A Shower and Storage beneath the Roof in Stonehaven

A walk-in shower replaces the bath in this Stonehaven bathroom, with basin furniture and shelves fitted around the roof structure.

A dedicated place to shower

The basin moved closer to the toilet, allowing the shower to occupy the former bath area. Concealed fittings sit within pale shower panels beneath the changing ceiling height.

A defined showering area keeps the washing routine focused in one part of the room. Clear glass preserves a view through to the surrounding finishes while marking the shower boundary. The arrangement makes the relationship between the shower and nearby fittings easy to understand when entering the room.

Essentials put away near the basin

A boxed area beneath the roof supports a worktop and basin. Open shelves at the side of the unit provide places for daily products within reach of the washing area.

Enclosed storage gives daily toiletries and spare supplies a place behind doors. Products can be returned after use rather than gathering around the tap or across the worktop. Keeping storage close to the washing area also reduces the need for an extra freestanding cabinet in the room.

Bottles with a place of their own

Recessed shelving at the shower end uses the lower wall beneath the roof window. It gives shower products storage without another cabinet on the floor.

Recessed shelves hold shower products within the wall instead of projecting into the washing area. Shampoo and shower gel can stay away from the tray or bath edge, with the things needed for washing close by. The storage becomes part of the room rather than an added basket.

A practical finish underfoot

Vinyl click flooring adds a wood-effect finish below the painted half-height MDF panelling. Downlights, an extractor and a towel radiator complete the practical provisions around the room.

Vinyl click flooring gives a warmer feel under bare feet than ceramic tile and avoids floor grout joints. Its appearance connects the fittings without another change of material between areas. The floor remains part of the ordinary cleaning routine, with furniture and fittings defining the space around it.
