A serene shower space with amenities like rain showerheads, body jets, steam showers and hand showers can create the perfect retreat to help you de-stress and reinvigorate. Step into a sleek glass shower stall or enjoy the feel of a natural spa within the comfort of your home with shower areas that make a splash.

1. Glass is one of the preferred materials for shower areas because while it looks good, it also demarcates boundaries without adding visual interruptions. Complete with glass shower panels and doors, this the scaled-back and enclosed design can be used to create a steam shower too.

Tip: When setting up a glass shower stall, make sure the shower head faces away from the door instead of aiming right at it. This prevents seepage and leakage issues.

2. Outdoor shower areas are fun but not always practical for most home layouts. In this one, the designer gives a close-to-nature feel with just a glass wall separating the shower from the rest of the bathroom. The translucent glass skylight here lets in natural light while ensuring privacy. The plants bring a tropical look and complete the ambience of the verdant outdoors. The brass shower fixtures and sunken bath are redolent of exotic hamams in tropical gardens.

3. If you fancy yourself as nature’s child, then think of a shower with stone walls and the waterfall effect. This bathroom boasts a dramatic spring-gushing-in-a-cavern type of effect. The edgy wall is offset with clean-lined dark stone or slate tiles. The shower stool is a great addition if you need a seat or a place on which to to prop your foot.

4. In this picture, the shower stall goes the sombre and minimalist route along with sleek showers and faucets. The walk-in shower module features a square rain shower head and hand shower with steel finish. Since this is a narrow bathroom, the glass enclosure prevents water from splashing around.

5. Ensuite is a French term, which means to ‘form a suite’ and is used for a unit made up of a bedroom and a bathroom. The glass-encased shower space forms an extension to the bedroom. A sense of continuity is retained by using the same pattern of tiles in both the shower and bedroom. An overhead shower is fitted in the wooden ceiling, while a hand-held one is installed on the wall.

6. This charming shower minimises the hassles of structural separations with a free-standing steel enclosure and attached shower head. The round nozzle reiterates the semi-circular shape of the enclosure. While drawing the curtains does prevent water spillage, there’s also a drain in the middle of the floor to stop water from running into the rest of the bathroom.
Drury Design
7. Shower stalls with built-in benches are comfortable, practical and a functional addition that improve the bathing experience. This shower area is the epitome of relaxation, with six body sprays, as well as fixed and hand-held shower heads for a hydro massage. There is also a rain shower head and steam unit, which adds to the spa feel. The spacious bench is made of easy-to-clean porcelain tiles, which have also been used on the walls. The patterned mosaic tiles in the niche break the monotony of stone and introduce another textural pattern and colour scheme.

8. With no curbs or glass or wall partitions, this shower area enables you to simply “walk in”. It is wide and spacious enough to be able to contain the water splashes, and makes do without even a curb. The elongated towel rack opposite complements the shower fixtures and is a functional addition.
Studio William Hefner
9. Instead of going all out with marble, this bathroom makes a statement with curvy-edged marble walls for an open-ended shower booth. The shower nozzle is fitted at almost the same height as the partitioning marble wall to prevent water from splashing over.

10. In this bathroom, a raised white-tiled shower stall with a glass door has been especially designed within the bathroom. The glass doesn’t go right up to the ceiling, leaving a gap to let the moisture and steam out.
