Let a continuous wall finish carry the change in function

A shower boundary can be clear without changing every wall finish at the point where it begins. In our Ellon bathroom, marble-effect panels visually connect the shower and basin surfaces. The open shower has its own fittings and recessed storage, while pale cupboards and a wall-hung toilet define the room outside the washing area.

The advantage of carrying a finish across these different tasks is a calmer view of the whole room. It also asks more of the setting out. Compare the panel pattern and joint positions behind the shower fittings, above the basin and at the furniture edges before ordering. Consider where the pattern should carry across and where a cabinet, corner or glass line can provide a sensible stopping point. That is how a continuous finish can support an organised room. The fittings make the different uses clear while the walls still read as a coherent surface.
