Dream shower design isn’t just for reality TV shows or new home builds. Homeowners with older homes looking to modernize their space can benefit from custom glass enclosures too!
Wilmington, NC has a mix of homes from colonial to traditional to modern and each home should have a shower to suit it beyond function alone. One of the reasons homeowners love custom glass enclosures is because of their versatility. From layout to hardware finishes, there’s a way to design a dream shower that supports the function and style of your bathroom space and home. A custom shower makes for the ultimate personalized bathroom experience.
Many homes come with a standard build shower for the time. Most of these are traditional framed showers. They’re incredibly functional, but can sometimes take away from maximizing the space or flow of your bathroom’s layout. This is where a custom enclosure makes all the difference.
Layouts like corner showers can make your bathroom appear larger, without adding square footage. This is especially important for existing homes where a full remodel isn’t the focus. An inward opening inline shower or neo-angle showers are popular choices for those who want a larger shower feel without sacrificing bathroom space. Neo-angle showers can be made to fit even the most extreme dimensions and angles.
Custom glass showers have various glass options and privacy features, so you can have just the right balance of light and privacy. No more having to choose between hard to clean shower curtains. With glass shower doors, your privacy preference comes built in.
Many glass shower enclosures feature clear glass, perfect for maximizing light and visibility. Add more privacy with a frosted privacy screen.
If you prefer privacy over style, then overall frosted glass is the way to go. It’s a tried and true classic solution. Rain designs, tints, and textured glass achieve the same purpose but with a twist of creativity.
Choosing hardware finishes is typically one of the last steps of shower design, but it shouldn’t be taken lightly. Don’t rush this step along, otherwise you’ll risk having a beautiful enclosure with mediocre hardware.
Coordinating your hardware finishes and fixtures can give your custom glass enclosure and overall bathroom space that wow factor. Modern bathrooms look even more sleek with hardware finishes like matte black. Brushed nickel can be both modern or traditional. What matters most is not just that you’ve chosen a new look for your shower, but that the shower components and existing bathroom elements mesh.
