18 Double Showers For a Spa-Like Experience

Design by Cathie Hong Interiors / Photo by Margaret Austin Photo

Taking a couple's shower might sound spontaneous and romantic, but in reality can often be a cramped, slippery, and awkward affair in a layout designed for one. Whether you're looking to build an ergonomic space for spontaneous joint showers or dual showers are a practical necessity in a household where you both need to get ready for work at the same time, a double shower can be a practical primary bathroom luxury for those with the budget and floor space.

Unlike a shower with conventional, hand-held, and rainwater showerheads attached to the same water source, a double shower features two showerheads within close reach that are controlled separately so each person can adjust the water temperature and length of their shower to suit their own needs.

Check out these double shower ideas in a range of layouts, styles, sizes, and finishes.

About This Term: Primary Bathroom

Many real estate associations, including the National Association of Home Builders, have classified the term "Master Bedroom" (or "Master Bathroom") as discriminatory. "Primary Bedroom" is the name now widely used among the real estate community and better reflects the purpose of the room.

How to Make Your Bathroom Look Expensive

7 Must-haves for Your Double Shower Ideas

After knocking our elbows into the walls of our too-small shower one too many times, we decided a change needed to be made. We came up with a plan to flip around our bathroom layout so that we could create a huge new double shower floor plan (including a seat and double shower heads)!

Once we figured out how that was possible (our available space to expand the bathroom was nil), we were able to put together the new layout. (One of the major changes of which was flipping the old W.C. space with the old shower space.) We then decided we wanted to go with massive slabs of marble for the shower walls so they’d be one solid surface. This would not only be beautiful but practical. Who wants to scrub a tiled shower wall full of grout lines? Not me!

After finalizing our solid surface walls, we then put together our own DIY non-slip shower floor tile. When that was done, we were finally able to install our hardware for the double shower, as well as our gorgeous glass shower doors.

Remember what we were showering in before?

Yep. That was it. And this is where we wanted our new shower to move to:

DOUBLE SHOWER MUST-HAVES

#1: Glass Shower Doors

For our double shower floor plan, we went with full glass shower doors with (of course) polished nickel hardware. Does it look like our elbows’ll be safe in there now or what?!😂

shower doors | hinges | rain shower head | shower head | thermostatic valve | diverter valve | drain | LED lights

You can also see we added these money-saving LED lights, which have been amazing. They have the perfect soft color of light, and best of all they’ve already saved us some moolah!

Let’s move a little closer so you can see both sides of our new walk-in shower (with a bench seat! don’t forget the bench seat!).

#2: Double Shower Heads

We hoped for double shower heads in the new space, and were totally able to fit them. (Unexpected bonus: this has come in handy with kids when necessary!)

#3: Slab Shower Walls

Yes, those are grout-free shower walls, my friend! (You can read more about how we created those right here.)

Solid surfaces = no time spent scrubbing grout lines. (What’s the thing called where you kiss your fingertips to express deliciousness? I’m doing that thing right now.)

#4: Thermostatic Valve

This was a must-have for our double shower heads because we each have our own side. Jessica likes scalding hot showers. Matt likes what I call lukewarm showers. This way, we’re not turning our shower head back and forth every time; we each can leave ours at our perfect temp and it stays that way.

Can a thermostatic shower valve help your marriage? It’s possible!

Here’s the one we used. And here’s the diverter valve we used.

walk-in DOUBLE SHOWER MUST-HAVES

#5: Rain Shower Head

Not only did we fit in double shower heads, but we popped a rain shower head up there too! And there was a specific reason I had a rain shower head on my list.

rain shower head | shower head | LED light

Years ago, before children, Matt and I went on a trip to Antarctica. On the way back, we arranged to do some more travel through South America and end in Rio de Janeiro. We’re normally not big city people, but Rio was beautiful—we loved it! But we were there in summer and it was HOT.

One day, we had walked some ridiculously long distance through the city on a blazing hot day. We were so beyond overheated and sweaty, it’s still mind-boggling to remember. Record-setting temps like nothing I’d ever experienced before nor experienced since. When we finally made it back to the hotel, we couldn’t make it to the pool fast enough. This little hotel had a rooftop pool with a covered area to shower, and it had a rain shower head. I don’t think I’d ever used one before, and I turned the knob to give me the most freezing water possible, but let me tell you—I HAVE NEVER HAD A FREEZING SHOWER FEEL SO GOOD! My body had been so overheated that I remember just standing in that ice-cold water raining completely over me for goodness knows how long. 20 minutes maybe? Just standing there, letting freezing cold water rain on my head and waiting for my noggin to get down to a safe temperature.

And right then and there, I swore my undying allegiance to rain shower heads. Before Rio, I would have thought they were a nonessential. After Rio, I had to have one as soon as we had the chance to build our own shower. (It was 7 years later that we were able to have it, but my commitment—and the memory—lasted that long.)

Now, if I ever get caught in that situation again, I’ll be ready!

#6: Double Shower with Bench

While our new double shower dimensions were much larger than our old shower’s, it still wasn’t big enough to have a massive bench seat. Matt didn’t care if we had one or not, but I thought it would be nice to have the option since it was an easy add. So we were able to fit in a corner bench seat, and I (Jess) have loved having it!

PS: Doesn’t our DIY shower floor tile look incredible?!? Matches perfectly + no hydroplaning nightmares for Jess. Hooray!

#7: Double Shower Niches

You all know by now that I normally don’t like shelves (we did 100% drawers in our kitchen, zero cabinets!), but unfortunately we didn’t dream up a way to get shower drawers in here. (But I could probably figure out a way and build another side business, dontcha think?)

Therefore, we had to figure out a way to get shelves into our shower. I didn’t want one huge shelf running the length of the back wall because

  1. The beautiful veining on our slabs would get ruined as the focal point,
  2. it would look too cluttered in this double shower design,
  3. it would be more to clean. (Our cleaning lady really hates coming to work when there’s too much of it added needlessly. We try to accommodate for her when we can because, well, we’re stuck with her. I know, more third person talk that just entertains me to no end!)

So we just did these simple small niches with shelves tucked into each side of the wall under the “His & Hers Double Shower Heads. ” We like having a section for tall things and a section for short things. It’s been juuuuuuuuust right.

More detailed info about our porcelain shower niches (including dimensions and extra tips) can be seen right here!

DOUBLE SHOWER & TUB AREA

BEFORES & AFTERS

So, here’s what this one view of the bathroom looked like before we

  1. flipped the WC and shower,
  2. created the new walk in double shower, and
  3. added our gorgeous freestanding tub.

Download our free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen . DOWNLOAD NOW A tired primary bathroom, with varying ceiling heights and a beige-on-beige color scheme, was screaming for love. Squaring the room and adding natural materials erased the memory of the lack luster space and converted it to a bright and welcoming spa oasis. The home was a new build in 2005 and it looked like all the builder's material choices remained. The client was clear on their design direction but were challenged by the differing ceiling heights and were looking to hire a design-build firm that could resolve that issue. This local Glen Ellyn couple found us on Instagram (@kitchenstudioge, follow us ?). They loved our designs and felt like we fit their style. They requested a full primary bath renovation to include a large shower, soaking tub, double vanity with storage options, and heated floors. The wife also really wanted a separate make-up vanity. The biggest challenge presented to us was to architecturally marry the various ceiling heights and deliver a streamlined design. The existing layout worked well for the couple, so we kept everything in place, except we enlarged the shower and replaced the built-in tub with a lovely free-standing model. We also added a sitting make-up vanity. We were able to eliminate the awkward ceiling lines by extending all the walls to the highest level. Then, to accommodate the sprinklers and HVAC, lowered the ceiling height over the entrance and shower area which then opens to the 2-story vanity and tub area. Very dramatic! This high-end home deserves high-end fixtures. The homeowners also quickly realized they loved the look of natural marble and wanted to use as much of it as possible in their new bath. They chose a marble slab from the stone yard for the countertops and back splash, and we found complimentary marble tile for the shower. The homeowners also liked the idea of ​​mixing metals in their new posh bathroom and loved the look of black, gold, and chrome. Although our clients were very clear on their style, they were having a difficult time pulling it all together and envisioning the final product. As interior designers it is our job to translate and elevate our clients’ ideas into a deliverable design. We presented the homeowners with mood boards and 3D renderings of our modern, clean, white marble design. Since the color scheme was relatively neutral, at the homeowner's request, we decided to add of interest with the patterns and shapes in the room. We were first inspired by the shower floor tile with its circular/linear motif. We designed the cabinetry, floor and wall tiles, mirrors, cabinet pulls, and wainscoting to have a square or rectangular shape, and then to create interest we added perfectly placed circles to contrast with the rectangular shapes. The globe shaped chandelier against the square wall trim is a delightful yet subtle juxtaposition. The clients were overjoyed with our interpretation of their vision and impressed with the level of detail we brought to the project. It’s one thing to know how you want a space to look, but it takes a special set of skills to create the design and see it thorough to implementation. Could hiring The Kitchen Studio be the first step to making your home dreams come to life?

This very small bathroom was visually expanded by removing the tub/shower curtain at the end of the room and replacing it with a full-width dual shower/steamshower. A tub-fill spout was installed to serve as a baby tub filler/toddler "shower." The pedestal trough sink was used to open up the floor space, and an art deco cabinet was modified to a minimal depth to hold other bathroom essentials. The medicine cabinet is custom-made, has two receptacles in it, and is 8" deep.
