We never saw this coming, but it seems that a new trend in bathroom design is with wooden sinks and finishes. Wood is a rather awkward material to find in a bathroom particularly because of the risk factors: water and moist. Some of the most visionary designers have taken a deep breath and introduced this much feared material in the bathroom with a very exquisite result. Will they become the new pioneers of bathroom furbishing? It is not highly unlikely. However, due to the fact that the wood has little resistance in the bathroom environment, some might certainly not have it as their first choice when designing theirs. Despite that fact, here you have some inspiring examples of a fortunate combination of stainless steel and wood for your bathroom. It looks beautiful and classic and gives your kitchen a touch of history if you add to this a sink vanity with legs or a mirror with wooden framing. Given the texture of this material, it would not be a long term investment but most certainly one full of hassle. For those daring enough to consider using wooden materials in the bathroom, it is very important to know that they should expect the need for early refinishing and reliable water proof materials.
