In a narrow basin alcove, the wall at the end of the worktop can do more than close off the space. Here, two timber shelves sit beside the mirror, giving everyday toiletries a place close to where they are used. That can keep the basin surround clearer and leave more room for getting ready.
Matching the shelves to the worktop also makes them feel part of the design. We consider shelf depth and spacing alongside the basin and mirror, so useful storage fits the alcove without crowding the person using it.
