We want to remodel the master bath and add a new vanity with double sinks. Anyone know if there's a standard counter depth from the wall to the edge (in front of the sink)? It seems like there is a standard around 22" but I don't know if that varies with the type of sink. (???) Also, any ideal spacing between the sinks?

Thanks guys!:)

Standard vanity cabinet depth is 21" deep. A 22" deep countertop will give you a 1" overhang in front. Double sinks typically requires a minimum of two 30" wide vanity cabinets. Bowls are centered in each vanity. You can use two 30" wide vanities and a stack of 12" drawers between and center bowls over the two vanities. If countertop will not be abutting a wall, calculate a 1/2" overhang on each end of the counter.
