Bold showers
If you have limited space, a shower always trumps a bath. Walk-in versions are popular as they create an open feel and are often simpler to maintain. “Opt for an Ezicleen protective coating which repels soap scum from your large glass panels, or do away with glass altogether and finish the divider wall with striking large-format tiles,” says Darren James. For added functionality, Sarah Nolen suggests installing a fold-down seat. “This allows the option to sit down, which is great for young children, older people and is super handy when shaving legs,” she says. If you can’t include a tub, interior designer Meredith
Lee recommends installing a flexible shower outlet for an immersive water experience. “Opt for a large shower head combined with a body spray, or install a twin shower like the Methven ‘Aio’, which can be adjusted to suit different heights and preferences,” she says.
