Make a storage list before choosing a cupboard run

A long furniture run is most useful when its capacity matches what the bathroom actually needs to hold. In this Aberdeen project, wall-to-wall cupboards provide enclosed storage, with smaller angled shelves making use of an awkward corner.

Before choosing a similar arrangement, list everyday toiletries, spare supplies and items that need their own suitable storage. That gives a clearer brief than simply asking for as many cupboards as possible. Show the largest items on the cupboard drawing first, since they establish how useful each compartment can be. Consider which things belong behind doors and which genuinely need a nearby open surface. The aim is a furniture run with a purpose for each section, while retaining enough usable counter space for getting ready.
