  1. 0:00What's the difference between a standard
  2. 0:02bathroom remodel and a high-end designer
  3. 0:05one? You may be thinking that I'm going
  4. 0:07to say something along the lines of
  5. 0:09fancy imported tile, freestanding
  6. 0:12bathtub, or a wallhung toilet. And while
  7. 0:16all those elements are really nice, my
  8. 0:18answer is actually behind the spatial
  9. 0:21plan, the functionality, the blueprints,
  10. 0:25the detail that went into planning. In
  11. 0:272025, designers are relying on five
  12. 0:30different bathroom vanity types. And
  13. 0:33these vanity types go beyond just the
  14. 0:36interior design trends. They're actually
  15. 0:38built to solve problems. They're made to
  16. 0:41be functional while also giving the
  17. 0:44clients that luxury bathroom feeling. So
  18. 0:47stay along in this video to see the five
  19. 0:50different vanity types. get to know how
  20. 0:52to build these vanities, how to
  21. 0:54integrate them in your own interior
  22. 0:56design projects. You'll see all the
  23. 0:58details of all of these different vanity
  24. 1:00sets, and you'll get to know how to draw
  25. 1:04these vanities for a build ready
  26. 1:07document set. So, let's get started.
  27. 1:11Hi everyone, my name is Dianiela,
  28. 1:14interior designer. I actually started my
  29. 1:16career off in kitchen and bath design,
  30. 1:20specifically custom bill work design.
  31. 1:22So, I know a thing or two about a good
  32. 1:25vanity design. And I've also seen some
  33. 1:28disastrous vanities design choices gone
  34. 1:31wrong. And specifically in a bathroom,
  35. 1:34you need to pay attention to the vanity.
  36. 1:37There's a lot of standard items in a
  37. 1:39bathroom, but really the most custom
  38. 1:42elements in a bathroom is the vanity.
  39. 1:45So, the more customization,
  40. 1:47the more choices and therefore the more
  41. 1:50opportunities there are to make some
  42. 1:53critical mistakes. But I don't like to
  43. 1:56look at it that way. There's also
  44. 1:58opportunity to make these vanities the
  45. 2:00most functional and beautiful vanities
  46. 2:03due to customization. So, in today's
  47. 2:05video, I'm going to be walking you
  48. 2:07through the five vanity types that I
  49. 2:09mentioned, and we're going to be looking
  50. 2:12at what exactly is it, why this vanity
  51. 2:15works, a pro design tip, and exactly
  52. 2:17what to include in your drawings to make
  53. 2:19it buildable. Today, I'm going to be
  54. 2:21using Rayon Design. And if you didn't
  55. 2:24know, Rayon Design is the fastest way to
  56. 2:27create beautiful presentations and

  59. 2:36free to download the free bathroom
  60. 2:38vanity templates in the description
  61. 2:40below and follow along with me. Let's
  62. 2:43get started with bathroom number one.
  63. 2:45So, let's talk about the first vanity
  64. 2:47here. And this is the floating clearance
  65. 2:49vanity. And this is actually a very,
  66. 2:52very popular vanity. You've probably
  67. 2:55already seen it done a few different
  68. 2:57times. And we'll talk about it in terms
  69. 3:00of a very small bathroom. Nowadays,
  70. 3:03people are living in small spaces.
  71. 3:05They're learning to live with it, and
  72. 3:07they're learning to work around it. A
  73. 3:10floating vanity can actually help, and
  74. 3:12it can obviously leave the floor visible
  75. 3:15underneath, giving the illusion of a
  76. 3:17lighter space, a cleaner space. It
  77. 3:20actually is easier for cleaning and it
  78. 3:22also gives a very contemporary modern
  79. 3:24look. So, let's take a look at our floor
  80. 3:28plan here. And there's even a mood
  81. 3:30board. So, you can see here obviously
  82. 3:32the top view of our vanity. And we can
  83. 3:35scroll over here and we see the design
  84. 3:38intent for this bathroom which green
  85. 3:40very on trend right now. Very beautiful.
  86. 3:43So, let's scroll over to this section.
  87. 3:46And this is where you can actually see
  88. 3:48the design suggestions for this vanity.
  89. 3:51So, you can see that there's going to be
  90. 3:54two sinks. And each individual is going
  91. 3:58to have two different drawers. It looks
  92. 4:00like as if the mill work is designed to
  93. 4:02have no hardware, but more of a little
  94. 4:05nook where your fingers can go in and
  95. 4:08pull out the drawer, which you know,
  96. 4:10once again, very contemporary, very
  97. 4:13common. Now, we have some vessel sinks,
  98. 4:16which is a beautiful design choice. So,
  99. 4:19let's move on to section BB where you
  100. 4:23can see the other side of the bathroom.
  101. 4:25So here we have that freestanding tub
  102. 4:28that I was talking about earlier. Looks
  103. 4:30like we have a heated towel rack. We
  104. 4:32have some additional storage. So as you
  105. 4:35can see here, you get a beautiful idea
  106. 4:37of how this bathroom is coming together.
  107. 4:41Let's move on to page number three. And
  108. 4:44here is where we can really see what
  109. 4:46this vanity is going to look like with
  110. 4:48this beautiful render. And yeah, it's
  111. 4:51very Scandinavian, very on trend. And
  112. 4:55what we see here in the top view, we see
  113. 4:58a little bit more detail than we would
  114. 5:00see on the initial floor plan. So we
  115. 5:04have our dimensions here.
  116. 5:07As you can see, we have some more
  117. 5:09detailed views of how the sink will be,
  118. 5:12which it will be a single hole. And we
  119. 5:15even get an illustration of the
  120. 5:17countertop. Let's zoom in over here on
  121. 5:21this elevation. And once again, we're
  122. 5:24seeing the dimensions.
  123. 5:26We're seeing the clearances and we're
  124. 5:30seeing exactly how this will fit on the
  125. 5:34wall. And let's go into the section.
  126. 5:38And a section is really like if you
  127. 5:42chopped through something. So in this
  128. 5:45case, we've sort of chopped through this
  129. 5:47vanity and now we can see all of the
  130. 5:51detail. So, we actually see some very
  131. 5:53important details such as how this
  132. 5:56vanity is going to be installed, which
  133. 5:59typically they're installed with wall
  134. 6:01mounting brackets.
  135. 6:03We can see the drawer here and that
  136. 6:06little nook that I was talking about in
  137. 6:09order to open the drawer. And we see
  138. 6:13something really cool here. We see that
  139. 6:15there's builtin LED lights underneath
  140. 6:19the cabinet here. And that's a really
  141. 6:22nice detail to add with a floating
  142. 6:24vanity because it really does give that
  143. 6:27beautiful luxurious feel. It's amazing
  144. 6:30for, you know, the middle of the night.
  145. 6:32You don't want to turn on all your
  146. 6:34lights and disrupt your sleep too much.
  147. 6:36It acts as if it's a nightlight, but
  148. 6:39obviously a lot more high-end and
  149. 6:42luxurious. So, that's a beautiful
  150. 6:44detail. And you see once again the
  151. 6:47different finishes. We have marble storm
  152. 6:50countertop and we have our vessel sink
  153. 6:54also could be called a countertop basin.
  154. 6:57And we have all of the details here. If
  155. 7:00we want an even more indepth look, we
  156. 7:04can take a look here and you see all of
  157. 7:07the dimensions for each piece of mill
  158. 7:12work. So whether this is wood, there's
  159. 7:14melamines, there's MDFs, you will see
  160. 7:18the little details that go into it and
  161. 7:22this is obviously very very critical for
  162. 7:25the mill workshop. So my hot designer
  163. 7:28tip here was to add under cabinet
  164. 7:30lighting that really separates a typical
  165. 7:32floating vanity to a custom designer
  166. 7:35one. And I'm actually going to show you
  167. 7:37how you can draw this yourself. So, I've
  168. 7:40zoomed in here and I've removed the
  169. 7:42light that was previously there. And I
  170. 7:45actually want to talk about a few things
  171. 7:47on this section drawing before we get to
  172. 7:50drawing light. So, as you can see here,
  173. 7:53there's actually a support blocks.
  174. 7:56So, we noted of the wall mounting
  175. 7:59brackets, but there's also these two
  176. 8:02support blocks which are very standard
  177. 8:05and necessary to add in your floating
  178. 8:09vanities. This is actually making it
  179. 8:12buildable and not just sort of pie in
  180. 8:15the sky, draw whatever you want. So,
  181. 8:18it's very important to note this. And
  182. 8:20it's also important to note that you
  183. 8:24can't just plop a label floating vanity.
  184. 8:28We have to make it realistic. So you
  185. 8:30have to be intentional with the sizing
  186. 8:33of everything. And also you have to be
  187. 8:36considerate of the counter height. So
  188. 8:39typically it is 34 to 36 in from floor
  189. 8:44to counter. 36 in is the same as kitchen
  190. 8:48height. So, typically it's the same or a
  191. 8:51little lower. So, let's get back into
  192. 8:53drawing the lights. So, let's zoom in
  193. 8:55here and select this bottom piece of
  194. 8:58MDF. I would assume we're going to drag
  195. 9:00it away from the wall and we're going to
  196. 9:03create room for the lights. Very easy.
  197. 9:05You just click and you can drag. So,
  198. 9:09let's go into our little tool kit and
  199. 9:11we're going to open up shapes. Here we
  200. 9:13can open up rectangle and we can select
  201. 9:16where we want this rectangle to start.
  202. 9:18So we can click in this corner and we
  203. 9:21can line it up nicely. As you can see
  204. 9:23it's lined up and we can click out. Now
  205. 9:26I actually want to fill this with a
  206. 9:29yellow color to signify a light. So I'm
  207. 9:32going to add a fill and I'm going to
  208. 9:34press yellow. And there we go. But we
  209. 9:37also want to add a leader. We don't want
  210. 9:40to just leave this on this drawing
  211. 9:42unmarked. So to mark this, we're going
  212. 9:44to press here leader and we're going to
  213. 9:47click where we want it to start and
  214. 9:49where we want it to end. And you can
  215. 9:51edit this later so it's really no fuss.
  216. 9:55And then we can type in what we want to
  217. 9:57type in. I've copied and paste this
  218. 10:00little notes. So built-in LED light see
  219. 10:03details in the next sheet. And FYI, this
  220. 10:06should be found in your electrical
  221. 10:08drawings as well. So let's just press
  222. 10:11done. And as you can see, we need to
  223. 10:14actually match this font and style to
  224. 10:17what we already have going on. So, we
  225. 10:19can easily click here on the leader. We
  226. 10:22can click this little droplet on Pix
  227. 10:25styles and we can match it to the other
  228. 10:29fonts in the drawing. And we can further
  229. 10:31edit it here. And as you can see, we can
  230. 10:35make it fit where we want it to. So,
  231. 10:38let's say I'm happy with that. We just
  232. 10:40click else and we're done. All right,
  233. 10:43let's get into the second vanity we're
  234. 10:45going to be looking at and that is the
  235. 10:47maximized corner vanity. So, think about
  236. 10:50awkward spaces, small bathrooms. Once
  237. 10:53again, in the real world of interior
  238. 10:56design, there's going to be a lot of
  239. 10:58less than ideal floor plans that you'll
  240. 11:00have to work with and you'll have to
  241. 11:02design around. you still need something
  242. 11:05that gives storage that's functional and
  243. 11:08that looks good. So, let's zoom in on
  244. 11:12our floor plan here and we can see our
  245. 11:15vanity in question. So, it's a pretty
  246. 11:18cool bathroom, but yeah, there wasn't
  247. 11:21really much options for where the vanity
  248. 11:24would go. As you see, they prioritized
  249. 11:26the beautiful jacuzzi tub and shower. So
  250. 11:30really, this is a wet room. And so we
  251. 11:34kind of got stuck with this corner
  252. 11:35vanity, but it's okay because, as you'll
  253. 11:38see, we've really made the most out of
  254. 11:40this vanity. So, let's go into our
  255. 11:43elevations here. And we're getting a
  256. 11:45peek into this vanity mill work. We can
  257. 11:48see where the mirror is going to go. We
  258. 11:51can see that there's some clever storage
  259. 11:53for some hand towels. And now, let's
  260. 11:56take an even closer look. So, we're
  261. 11:58going to scroll on over to page three,
  262. 12:00and let's take a look at this vanity.
  263. 12:03And let's look at the design. And I
  264. 12:05think it's cool overall. I like the fact
  265. 12:08that it has open storage. I like the
  266. 12:10fact that it's sleek and it's utilizing
  267. 12:13the corner. However, someone can just
  268. 12:17knock themselves on this corner. I mean,
  269. 12:20I don't know. I'm pretty clumsy and I'm
  270. 12:22always hitting my foot on corners and,
  271. 12:25you know, scraping myself. So, it might
  272. 12:28just be me, but when we design, we're
  273. 12:32designing for people and we're designing
  274. 12:34for functionality and also comfort. So,
  275. 12:38it probably make more sense for these
  276. 12:42areas to be curved. You would still gain
  277. 12:46the functionality of storage, but you're
  278. 12:48eliminating this harsh corner where once
  279. 12:51again, people can actually hurt
  280. 12:53themselves. So, I'm going to show you
  281. 12:55how we can round out these corners. The
  282. 12:59first step here is to select polyline
  283. 13:03and we're going to trace around this
  284. 13:05vanity. And if we want to have a little
  285. 13:07bit of thicker line, we can do that over
  286. 13:09here. So, we're going to connect these
  287. 13:12two lines and we're going to hit escape.
  288. 13:14Then, we're going to hit polyline again
  289. 13:16and connect the corners to themselves.
  290. 13:20So, I'm going to hit escape, polyline
  291. 13:22again.
  292. 13:24and I'm going to hit escape.
  293. 13:27Now, with this selected, I'm going to go
  294. 13:29in this tool kit and I'm going to press
  295. 13:32fill it. And I'm going to select these
  296. 13:35two segment lines. And here it's asking
  297. 13:38for the radius. So, I'm going to put 10.
  298. 13:40Done. Let's do the same on this side.
  299. 13:45Done. Cool. I'm going to press line and
  300. 13:48I'm going to connect this together.
  301. 13:51And now I'm going to select all of these
  302. 13:53lines. So I'm going to hold down shift
  303. 13:56and I'm going to highlight everything in
  304. 13:58blue. And now I'm going to join this. So
  305. 14:02I'm going to go on this toolkit and
  306. 14:04press join. While this is connected, I'm
  307. 14:08going to go into my little pick styles
  308. 14:10and I'm going to fill in this area. And
  309. 14:14now I'm going to very carefully delete
  310. 14:18these corners. So, delete, delete. We're
  311. 14:23going to press done. We're going to go
  312. 14:25into layers and we're going to make sure
  313. 14:27that areas is turned on. So, now that
  314. 14:30we've turned our vanity into one with
  315. 14:32rounded corners, let's take a look at
  316. 14:34the rest of this page. So, it includes
  317. 14:38an elevation where you can see what's
  318. 14:41intended for the storage. You can see
  319. 14:44the mirror once again, the detail with
  320. 14:46the sink and faucet. And here in this
  321. 14:49section, you can see something cool. You
  322. 14:52can see that this is going to be
  323. 14:54intended for laundry storage, which is
  324. 14:57really nice, really sleek. And over
  325. 14:59here, we have a mood board. So, we can
  326. 15:02see the beautiful jacuzzi tub. We can
  327. 15:05have a picture of how the vanity is
  328. 15:07going to look. Of course, this was
  329. 15:08before we tailored it, but we still get
  330. 15:11the idea. So, overall, I would say that
  331. 15:15this is a very clever vanity. And I want
  332. 15:18to give you a little bit of a blueprint
  333. 15:21tip before we move on. You can never
  334. 15:24assume that walls are straight. You can
  335. 15:26never assume that, you know, a corner is
  336. 15:29a perfect right angle. Obviously, in
  337. 15:33your drawing, typically you see
  338. 15:34everything straight and perfect. But in
  339. 15:37the real life of interior design, it's
  340. 15:39never that simple. So, you need to go on
  341. 15:42site or your trade person needs to go on
  342. 15:45site and verify the actual angle and
  343. 15:48double check your walls before you go
  344. 15:51ahead with custom nail work. We're
  345. 15:53moving on to the third vanity type. And
  346. 15:56that vanity type is statement piece
  347. 15:59vanity. And in this case, what makes it
  348. 16:01a statement is the vessel sink. And I've
  349. 16:04actually mentioned the vessel sink in
  350. 16:07this document package previously. So
  351. 16:10vessel sinks are one that sit on top of
  352. 16:14the counter and they come in all shapes
  353. 16:17and sizes and like I said I used to be
  354. 16:21in custom mill work design so I'm very
  355. 16:23familiar with different plumbing brands
  356. 16:25and these vessel sinks can be
  357. 16:28extraordinary. There are some that are
  358. 16:29hand painted. They're, you know, funky
  359. 16:32shapes. There's different colors,
  360. 16:34different formats. It's just it's it's a
  361. 16:38world of its own and it's an absolutely
  362. 16:40amazing way to make a vanity really
  363. 16:42stand out. The important thing to know
  364. 16:45with these types of sinks is that you
  365. 16:47have to be very considerate with the
  366. 16:49type of faucet that goes with the sink.
  367. 16:52So, actually, you can do wall-mounted
  368. 16:55faucets, which are really cool. You just
  369. 16:57have to make sure that you're installing
  370. 16:59them at the proper height. And you can
  371. 17:01do taller faucets for these vessel
  372. 17:05sinks. So you can't put a typical
  373. 17:08faucet, otherwise you'll get splashing
  374. 17:11and it just won't be comfortable for the
  375. 17:13person to wash their hands. So the moral
  376. 17:16of the story here is make sure that
  377. 17:20everything is working in harmony. Your
  378. 17:22sink, your faucet, and your mill work.
  379. 17:24So let's take a look further into this
  380. 17:28document. So, this bathroom is actually
  381. 17:31really cool. You have a separate toilet
  382. 17:33room, which I highly recommend if you
  383. 17:35have the space. Beautiful shower room,
  384. 17:38freestanding tub, which there's some
  385. 17:40beautiful freestanding tubs as well. And
  386. 17:43we have our mood board. And I would say
  387. 17:45this statement vanity actually makes a
  388. 17:47statement as well due to the color. I
  389. 17:50mean, people tend to shy away from
  390. 17:52color, but I find that people are very
  391. 17:55comfortable with the color blue. So, in
  392. 17:57my interior design work, I've done a lot
  393. 17:59of blue vanities and kitchens. Um, I
  394. 18:03would love to spice it up with some
  395. 18:05burgundy's and some other jewel tones,
  396. 18:07but people gravitate towards blue. So,
  397. 18:10let's take a look at some of the
  398. 18:12elevations. Now, once again, stunning
  399. 18:15freestanding tub here. You can see
  400. 18:18there's a wall-mounted tub faucet. So,
  401. 18:21that's pretty cool. Um, I think, you
  402. 18:24know, they're kind of a little bit more
  403. 18:27modern than other freestanding tub
  404. 18:30fillers, but to each their own. We have
  405. 18:33some beautiful tile shown here, which is
  406. 18:36very clever because you will get some,
  407. 18:38you know, water splashing when someone's
  408. 18:40taking a bath. We have details on the
  409. 18:43flooring. You can see into the shower
  410. 18:46now. And we can see there's this
  411. 18:48beautiful ledge where you can put soaps
  412. 18:51and decor. And let's take a look at the
  413. 18:54vanity. Okay, how about we take a look
  414. 18:57at this elevation first. So you do see
  415. 19:00beautiful, lovely vessel sinks. And
  416. 19:03there we have it. We have the faucets
  417. 19:04that I was referencing, the wall mounted
  418. 19:07faucets, which I love. They are a little
  419. 19:10bit more work in a sense of you need to
  420. 19:13specify the roughen behind the wall
  421. 19:15beforehand. So keep that in mind. You
  422. 19:18can't just slap this in last minute.
  423. 19:20It's an more of an intentional
  424. 19:22investment into the design. But you do
  425. 19:25have some beautiful shelving here for
  426. 19:28some, you know, very luxurious towels
  427. 19:31or, you know, whatever it may be. If we
  428. 19:34look into the section here, we can see
  429. 19:38details within the mill work as we
  430. 19:41discussed before. Yeah. So, we see open
  431. 19:44storage. This one is not a floating
  432. 19:46vanity. It's just a typical vanity that
  433. 19:49sits on the floor. And there's nothing
  434. 19:51wrong with that. That has a sort of
  435. 19:53elegance and it's a little bit more
  436. 19:54traditional, which some people do
  437. 19:56gravitate towards. And we see the plan
  438. 19:59view here. all detailed, dimensioned,
  439. 20:02gorgeous. And let's look at our mood
  440. 20:04board. So, we actually have a specific
  441. 20:07color picked out here. So, this one,
  442. 20:09it's very lovely, actually. Um, and we
  443. 20:12have some chrome. Chrome is very in. You
  444. 20:16can see the specified items here. So,
  445. 20:18yeah, this is it's looking pretty good.
  446. 20:21It's looking pretty good. And as usual,
  447. 20:24we also have details here for the mill
  448. 20:27worker. So, if you need to get down to
  449. 20:29the nitty-gritty, here we have it. Can
  450. 20:31zoom in here and we can see how thick
  451. 20:34the countertop is. We can see the door.
  452. 20:38We can see all of the framing detail.
  453. 20:41So, very important to have. So, before
  454. 20:44we move on, I actually want to show you
  455. 20:47how you can add dimensions to your
  456. 20:49drawing in rayon. And blueprint tip
  457. 20:52here. It's very important to show the
  458. 20:54height of the counter, the thickness of
  459. 20:57the counter, the spout clearance,
  460. 21:00dimensions for each detail. You have to
  461. 21:03ensure functionality and show all the
  462. 21:05clearances. So let's actually show you
  463. 21:08how you can add those dimensions. So
  464. 21:11let's zoom in here and let's say we want
  465. 21:13to show the overall counter height. We
  466. 21:17just click dimension. We click our
  467. 21:19starting points and we can click our
  468. 21:22ending point. And I can zoom in on here
  469. 21:25to be very exact. And we can drag. And
  470. 21:28I'm just going to drag this here for
  471. 21:29now. And we may want to edit this
  472. 21:32dimension style. So I can quickly edit
  473. 21:36it by copying the other styles. And
  474. 21:39maybe I even want to change this unit
  475. 21:42type. So maybe you're using metric,
  476. 21:44maybe imperial, I don't know. Let's
  477. 21:46change it. So while it's selected we can
  478. 21:49click edit and we see model canvas comes
  479. 21:52up and we can change it to whatever we
  480. 21:56want. So maybe I want millimeters, maybe
  481. 21:58I want inches, feet in inches, whatever
  482. 22:02your drawing requires, you can change it
  483. 22:05very easily. So now we're moving on to
  484. 22:08the fourth vanity we'll be talking about
  485. 22:10and that is the open concept vanity. So,
  486. 22:14if you're after that industrial spa
  487. 22:16look, if you're after something that's
  488. 22:19open and airy and has a lot of character
  489. 22:21and charm, the console vanity might be
  490. 22:24perfect for your project. So, this
  491. 22:27vanity is more like a piece of
  492. 22:29furniture. It has open shelving, the
  493. 22:33legs, it has exposed plumbing, and
  494. 22:36there's a lot of character that can be
  495. 22:38brought in. So, let's take a look at the
  496. 22:41floor plan. And immediately we can see
  497. 22:44the location of this vanity. And this
  498. 22:47bathroom doesn't have a tub, but you
  499. 22:49know, not every bathroom has a tub. It's
  500. 22:51still a very functional, wellthoughtout
  501. 22:53bathroom with the vanity being the focal
  502. 22:56point. And we can see here, it's sort of
  503. 22:58once again that industrial spa. And I
  504. 23:02think it's really fun to take advantage
  505. 23:05of elements in design that aren't
  506. 23:08necessarily typically highlights. So, I
  507. 23:11love industrial design because it makes
  508. 23:13duct work, you know, beautiful. It makes
  509. 23:16exposed plumbing beautiful. And there's
  510. 23:19a little bit more rawness and realness.
  511. 23:22So, let's take a look at some
  512. 23:25elevations. And yeah, you can see here
  513. 23:29we have the wall-mounted faucets again,
  514. 23:32which once again, they bode well with
  515. 23:34industrial look. We have the exposed
  516. 23:38plumbing. We have that open shelf. And
  517. 23:41it's really cool because nowadays you
  518. 23:45can get different covers that go over
  519. 23:48this exposed plumbing if you like. They
  520. 23:50can come in all different types of
  521. 23:52finishes and colors. Um the plumbing
  522. 23:55itself can come in all different types
  523. 23:57of finishes and colors. The furniture
  524. 23:59legs, the hardware, everything can come
  525. 24:02in different finishes. So you have an
  526. 24:05opportunity to mix metals and mix
  527. 24:07finishes. Some people like more matchy
  528. 24:10matchy, some people like sort of a mix
  529. 24:13and match eclectic look. So, you really
  530. 24:16can go crazy here if you'd like. Let's
  531. 24:18move on. So, yeah, here we're seeing
  532. 24:21that exposed plumbing and we'll take an
  533. 24:24even deeper dive in the section here.
  534. 24:29So, blueprint tip, you want to make sure
  535. 24:32that everything is very clearly marked.
  536. 24:35So, the leg positions, the clearances,
  537. 24:39you know, how much space you're going to
  538. 24:41have so you can plan for what you're
  539. 24:44going to be storing. And you want to
  540. 24:46make sure that all of the finishes are
  541. 24:49marked. So, I just told you that you
  542. 24:50could do all these different finishes.
  543. 24:52So, you actually want to make sure that
  544. 24:53you're specifying that properly.
  545. 24:56So, it's very important to detail every
  546. 24:59single thing on your drawing. You don't
  547. 25:00want people to assume it. So, moving
  548. 25:03along on this page, we can see that we
  549. 25:06have a stunning, very realistic render
  550. 25:09and we have further details here on this
  551. 25:13elevation. So, as you can see, there's
  552. 25:16many different styles. If you click on a
  553. 25:19surface, you can see what style it's
  554. 25:22under, which is obviously very helpful.
  555. 25:25And you can change these styles very
  556. 25:28easily. So, let's do that with this
  557. 25:30counter here. So once it's selected, we
  558. 25:33can go here and we can change the style
  559. 25:36to whatever we'd like. So, you know,
  560. 25:40maybe we just want to change it to
  561. 25:41yellow. Probably not, but you could do
  562. 25:44that. Let's change it to this gray,
  563. 25:48which is more of a black. Let's say we
  564. 25:51want to edit this style, and we want
  565. 25:54everything under this style to change.
  566. 25:57So while this is selected, we go to edit
  567. 26:00style. And maybe once again, this is a
  568. 26:03little too charcoal. Maybe we want it to
  569. 26:06read as more of a lighter gray. So you
  570. 26:08can see here I have that option to edit
  571. 26:10fill. I also have different options to
  572. 26:13make it a texture, a hatch. I can even
  573. 26:16import an image. But let's say to make
  574. 26:18it simple, I just want it to be a little
  575. 26:20bit of a lighter gray than it was. So
  576. 26:23let's go back and I've changed it here.
  577. 26:26I can even change the stroke. Let's see
  578. 26:28how that looks. H maybe a little
  579. 26:30thinner. So, I've given it a stroke. And
  580. 26:33now I've actually changed this style in
  581. 26:36totality. So, everything in my drawing
  582. 26:40that has this style will change to
  583. 26:42reflect the new properties. All right.
  584. 26:45So, we made it to the fifth and final
  585. 26:48vanity that I'll be talking about in
  586. 26:50this tutorial, and it's the spacious
  587. 26:52vanity. So, think of large bathrooms,
  588. 26:56think primary on suite. It's a
  589. 26:59freestanding vanity that mimics
  590. 27:01furniture. It almost mimics a dresser.
  591. 27:05And for 2025, we're really seeing this
  592. 27:08becoming a huge trend. So, think walnut
  593. 27:10vanities, fluted fronts, greens, blues.
  594. 27:15Let's take a look at this bathroom
  595. 27:17design. So, you can see here, yes, it's
  596. 27:20spacious. It takes up about half the
  597. 27:23bathroom and I'm not mad at that. We can
  598. 27:27see here this stunning mood board and a
  599. 27:31beautiful inspiration photo which I'll
  600. 27:33be showing you how you can actually very
  601. 27:35easily copy and paste a photo from
  602. 27:38Pinterest into Rayon. But let's take a
  603. 27:41look at these elevations first. So you
  604. 27:44can see here, yes, we have some open
  605. 27:47drawers and we have some closed drawers.
  606. 27:51So let's take a look at these sections
  607. 27:54here. And while we're taking a look
  608. 27:56here, I want to give you a bit of a
  609. 27:59blueprint tip, and that is to leave
  610. 28:02clearances from the walls and toilets.
  611. 28:05So you want at least 4 in. And this is
  612. 28:09going to be great for cleaning. And we
  613. 28:12also want to ensure that we are using
  614. 28:15our elevation drawings to show drawer
  615. 28:18and door layouts. So we're going to
  616. 28:21actually be taking a zoom here and take
  617. 28:25a look at the labels. So we have open
  618. 28:29shelf, we have our notes on the
  619. 28:32integrated handle and once again we do
  620. 28:36have installation notes which is very
  621. 28:38helpful to know. So earlier I mentioned
  622. 28:41that you can simply copy and paste
  623. 28:44photos from Pinterest or Google straight
  624. 28:47into Rayon. So this means that Rayon is
  625. 28:50sort of your one-stop shop and you can
  626. 28:52create beautiful stunning mood boards in
  627. 28:55one software. So I'm actually going to
  628. 28:57show you how we can do that. So here I
  629. 29:00am in Pinterest in my Pinterest and
  630. 29:04let's type in bathroom. Here we have
  631. 29:07some stunning vessel sinks. like I was
  632. 29:09telling you about. Let's see what I want
  633. 29:12to pop in. Let's say I want to pop in
  634. 29:14this photo once again. Very arbitrary.
  635. 29:18Let's select copy image. And now I'm
  636. 29:22going to hop back into Rayon and we're
  637. 29:24going to paste it. So, we're back in
  638. 29:26Rayon. Let's paste my little Pinterest
  639. 29:28find here. And there we have it.
  640. 29:31Amazing. I'm going to delete this one.
  641. 29:33And I'm going to replace it with this
  642. 29:36photo. And I can obviously scale it. And
  643. 29:39there we have it. That was super super
  644. 29:42easy. So there you have it. You now have
  645. 29:44a blueprint for five vanity types that
  646. 29:47designers such as myself utilize to
  647. 29:50maximize bathroom space. Let's run it
  648. 29:53back one more time. So we took a look at
  649. 29:56the floating clearance vanity, which is
  650. 29:58perfect for small spaces. We took a look
  651. 30:01at the maximized corner vanity, which is
  652. 30:04made for tricky spaces.
  653. 30:07We looked at the statement piece vanity
  654. 30:09which is perfect for making a bold
  655. 30:12statement. We looked at the open concept
  656. 30:14vanity which is perfect for light and
  657. 30:17airy spaces. And we looked at the
  658. 30:19spacious freestanding vanity when you
  659. 30:22need a lot of storage. So each vanity is
  660. 30:26solves a realworld problem. And your
  661. 30:29blueprint is what turns the idea into a
  662. 30:32buildable plan. a buildable vanity that
  663. 30:35a mill worker can actually create. Make
