Dark shower tiles contrast with patterned floor tiles and pale painted walls. A bottle recess and basin cupboard bring useful storage into the simple shower, basin and toilet arrangement.
A dedicated place to shower
The shower has its own defined area, with clear glass preserving the view through the room. Separating this washing space from the basin gives each fitting a clear purpose. The screen helps contain spray while leaving the surrounding finishes visible. A useful bathroom layout considers the places for washing, drying and moving between fittings together.
Storage fitted into the layout
Fitted cupboards provide enclosed storage beside the basin, keeping spare products close without putting everything on display. The worktop links the furniture and gives small items a temporary place during washing. Bringing storage into the fitted arrangement allows the room’s useful surfaces to serve daily tasks instead of becoming the permanent home for every bottle.
Bottles off the washing surface
Recessed shelves give shampoo and other washing products a home inside the wall. Bottles stay near the washing area without gathering on the tray or bath edge. Because the storage is inset, it avoids adding a basket that projects into the space. The shelves make a small but useful contribution to ordinary washing and cleaning routines.
A coordinated tiled finish
The tiles connect the washing areas through a consistent wall finish. Their pattern and colour provide a backdrop for the fittings rather than introducing unrelated surfaces at every corner. Keeping the finish coherent lets the useful details stand out: storage near washing areas, clear positions for the sanitaryware and surfaces that can be cared for as part of the normal routine.
