A shower-end wall can do more than provide one bottle shelf. In our Oldmeldrum ensuite, a false wall resolves the width beyond the shower tray and accommodates illuminated niches alongside a recessed cupboard.
We can draw the end wall in section to see which storage needs depth behind the surface and which parts project into the room. Give washing products a visible home and consider what needs enclosed storage. Then look at the depth available within the shower and how you would reach the cupboard. Those decisions belong together before the wall shape is fixed. If a door is planned outside the washing area, consider which way it opens and whether there is room to stand while using it.
