Recessed Storage in a Compact Shower Room in Aberdeen

A 1200 mm walk-in shower and wall-hung basin furniture make use of this compact Aberdeen bathroom, with pale tiles and warm wood-effect details.

A dedicated place to shower

A 700 mm fixed glass panel marks the side of the shower tray. Concealed controls sit outside the spray area, making it possible to start the water before entering.

A defined showering area keeps the washing routine focused in one part of the room. Clear glass preserves a view through to the surrounding finishes while marking the shower boundary. The arrangement makes the relationship between the shower and nearby fittings easy to understand when entering the room.

Bottles with a place of their own

The illuminated recess holds bottles within the shower wall. Epoxy grout was used in this tiled area, linking practical storage with the room’s pale patterned finish.

Recessed shelves hold shower products within the wall instead of projecting into the washing area. Shampoo and shower gel can stay away from the tray or bath edge, with the things needed for washing close by. The storage becomes part of the room rather than an added basket.

Essentials put away near the basin

A slatted wood-effect wall-hung vanity supplies drawers beneath the basin. A tall cabinet beside the toilet gives additional enclosed storage while retaining a clear floor below the basin.

Enclosed storage gives daily toiletries and spare supplies a place behind doors. Products can be returned after use rather than gathering around the tap or across the worktop. Keeping storage close to the washing area also reduces the need for an extra freestanding cabinet in the room.

A place to get ready

The illuminated mirror, shaver socket and toothbrush charger provide conveniences at the basin. A UPVC ceiling with downlights and a wall-fed towel radiator complete the visible room.

A mirror at the washing area provides a reflection for the small tasks that begin or end the day. Its position makes use of the available wall rather than adding another piece of floor furniture. The basin and surrounding surface remain the practical centre of this part of the room.
