When designing your main or guest bathroom, the walk-in shower is an important detail to plan and even make as the focal point of your space. You may even opt to include a freestanding tub as a full wet room for your walk-in shower. Windows or skylights in your shower will help to add natural light to your space and eliminate the need for artificial lighting during the day.
A small shelf or built-in niche with shelving will allow for organization and efficient storage. You could also use this display space to personalize with accessories. A larger shower will provide room to add dual shower heads, whether it be wall-mount, handheld, or rain-style showerheads. You may also wish to put several showerheads in your space for a steam room, to melt away your daily stresses.
These walk-in showers will leave you feeling inspired and invigorated, so have a look below for some amazing ideas that include resource details and a link to the interior designer/architect of the project.
