By Benjamin Clarke | Published on 3rd May 2018

Designing and creating a new shower room can be a challenge and sometimes all you need is a little inspiration to help you along the way. Your new shower room should be a place where you can relax and enjoy a refreshing shower to awaken your senses. Here are ten shower room ideas to help you create your perfect space:

Install a wetroom glass screen

Installing a wetroom glass screen will not only look sleek and contemporary but will help open up a small space. Wetroom glass screens are available in a range of sizes and most can be fitted direct to the floor or on top of a low profile shower tray.

Maximise space

Your shower room will most likely be the smallest room in your house so it’s important that you make the best possible use of available space. Making use of high gloss surfaces and reflective materials will help to bounce the light around creating a more spacious feel. To create extra space think about installing a large, recessed mirror, which provides a fantastic way to add useful shelving for toiletries or decorative objects. Large high-gloss tiles in the same tone will also make your shower room appear more spacious as well as creating an ultra-modern appearance.

Choose wall-mounted fittings

Wall-mounted fittings such as a basin or a vanity unit and a toilet provide the best way to maximise space in your shower room and ensure of easier cleaning. A wall-mounted basin and toilet also looks more contemporary and there are an impressive range of styles to choose from too.

Include storage space

A shower room full of clutter will only make the space look and feel even smaller than it really is, so install a stylish, wall-mounted vanity unit which features plenty of storage space for all your shower room essentials for a neat, clutter free appearance. Opt for a high gloss finish to bounce the light around.

Create a warm and inviting space

To ensure your shower room feels warm and inviting install a vertical designer radiator or a heated towel rail. Vertical designer radiators are ideal for making the best use of limited wall space as well as creating an eye-catching feature too. Heated towel rails are great for adding modern style to your shower room as well as ensuring of warm, dry towels; choose from a variety of designs and sizes to suit the space you have.

Shower in style

Your shower area should be the main focal point of your shower room so make sure you install a statement shower head to add that all important wow factor. Think about creating a feature wall with stunning mosaic tiles and opt for a fixed ceiling mounted shower head with LED lights for a touch of designer style.

Create a spa-style look

Choosing limestone tiles for the floor and wall will not only create a unified look but provides a great way to add a luxurious, spa-style appearance to your new shower room. To enhance a feeling of space take the tiles all the way up to the ceiling and install a floor-to-ceiling glass shower panel to help emphasise the height of the shower room.

Fit eye-catching taps

The right choice of basin taps can really make a big difference to the overall look of your new shower room. Basin taps with an open spout design are bang on trend and create a stunning waterfall effect. Alternatively if you want something different to chrome how about black or even white taps?

Create a statement with a designer basin

Create a style statement in your new shower room with a countertop basin such as a Roca Urban basin. The Roca Urban countertop basins include a choice of five black on white cityscape designs which will create a stunning feature in your shower room.

Add a splash of colour

Introducing a bold splash of colour into your shower room will add extra interest. Adding colour into your shower room is easy and could be through the use of a vanity unit, towels, tiles or accessories.
