Vintage style homes are warm, inviting and, most of all, charming. They are spaces where weathered and distressed pieces won’t feel out of place, but instead are welcomed with open arms. Adding a vintage style sink to a modern space can help to create a real sense of timelessness and reference to decades past. On top of that, you can add classic patterned tiles, throwback colour schemes and vintage accessories to really finish the room off.
Create an Antique or Vintage Style Home

Check out our curated collection of vintage style bathroom vanities, mirrors, paint, lighting and everything in between! All items are interior designer approved products and designs that will be perfect for your antique style home.
How to create a Vintage style home:
- Repurpose older furniture pieces that are full of character (eg. a weathered dressing table could be repurposed as a vintage style bathroom vanity)
- Use copper and brass fixtures
- Opt for an all-white colour palette with some soft pastel accents
- Invest in a free-standing bath
- Hang an interesting antique chandelier
- Incorporate mid-century accents, such as a wood-framed mirror, timber flooring & antique cabinet handles
Traps to avoid:
- Steer clear of black tapware and accessories as they bring a more modern look to the space
- Avoid the use of modern, recessed lighting
- Stay away from tapware that has harsh edges - square edges leans into a more Modern Minimalist style

Vintage
Drawing inspiration from period homes, a vintage style bathroom offers a timeless space with touches of luxury throughout. Thankfully, a vintage style bathroom can now be achieved without having to scavenge through second-hand stores or exuberant vintage furniture stores - simply, continue to look through this collection.
Old style bathroom fixtures are elegant, classy and bring outstanding beauty to any space. For a vintage style bathroom, opt for antique style fixtures and fittings with detailed design, such as a claw foot freestanding bath and a detailed freestanding or console basin. Compliment these antique styles with classic, solid tiles or a unique wallpaper reminiscent of the times.
Retro bathroom ideas further bring this style to life with classic tapware inspired by English designs. Opt for chrome or brass finishes to continue with this classy style. Pairing this simple finish against unique and antique fixtures ensures your vintage bathroom remains timeless.
When in the kitchen, opt for a ceramic kitchen sink. These large, vintage style sinks are traditionally from the UK and are very popular among heritage home designs. Finish with classic chrome tapware by Fienza to create a luxury kitchen space that ties in well with your vintage style bathroom.
