Bathroom Update: Shower Enclosures That Are Cool and Classy
Whether chic curtain, contemporary black-framed glass or frosted panel, keep splashes at bay with one of the latest shower enclosure designs
It is easy to use glass in showers but there is always the problem of keeping the glass looking new and the fittings looking smart. Here are a few ideas for screens and enclosures that revive, refresh and add class to your bathroom.
The single pane is a great option when you already have a busy backdrop to your bathroom.
It is also perfect for small spaces as the line of sight is not interrupted, making the room appear larger.
Black frames
Black frames are making a big impact on bathrooms. Frames add stability to the glass, and so can often cost you less.

Black frames can also create the illusion of a window frame with the glass reflecting the bathroom interior. It is not common knowledge, but frames can be powdercoated to match most colours.
Tiled enclosure

Technology has improved and if you can find a shower curtain fabric that has weight to hang and not blow around, you could save yourself a lot of money.

Fully enclosed
Becoming more popular, steam rooms can come in all shapes and sizes or you can have one customised. If you don’t want the steam room, consider built-in seats in your shower so you can really sit back and relax.

The outdoor shower

No waterproofing issues here! Water can fall through your deck like it would on a rainy day. This outdoor shower would be terrific if you needed the space to cool down after being in the sun or to clean pets or the golf clubs.
