An L-shaped bath sits beside the basin drawers and built-in recesses. Tile-effect panels create the grey backdrop, with the shower controls positioned away from the main spray area.
Bath or shower to suit the day
A bath with a shower above offers two ways to wash within the same part of the room. The screen helps contain spray during showering, while the bath remains available for a longer soak. Combining these functions preserves a choice of routine without requiring a separate shower enclosure elsewhere in the bathroom.
Everyday items close to the basin
Drawers beneath the basin give toiletries and small personal items a place close to where they are used. Putting supplies away leaves the basin surface available for washing and getting ready. The storage belongs to the washing area itself, so the room does not have to rely on an extra freestanding cabinet for these everyday essentials.
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 clearer floor beneath the radiator
Feeding the radiator pipes through the wall leaves fewer pipes rising from the floor beneath it. This makes that particular area more straightforward to reach when wiping. It is a small finishing decision with a useful daily effect, keeping the heating fitting in place while reducing the obstacles around the floor directly below.
A useful place to get ready
The mirror gives the basin area a clear focus for getting ready. Its illuminated edge adds another layer of light and makes the reflection a distinct feature in the room. Placing the mirror alongside the washing area keeps these everyday functions together, with the neighbouring surfaces available for the small items currently being used.
