Love it or Leave it: Back to Back Vanity

Pinned Image

I recently stumbled upon designer, Jeffrey Allan Marks’ Tumblr blog where I spotted this image of his master bathroom. You’ll notice that instead of having side by side vanities and sinks, JAM’s are back to back. I think this is a really clever use of space and it doesn’t hurt that the rest of the room is so beautifully designed. Would you ever opt for back to back vanities? Do you love this look or would you rather leave it?

I LOVE this! I don't think I've ever seen a vanity this large...it must be custom made?? What is the thing in the ceiling over the vanity...can't figure it out!!

Love it!!!

I absolutely love that concept. I've seen it in some public bathrooms in hotels and casinos such as the Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas and can't get enough of it!

Really cool idea! Sadly I don't think it's very practical for the ladies... where am I supposed to plug in my army of hair styling tools?

I love EVERYTHING JAM does!

I would love that... but think of how expensive that would be to bring the plumbing up from the floor?!!!

I have seen it and a good friend has this set up as well...if it works in the room as it appears to do here, then why not! I personally prefer a side by side traditional setup, but in some rooms this is a better arrangment.

Love!! Great way to insure that none of my husbands stuff touches mine!!!

I'm going way back, but it reminds me of Ali McBeal. I don't really like how it breaks up the room.

Genius space constraint solution. Thank you for posting about this. Your blog is always a great read!

Love it. They had an episode on MDD where they filmed Ross and Jeffrey in the midst of a spat.

Very cool! I just imagine it being a really fun in the mornings.

I absolutely love this idea! To respond to jane, what's on the ceiling are candles/lighting covered with a shade that had been cut off in the photo... At least, that's what I think :)
