Master Bathroom with Glass Shower & Vessel Basin

It is a rectangular counter-top vessel basin that sits on top of a stone counter rather than dropping into it. The tap is wall-mounted, which keeps the counter surface clear and makes wiping around the basin easier. A vessel basin gives the vanity a cleaner, more finished look, though sitting proud of the counter it does throw a little more splash than a sunken bowl.

The walls carry a soft grey finish broken up with slim recessed panel grooves, so they get some quiet structure instead of looking like flat plaster. The shower side is clad in large grey tiles. Keeping one tone across both surfaces makes the narrow room feel calmer and longer. It is a restrained backdrop that lets the white basin and the mirror frame stand out.

Yes. A frosted window sits inside the shower enclosure, letting in daylight while keeping privacy. Because the divider is glass, that light reaches the vanity too rather than staying trapped in the shower. Recessed ceiling spotlights and a light inside the shower cover the rest, so the room works after dark. Frosted glass is the sensible call here since a clear pane would leave the shower exposed.

The mirror is tall and framed in a dark tone that matches the vanity, and it runs well above eye level. In a narrow bathroom a large mirror is the simplest way to make the space feel wider, because it doubles the visible wall and bounces the daylight around. The frame stops it looking like a plain builder mirror and ties it back to the wood cabinet below.

It looks sharp and clears the counter for a wall tap, but there is a trade-off. Sitting on top of the counter, the rim is higher, so it suits adults more than small children, and water tends to gather where the basin meets the stone. A quick wipe around the base keeps it clean. If you want the lowest upkeep, an under-counter basin sits flush and is easier to sweep water into.

It can, within reason. The wet-dry split needs enough length to give the shower its own glass box, so a very small bathroom might use a single glass screen instead of a full enclosure. The wall-hung WC and floating vanity both free up floor, which helps a tight room feel bigger and makes cleaning underneath simple. Keeping one wall colour, as here, is the other trick for a compact bath.

Waterproofing and plumbing come first and are non-negotiable, especially for a concealed mixer and wall-hung WC that hide their tanks in the wall. Tiling and the glass enclosure are the next big items, since toughened glass and neat tile cutting both add labour. The vanity is custom carpentry. Fittings like the rain shower and taps then swing the figure, so pick the brand tier before finalising the budget.
