Just like that special watch or necklace makes an outfit, the hardware you choose for the bathroom is the jewelry that enhances that space. Because the bathroom features a substantial amount of hardware relative to the size of the room, choosing the right option can make a big visual impact.
Hardware in bathrooms includes knobs and pulls on the vanity, but extends to other accessories as well. This includes towel racks for bathing and hand towels, toilet paper holders, soap dispensers and shower curtain rods. When planning hardware details, don’t forget to add in light switch covers, wall plates and vent covers to create a cohesive, professionally designed look.
