Think about both ends of a single shower screen

A single clear glass panel defines the shower in our Blackburn, Aberdeen bathroom. The shower fitting is on the opposite wall, and pale marble-effect panels link the washing area to the fitted furniture. The arrangement keeps the glass visually simple, but the useful question is how the fixed end, open end and water source relate when you are actually taking a shower.

When reviewing a plan, put three marks on it. Show where you enter, where you stand under the water and where you will step out to dry. Add the handset reach if you normally use it to rinse down the wall or tray. A clear drawing of those positions tells you more than the screen width alone. It also gives your designer a practical basis for checking likely splash direction and what will sit near the open end.
