remodeling a very old and small bathroom.
the depth from the wall to the door frame is only 13"... but once i clear this distance the cabinet/sink can bubble out a few more inches as it tracks to right away from the door.
i need to find a sink/cabinet (vanity) combination that will fit this depth.. i'd like the sink to be about 30-32" wide as well. the sink does NOT have to be in the center of the cabinet, i would like it right justified somewhat, so that the left hand side of the cabinet gives me some space to put items (cans/soap/etc) on to the ledge.
does anyone know of a cabinet/sink combo that would work

I was doing a search for handicapped sinks the other day, and noticed some very small wall hung sinks, but cabinets could be hard to find. You might be able to adapt a kitchen cabinet, or make a cabinet.

I would have a cabinet base built to my specifications, and then have a cultured marble countertop with molded in sink built to fit the area. That way you can have your door swing, storage area and sink positioned the way you want it.

You can also position vanity base away from door to desired position and have custom counter curve into the 13" space. The open space beneath counter would be a handy place for the trash can. Or, a 12" deep wall shelf unit can be built up in that area for towel storage. In addition to concerns about 13" depth, you will need to take into consideration the length of available space and whether or not you will have to move plumbing. For manufactured vanity and custom top, stop by a kitchen/bath designer shop that does computer design and can show you how it will look on the computer.

i just might have to take a base cabinet and modify it
