability to balance design with strength. Marine-grade woods, in particular, are layered for stability—resisting warping and moisture damage while retaining the authentic grain and tone of natural timber.





Optimised Hygiene


In high-end commercial environments impeccable cleanliness reflects care, attention to detail, and professionalism. At Lusso, our vanity units are engineered to support visual elegance, and functional excellence, ensuring spaces remain effortlessly immaculate, even under constant use.

Wall-mounted vanity units offer a significant advantage in this regard. By floating above the floor, they eliminate hard-to-reach corners and exposed junctions where dust, water, and bacteria typically gather. This allows housekeeping teams to clean underneath the unit quickly and thoroughly, maintaining spotless flooring and seamless finishes.

Our vanity units often feature built-in basins crafted from our renowned Cortese® Stone. This not only enhances the visual impact but also eliminates grout lines where mould and grime can develop. These smooth, continuous surfaces can be wiped clean in seconds, without harsh scrubbing or abrasive products.





Brand Immersion


In today’s luxury hospitality and commercial environments, the guest experience extends far beyond primary spaces like lobbies, suites, or restaurants. Every corner of a property — including the bathroom — contributes to a cohesive brand narrative.

The design of a bathroom speaks volumes about the ethos of a space. A carefully selected vanity communicates your values instantly. Your choice of vanity should embody and reinforce the philosophy of your brand.

For example, a fluted wood vanity with brushed brass accents speaks to a sense of artisanal craftsmanship — ideal for boutique hotels or heritage-inspired interiors that celebrate texture and heritage.





Intelligent Use of Space


In luxury commercial design, space should always feel purposeful. A vanity unit is essential in achieving a balance of intelligent design and functionality.

Our collection consists of cloakroom vanity units and compact designs that are crafted to deliver maximum impact. These smaller pieces are thoughtfully proportioned to provide essential storage and surface space while maintaining the elegance and presence expected in luxury environments.

Cloakroom vanity units integrate discreet storage for hand towels, toiletries, or maintenance essentials — keeping surfaces clean and streamlined. This is especially crucial in hospitality or fine dining settings, where guest-facing restrooms must remain immaculate and well-stocked at all times.





Choosing The Right Type of Vanity For Your Commercial Space


Selecting the right vanity unit for your commercial space takes a lot of thought. Consider the user experience, available space, and desired atmosphere to find a unit that both serves and inspires.



Wall Hung Vanity Units


Floating elegantly above the floor, wall hung vanities offer a sense of airiness and modernity. These space-enhancing designs make cleaning effortless while showcasing a refined, architectural silhouette. Our range includes wood grain finishes, with optional integrated stone basins for a seamless look. Pair with oversized mirrors and ambient wall lighting to evoke spa-like serenity.





Freestanding Vanity Units


Anchored in both form and tradition, freestanding vanities bring a sense of presence and permanence to boutique hotels and restaurants. These units are ideal for interiors that call for a more grounded, tactile design. Choose rich walnut, oak, or natural marble materials, such as Carrara or Arabescato, to add texture to the space.





Cloakroom Vanity Units


Perfectly proportioned for smaller spaces, cloakroom vanity units offer solutions for compact environments. Despite their small size, our cloakroom options are crafted from premium materials, designed with soft-close drawers, and built-in sinks, proving that you don’t have to compromise on quality in small spaces.





Double Vanity Units


Double vanity units are designed with two basins and expansive countertop space; these pieces are ideal for shared environments that value efficiency and indulgence such as couples or large family bathrooms. Our double vanities are meticulously crafted from marble or wood and feature intricate detail such as natural veining and fluting woodwork.





Within commercial interiors, your space should mirror your brand values. Showcasing the same thoughtfulness, elegance, and attention to detail as the rest of your setting. Selecting the correct vanity unit creates an unforgettable experience for your guests and sets the tone of your aesthetic.
