Customer Showcase: Fairfax, VA Modern Home with Floating Vanities

Modern living room with sleek gray stone fireplace, wall-mounted TV, white armchairs, neutral sofa, round coffee tables, and large black-frame windows for natural light.

Introduction

In Fairfax, VA, a newly completed Sotheby’s Realty project exemplifies how floating vanities elevate the design of modern luxury homes. This contemporary residence showcases clean architectural lines, expansive windows, and curated interiors. To complement the style, the homeowners selected a range of O&N floating vanities that blend form and function seamlessly.

1. The Challenge

For a residence of this caliber, the bathrooms needed to strike a balance between sophistication and practicality. Each space required vanities that could maximize storage, maintain a minimal footprint, and enhance the flow of natural light. The design goal was simple: integrate vanities that elevate the bathroom while echoing the clean modern aesthetic carried throughout the home.

2. The Solution

Working with the design team, the homeowners incorporated several O&N models:

  • Andorra Floating Vanity — Perfect for its minimalist solid wood design, complete with organizer features ideal for secondary bathrooms.
  • Merce Floating Vanity — Chosen in a double-sink configuration for the primary suite, this vanity offers both storage and elegance with a Canyon Oak finish.
  • Cela Floating Vanity — A sleek addition to guest bathrooms, appreciated for its refined details and versatile finish.
  • Maslow Floating Vanity — In Weathered Gray Oak, this statement piece anchors a large bathroom with bold character and generous counter space.

Each vanity was selected not only for its functionality but also for its ability to echo the textures and tones present in the rest of the home—from walnut wood accents in the living spaces to clean white walls and expansive glass.

4. Interior Designer’s Perspective

Floating vanities are more than a trend—they transform how bathrooms feel and function. By opening the floor visually, they make spaces appear larger and more refined. In this project, each vanity was matched intentionally to the bathroom’s size and purpose: larger double-sink models for family use, streamlined single vanities for guest baths, and bold statement vanities for luxury appeal.

For homeowners, this approach ensures each bathroom is not only beautiful but also functional for everyday living.
