Hougang Maisonette - Designing as we go along (Bathroom Vanity Cabinet)

The toilet layout for both toilets are very small. In area wise, it's quite comfortable, but we just couldn't fathom why did HDB put the WC so far away from the pipes that the leftover space for the sink becomes so tight when we add a glass partition for the shower area.

I mean, who doesn't want a shower glass partition? Keeps all the water in the actual wet area and keeps the sink and WC dry when you shower. Although a shower curtain might do the job but it's not the same.

But what i really want to say is, at the end of the day, Iron Lady Chef could only get a small sink for both master and common bath. And there's hardly any counter space left to put toothbrush and mug on the counter.  So we had to improvise the design a little - actually I like doing these sort of things! Designing and finding a solution is what we are here for!

She can always hide the toothbrush and mug within the mirror cabinet above but we think it's quite a chore to do this every morning and night. Plus, dampness in the cabinet from the toothbrush...hmm, not very hygienic. So we decided to do a vertical open shelving at the side where she can put all this bathroom utilities.

Now is just waiting for her approval.
If not there's also those mount-to-the-wall toothbrush holders too. But we are really not so keen on those.
