No matter whether you are completely building or redesigning a new bathroom the addition of a walk in shower can add a lot of function and extra use to the bathroom. Depending on your requirements there are several different designs that you may like to consider. Here are some suggestions to think about.

If you like privacy and consider a shower to be a private time then an enclosed walk in shower will probably be the most suitable. They allow a lot of room to move about in but also afford privacy. They are often constructed by tiling solid walls.

Extra light can be provided into the shower area by placing a row of glass bricks along the top or even by building the enclosure out of opaque glass bricks. Also fixing a shower door with opaque glass will also allow the ingress of light without compromising privacy.

Those that feel a little more adventurous may like to consider the option of a shower for two people. Each shower head is fixed to the wall at opposite ends of the shower cubicle. As with the more enclosed shower the walls are constructing by fixing ceramic tiles to the walls of the shower area. A door is not usually required as there is often enough room for two people to move about freely.

Designing a new shower can be a lot of fun as it allows you to reflect your own style and personality, as long as it is i keeping with the general decor of the bathroom.
