One of the most important details when designing your bathroom is choosing the perfect shape and style for your shower. The right shower enclosure can add spa-like luxury and opulence to your bathroom, whether you choose a shower design that is framed or frameless. European-style frameless glass shower enclosures are among the most popular because of their sleek, modern look. Traditional framed glass shower enclosures are a lower-cost option, but can be just as stylish and luxurious by adding customized frames for a modern, sleek look.
Because one of the first things people notice after entering your bathroom is your bath enclosure, choose an option that works well for your space – and your style. Some unique, updated options for shower enclosures include:
- European-style frameless glass shower enclosures
- Framed glass enclosures
- Tile and glass enclosures
- Textured glass enclosures
- Bathtub enclosures
- Sliding enclosures
- Glass block showers
- Aluminum and glass shower enclosures
Once you have chosen a style, don’t skimp on customization. Glass enclosures provide limitless possibilities for creativity – work in personal touches like frosted glass, add etched designs or even add some color with tinted glass.
When choosing between frameless and framed enclosures, consider a few differences and weigh them against your budget, space considerations and style preferences. Frameless enclosures offer endless options for custom design, but the main advantage with frameless glass is its flexibility and versatility. Frameless glass enclosures complement any style – from simple and elegant to modern and chic. Want to make it as easy to clean as it is on the eyes? Simply add a baked on finish and the glass will actually repel soap scum and protect against water spots.
For a more traditional approach, framed glass enclosures also offer a wide variety of options. Think outside the polished brass look – consider adding a simple chrome finish for a modern, updated look, or try an oil-rubbed-bronze frame for a finish that’s elegant and sophisticated. When it comes to the style and versatility of framed glass enclosures, the classics never go out of style – especially when refreshed with updated finishes and tiles. Best of all, new or updated framed enclosures are among the most affordable, leaving you the option to splurge on other parts of your bathroom.
