A marble-effect shower room with an electric shower
Marble-effect panels floor to ceiling, a framed glass enclosure with the window inside it, an electric shower and a chrome towel radiator.
The room from the door. Framed glass enclosure on the left, marble-effect panels on every wall and a chrome towel radiator.
A compact shower room with one awkward feature: the window is inside the shower. The room was panelled in white marble-effect panels, including all the way round the window reveal, and a framed glass enclosure was fitted over a white tray with an electric shower on a riser rail. A chrome towel radiator and a WC complete the room, on wood-effect flooring.

A window inside the shower
A window in a shower is one of the hardest things to keep dry. Water sits on the sill, gets into the corners of the reveal, and a painted or tiled reveal starts to go within a year or two.
Here the panels are carried right round the reveal and onto the sill, with trims on the edges, so the whole window opening is one wipe-clean surface. The water has nowhere to soak in.
Why an electric shower
An electric shower heats its own water from the cold main as it runs. It does not draw on the boiler or a hot water cylinder, so there is always a shower even when the boiler is off or the tank has run out.
That makes it a sensible choice for a second shower, or in a house where the hot water is already doing a lot of work.
