Walk-in Shower Ideas & Inspiration

Walk-in Shower Ideas & Inspiration

If you prefer to have just a shower in your bathroom, then choose to remove the bathtub altogether and instead fill the area with a walk-in shower. A tub sized shower can offer plenty of room, as well as a window to provide some natural light as well as a small shelf for your toiletries. If you have a larger shower in your bathroom this provides you with the option to install dual showerheads, such as the wall-mount, handheld, and rain-style showerheads in the space.

We’ve put together some useful shower renovation ideas for you to consider, these shower designs tackle the two ends of bathroom design. Small bathrooms where space is at a premium, our small shower ideas will guide you on how best to use this space At the other end of the scale, we have compiled some large shower room ideas. These are aimed at inspiring those of you who may find it difficult to know what to do with a lot of space.

Large Walk-in Shower Ideas

Use every inch of your remodelled walk-in shower to work hard in your favour, include some drawers under the shower bench for some extra storage. Consider fitting it out with wall-mount, handheld or rain-style showerheads. You can insert tiles on the bathroom floor, repeating the design on the shower wall and ceiling.

Revamped your bathroom layout, chose to replace the bathtub with an extra-spacious shower and steam room. With tall glass doors to keep water and steam contained inside while bringing light into the shower area. You can install a tiled niche that holds bath products, use a small stool tucks into a corner to offer a resting spot.

Walk-In Shower Ideas For Small Bathrooms

If you have a small bathroom with a standard layout then upgrade it to have a stunning walk-in shower. Build the shower with glass doors and no threshold to allow you easy access. Add some white tiles to cover half of the bathroom’s walls and continue into the shower area, add a strip of black tiles to add a high contrast design, this style of a crisp, cool colour scheme will give your bathroom an altogether airier look.

Adding a frameless shower door and glass enclosure help keep a small walk-in shower from feeling like a cramped space. Inside, add a simple white subway tile to contribute to the overall sense of airiness and added spaciousness. A small nook next to the shower is not big enough for a vanity unit, it may easily fit a small stool for perching.

Lighting A Shower Space

Ensure your walk-in shower receives plenty of natural light so you don’t have to rely on electrical lights to illuminate the area during the day. For example with a bathroom on the top floor of a home, consider adding a skylight to add some welcome natural light from above the shower. A small window also works well for brightening up a walk-in shower space. If privacy is a concern, then simply place the window higher up on the wall or even use frosted glass panes.

Shower Room Storage

Walk-in showers often don’t include a tub ledge to hold shampoo, soap, and loofah. Instead of leaving them on the floor, consider building a recessed wall shelf right into your walk-in shower. Adding a bathroom shelf outside the shower as well to hold towels and any other toiletries you need.

Small Details Make A Big Difference

Small details can make a walk-in shower a standout space. Adding two showerheads placed slightly higher and lower on the wall will accommodate people of different heights, a great addition if you have a young family. Using intricately planned mosaic tiles will create a visually stunning pattern along the walls, floor, and bench. Another tip to keep a space from looking too busy, use tiles in the same colour but different sizes, apply them to the floor and lower portion of the walls.
