We all view luxury differently. And what is fun about design is that you can tailor your appeal of luxury specifically to your space, regardless of if it’s commercial or residential. When planning out your luxury shower room, there are many stone and tile options to make your walk-in shower one you will never want to leave.

Delight Your Guests’ Senses

At a health club or spa, providing your guests with a luxury shower room will create a feeling of peace and rejuvenation, adding to their overall experience. Not everyone has the space or budget for a luxury shower room in their home, so spending time at a place with this level of luxury is even more enticing to wash away stress and worries.

There are various stone and tile options to make any luxury shower room truly standout. First, you will want to think about the experience you want your guests to have. Keeping soft, neutral tones and designs will appeal to a broader clientele opposed to designing a luxury walk in shower for your home that is all about your personal style. The 3D series is a ceramic wall tile that offers dimension through its flowing movements as to look like natural ripples from water in the sand. A tile this neutral and visually appealing will truly enhance a shower room. Texture is a great way to add emphasis to a space—for more ideas read Elevate Your Bathroom with Luxurious Textured Shower Tile.

In addition to texture, a nice shower seat enhances the environment for restfulness. Shower seats really stand out when created with a solid slab, like quartz. Quartz is durable, scratch resistant, and comes in many colors and variations so pairing with tile is seamless. Also, other accessories like towel hooks and proper lighting will make this up-scale bathroom setting complete.

Delight Your Senses

When adding a luxury shower room into your home, your design options are endless. Do you want a walk-in shower with no doors? Do you want a walk-in shower that also includes a tub? Do you want a steam shower for ultimate relaxation? Think about all of your needs and wants and start designing.

Creating a very large shower area that also includes a soaking tub makes for a peaceful, separate space from the remainder of the bathroom. Fashioning this large area with stone slab versus tile makes for a dramatically luxurious appeal. Bertoli quartz is white with bold grey veining which resembles marble and would create lovely walls for your shower space, while requiring minimal maintenance. It’s a great idea to consider what works best for your preferences and family lifestyle.

Steam showers are a wonderful way to enhance the luxury in your bathroom. Steam showers are very beneficial to your health in several ways such as to:

• Help reduce stress.
• Remove toxins from within your body.
• Help alleviate pain from arthritis and respiratory troubles.
• Improve circulation and cardiovascular health.
• Help clear pores for healthy skin.
• Aid in sleep.
• Assist in muscle recovery from exercise.

Sounds like a great addition! Rule number one is choosing the best tile for your steam shower. Ceramic or porcelain tile are your best option because they will not absorb moisture. The porcelain series provides a clean, modern look and comes in four neutral colors that would pair well with any style.

While some design preferences include patterned tile, others may include the beauty that comes from the simplicity of a tile. Then, of course, there is the option to pair them together. Regardless of which route you choose, Brillo ceramic wall tile is a simplistic, minimalistic tile that has a glazed finish and is suitable for many environments. Available in two colors, this tile would be great for a residential or commercial project.

Not only is it about the design, but there is some stone and tile that is better suited for a particular area or another.

Maintenance is another element worth strong consideration. Natural stone is porous so naturally there will be more care involved for the longevity and beauty of the stone, whereas ceramic and porcelain don’t require much more than simple wiping.
