Plan shower recess heights around the bottles you use

Tall shampoo bottles and smaller toiletries need different amounts of space. These two illuminated shower recesses have different opening heights, giving essentials separate places within reach and keeping bottles off the tray.

The useful detail is to plan the openings around the products you actually use. Allow for taller pump bottles and enough space to lift them out comfortably, rather than choosing identical recesses simply for symmetry. Here, the aligned edges and matching textured tiles bring the two compartments together, while warm lighting makes the storage a feature of the shower wall.
