Singing in the rain – 9 showers to inspire

As bathrooms increasingly become personal/parental retreats, well the shower is an even more private retreat beyond that – these ablutionary rooms for one, or in some cases two, exude personality and day-to-day functionality  

1. Desert & rain

SAOTA 

This dual use bathroom utility is material coded – stone for the shower stall and wood for the sauna – not only is this convenient, it dramatises the earthy interiors of both sauna and shower through striking contrast.

2. Sitting, just sitting in the rain

Eternodesign

This shower with Lume Green tiles peaking through has the added luxury of a generous built-in seat – definitely a place for a long lingering soak.

3. I walk the line

Bonham Architecture & Interiors

Carefully selected natural stones are configured into a geometric story, flowing from entry along the floor into this His & Hers shower, situated along the full width of the back wall. 

The custom tile pattern continues up the shower wall giving further display to the Macubus, Calacatta and Nero Maquina marbles – a piece of functional art.

4. On a clear day ...

EJ Building

... you can see forever. Okay, not quite forever but a glass stall adds to a room's sense of space as you can take in the entire bathroom at a glance. 

Two soap niches equal double the convenience – the lower niche partly instated for shaving legs.

5. We'll always have Mexico

Sarah Burrows Design

Why not make things personal? Here, the owners requested a large shower and the integration of Mexican mosaic tiles – creating an individualistic sanctuary to unwind in.

6. Crisp and modern

Impresa

There's a reason this shower stall looks so sharp – all Impresa tile shower bases and stainless-steel shower trays are precision manufactured using 3D design software and accurate laser cutting. 

The inclusion of a channel drain in this stall adds to the parred back allure.

7. Under the waves

Eolo 

Powder rooms are often places of drama, but why stop with the small bathrooms? Perhaps it's no surprise that this wild blue bathroom with show-stopping wavy ceiling is in proximity to the sea.

8. Refined meets understated

Chilton & Mayne 

This shower is half open for access while a tiled nib wall brings privacy – in terms of good looks, the designers took a subtle toned, high quality approach.

9. Elegant lines

Suede + Stone 

A black steel segmented shower stall brings a sophisticated feel to this shower enclosure – the black frame pops against the pearlesque Orobico Grey Honed tilework.
