  • Shower Cabin Bathroom Design: 30 Modern Designs

    Decorating a small space is not easy, especially when it comes to the bathroom, where comfort usually doesn't go hand in hand with style. And what kind of interior design can we talk about if a significant part of an already tiny room is cluttered up by the bath itself?

    Crowding, however, does not mean that you need to limit yourself in comfort - designers offer many options for a stylish and modern bathroom arrangement so that you can comfortably take water treatments.

    And it is advised to start with a rather progressive step: to replace bathtubs with shower cabins, which more and more people have begun to give preference to. It is understandable - cabins are not only much more convenient and practical than baths, but they also take up much less space.

    Another plus: shower enclosures blend harmoniously into any interior design. Here are some of the many ideas you can implement in your own bathrooms.

    Stay in style

    In order for the bathroom to look harmonious and complete, the shower cabin in it, like a piece of furniture in any other room, should not stand out from the general style. And since the cabins themselves are quite laconic in design and faceless, they will look best in modern and minimalist styles.

    1. Hi-tech style bathroom with shower cabin

    The first thing that comes to mind is the hi-tech style. Strict, discreet, but at the same time functional, it is most suitable for placing a shower cabin. The main thing is that it does not differ too much from the rest of the furniture and plumbing in the room, which, as a rule, is dominated by glass, tiles, mirrors and metals. Hi-tech also involves the use of a discreet palette and geometric shapes in interior design.

    2. Loft-style bathroom with shower cabin

    The loft style manages to combine many different elements, from pipes and metals to wood. And such a variety is perfect for a bathroom with a shower, which can be matched to the whole environment, choosing, for example, a glazed version of the shower with imitation of forged inserts. But it is better to refuse partitions, since for the loft style it is important to have space and the absence of any clutter.

    Photo by ReRooms

    3. Scandi-style bathroom with shower cabin

    Small bathrooms can also be decorated in Scandinavian style, which is characterized by light, comfort and homely simplicity. In this case, preference should be given to white and beige finishes, and mosaic or tile patterns should be used as bright accents. Wood will also give life to the bathroom, which can be used both in the same finish and as a material for furniture.

    Soft lighting and decorations, such as wicker baskets, a rug or neatly folded towels, will be the final touches in an interior design project.

    Photo by ReRooms

    4. Bathroom with shower cabin in classic style

    For the classics, it is best to use an open or glazed shower cabin, and equip the bathroom itself in light, discreet colors, such as white, gray or light blue. They will emphasize the luxury of the chosen style, as well as the decoration with natural materials (stone or marble) and the furniture that matches the design. Decor items will also help to add gloss to such a bathroom: mirrors in elegant frames, carpets, intricate gold or silver lamps.

    Photo by ReRooms

    Bathroom decoration

    Designers offer design options using both traditional ideas and original materials that are not quite typical for the bathroom.

    5. Tile

    Tile is the ideal solution for bathroom decoration, because this material is resistant to moisture, easy to clean and also suitable for floors and walls.

    Perhaps this is why many people find tiles too boring and unsuitable for an unusual bathroom design, but even a simple material can look advantageous if you carefully choose colors or alternate tiles of different colors.

    Photo by ReRooms

    6. Mosaic patterns

    shower cabin. However, be careful with a large mosaic: it can visually narrow an already not very spacious room.

    Photo by ReRooms

    7. Wood

    Wood has long established itself as a versatile material that can make the atmosphere in the room cozy and give it high cost and sophistication. The use of wood can also be found in the bathroom, using other materials that imitate it as decoration. For decorating a shower cabin, wood is perfect, because it fits into most styles. It is only important to choose the most moisture-resistant rock and process it accordingly.

    Photo by ReRooms

    8. Brickwork

    Brickwork also looks unusual and modern in the bathroom, especially when combined with tiles or other finishing materials to form interesting accents in the room. At the same time, it is not necessary to use a stylized brick - in some design options, a rough wall finish will also look good, for example, in loft-style bathrooms.

    Photo ReRooms

    9. Granite

    Granite tiles are used to give the bathroom an aristocracy and luxury. It looks expensive and self-sufficient in many interior styles, not only in classic ones. Granite is also perfect for a shower cabin, as it is highly durable and easy to clean.

    Photo ReRooms

    10. Marble

    Another natural material that transforms the bathroom and makes it spectacular. Marble looks expensive and elegant, is durable, so it can also be used as a material for a shower tray. This decision will also have a beneficial effect on the design, as it will allow the shower cabin to become a natural part of the entire interior.

    Photo by ReRooms

    Color solutions

    Often, the way we perceive a particular room is influenced by the colors in which it is made. A similar rule applies to the bathroom, where, in the absence of real space, one has to look for other ways to add lightness to the room.

    11. Universal White

    White color adds space and light to any room, which is especially important for a bathroom isolated from both. In addition, white fits the style of any interior, which means that a shower cabin in combination with it will look advantageous. It is important not to overdo it with white, as a solid color will make the room visually static and uninviting.

    Photo by ReRooms

    12. Beige and brown tones

    Soft and neutral shades, such as beige, cream or sand, are best for relaxation and relaxation. Therefore, they are the best suited for decorating the bathroom and creating a cozy atmosphere in it. You can dilute a boring monochromatic palette with brown or white, but it is not recommended to combine more than two or three colors of a similar range.

    Photo ReRooms

    13. Black accents

    As a base color for a bathroom, black may not always look advantageous, as it visually narrows the space, but it will be good as separate accents in the room. For example, one black wall, combined with other materials, will visually add height to the bathroom. A similar effect will be produced by a black floor in combination with light walls.

    Photo by ReRooms

    14. Neutral Gray

    Another suitable color for the bathroom is gray, which has different shades of temperature and brightness. This explains its versatility: gray will suit any style of interior and will be perfectly combined with different materials, including glass and tiles, in which shower cabins are most often made.

    Photo by ReRooms

    15. Marine colors

    There is nothing more natural for the bathroom than water shades: blue, blue, turquoise. Traditionally, they are used to decorate an entire room, but they fit much more harmoniously into a light modern design as separate elements, such as flooring or some furniture.

    Photo by ReRooms

    Shower cabin

    In order to create a fashionable interior in the bathroom, you need to think about how the shower cabin itself will look like. There are several basic options for its design, each of which fits a specific design or size of the bathroom.

    16. Open shower enclosure

    The most versatile shower enclosure that does not require special finishing or matching with the rest of the furniture. An open shower cabin, although it seems bare and empty, in modern minimalist styles is combined with the decor and design of walls and floors, and in seasoned classics it does not draw attention to itself.

    Photo by ReRooms

    17. Corner shower cabin

    This version of the shower cabin is the least overall, and therefore best suited for a small bathroom. At the same time, the small size does not mean at all that the corner shower cannot be designed in accordance with the rest of the furniture.

    Photo by ReRooms

    18. Shower cabin without tray

    Another economical option, which at the same time makes the task of the designer easier, since trays in the shower cabin can often not fit into the overall style of the bathroom or stand out ugly on a flat floor.

    Photo by ReRooms

    19. Glazed shower cabin

    Glazed shower cabins exist in various variations that will suit both a bright and brutal loft, and natural and cozy scandi. In addition, glass is a convenient and versatile material. The main thing is to choose the most durable for your own safety.

    Photo ReRooms

    20. Shower cubicle with partition

    When space allows, it is more convenient to resort to zoning in the bathroom and separate the shower cubicle with a partition. Of course, it will not completely hide the shower from the rest of the interior, but in our case this is not necessary - a partition finished with the same material as the walls in the bathroom will protect the room from water, but will not block the light. And at the same time it will not create the effect of even greater tightness.

    Photo ReRooms

    21. Shower cabin behind the wall

    If you are a happy owner of a spacious bathroom, you can not bother trying to squeeze the shower cabin into the farthest corner, but immediately allocate a separate area behind the wall for it, which can be finished in accordance with the style of everything interior.

    Photo by ReRooms

    22. Shower cabin in a niche

    If the bathroom has a niche, it can be converted into a shower cubicle. This will not only save space, but also naturally separate the shower from the rest of the room.

    Photo by ReRooms

    Lighting

    Properly selected lighting plays an important role in the arrangement of the bathroom, since the atmosphere in the interior largely depends on it. Will it be cold and uncomfortable or conducive to relaxation - it is the light that decides.

    23. Soft light

    Although many people prefer to install lamps with bright white light in bathrooms due to the lack of windows, soft lighting contributes to greater comfort in the atmosphere, which does not tire the eyes, plumbing fixtures and surfaces of furniture and walls don't shine as much.

    Photo by ReRooms

    24. Area lighting

    Selective lighting of different areas of the bathroom creates a special cosiness. It not only forms accents on the most important objects in the interior, but also complements the main light source where its power is not enough, for example, in front of a mirror or sink. For this function, you can use not only sconces and LEDs, but also spotlights.

    Photo ReRooms

    25. Light in the shower cabin

    In a small bathroom with a walk-in shower, the lack of lighting can be made up for by light directly in the shower. A similar solution has recently been often used, not to mention the fact that it provides comfort and convenience of water procedures. At the same time, you can add light to the cabin, using discreet LEDs or the same local lights that fit into minimalist styles.

    Photo by ReRooms

    Important is in the details

    The last but not least place in our article is given to decor items that allow you to make the bathroom interior cohesive and truly cozy.

    26. Shelves and wall decorations

    Many people think that shelves clutter up space and disfigure bathroom walls. In fact, it is often thanks to the shelving consistent with the overall design, numerous shelves and hanging cabinets that the room seems to stretch upwards. Not to mention how many useful things you can place on them and thus perfectly use the entire space of the bathroom.

    Photo by ReRooms

    27. Bathroom mirror

    In addition to its main function, a mirror in the interior visually enlarges the space, which is especially beneficial for cramped and small bathrooms. And do not forget to choose a frame that matches the overall style of the bathroom, then the mirror will also be a significant piece of decor.

    Photo by ReRooms

    28. Stylized decorations

    You shouldn't overdo it with accessories in the bathroom - the effect of clutter and disorder may appear. Nevertheless, well-chosen decor items give the room comfort. These can be candles, vessels and containers for storing small things, bottles with perfumes or oils. In other words, everything that can be stored in the bathroom and at the same time not hidden from prying eyes.

    Photo by ReRooms

    29. Plants

    Despite the fact that plants have a place in more spacious, lighted and lived-in rooms, they can also please the eye in a small amount in the bathroom. If possible, try to choose living and ornamental plants that will suit any style and will not be demanding on the conditions of detention. Succulents, which are gaining more and more popularity, will become a universal option.

    Photo ReRooms

    30. Fabrics

    Finally, all kinds of fabrics that soften the interior create a feeling of home comfort, so feel free to use them not only for their intended purpose, but also for decoration. Put a soft rug in front of the shower, hang terrycloth bathrobes on the walls and fold towels in neat piles or cozy rolls.

    The most popular bathroom flooring is tiles. But nothing can replace natural wood in terms of tactile effect, environmental friendliness, comfort and beauty. It will be pleasant to step on such a coating, with proper processing it is not afraid of water. In addition, there will be no need to install a "warm floor" system, since wood is a non-cold material.

    Alexander Krivov, designer:

    — In this project, we used natural teak with a special deck sealant, as is done on real yachts. From above the floor was covered with oil. For prevention, of course, it will be necessary to regularly treat the surface with oil. So the floor will become more durable and resistant to moisture.

    Design or plumbing: where to start designing a bathroom

    Sometimes we are ready to do everything for our beloved pets. Therefore, if there is a dog in your house, then a “paw washer” is a necessary thing! You can forget about the times when, after walking on snowy sidewalks, you had to drag the dog into the bath to wash his paws and stomach.

    Instead of installing a shower tray, it is better to make a floor-mounted shower drain or drainage channel. The Roomble editors recommend using brand products TECE . Drainage channels are built into the floor of the bathroom so that the resulting shower cabin or corner has no barriers in the form of a side or step. Thus, the floor surface is immediately divided into dry and wet zones, which allows you to make the most efficient use of the bathroom area.

    Alexander Krivov, designer:

    — A uniform floor level is maintained throughout the entire bathroom. On the one hand, this avoids the obvious division of a small bathroom into several zones, which visually makes the room more spacious. On the other hand, such a solution is very convenient if there are people with disabilities in the house - the elderly or the disabled.

    Unfortunately, such a solution, in which the floors of the shower area and the rest of the room will be on the same level, is not always feasible in a city apartment. However, the pros outweigh the cons anyway. This is ease of use, and barrier-free space, and stylish design, and ease of maintenance. The shower area can be highlighted with a mosaic or a contrasting color, separated by glass or a curtain.

    Alexander Krivov, designer:

    — Usually we are tied to the level of entry into the sewer riser. Accordingly, in order to ensure the slope of the shower drain pipe and a single floor level, it is necessary to increase the level of the screed throughout the room. Although if you have a two-level apartment or your own house, and also if your apartment is located in an old house with mixed multi-level floors, this solution will be optimal.

    A small bathroom can be visually enlarged with a large mirror. This is the simplest and at the same time the most effective solution for expanding space. A full-width mirror pushes the boundaries, and what was three square meters can turn into a long and bright corridor!

    A modern bathroom should be free of unnecessary details. Designer Alexander Krivov showed us a very interesting solution. Both the sewer pipe and the flush-mounted toilet tank were hidden in the partition separating the shower area, and a niche with shelves for shower accessories was built in from the outside.
