Design A Bathroom Shower

Design a Bathroom Shower

The bathroom shower should complement the rest of the bathroom design, while accommodating the needs of the primary user. Use the shower design to continue the theme or design of the bathroom, while including elements such as body sprays and multifunction shower heads to enhance its use.

Instructions

Continuing the Bathroom Design

1. When designing a shower, begin by taking into consideration the size of the shower and the size of the bathroom. A small shower can still be functional, but lots of decorative tiles, multiple shower heads and wire baskets can make the space seem busy and confused. Tailoring the design to the size of the space helps provide a cohesive design element.

2. Match the shower tile colors and materials to those used in the rest of the bathroom. If the bathroom and shower are small, visually enlarge the bathroom by using the same color and material from the bathroom floor throughout the space. Simply change the sizes of the material to two-inch tiles for the shower floor to accommodate the pitch of the drain and six-inch tiles for the shower walls for additional interest.

If the bathroom is large, choose tiles in the shower that complete the bathroom theme, such as subway tiles on the shower walls with a traditional mosaic pattern on the floor. Pick up a border of mosaics in the shower to finish the design.

Pull any accent colors used in the shower from the vanity top to tie the shower with the rest of the bathroom design.

3. If possible, ensure that the shower valve matches the style of the faucets used in the bathroom. This includes not only the metal finish of the valve, but also the handle style and escutcheon rings. Style elements in the bathroom should be repeated wherever possible, including in the finishes of metal.
