Tiny Home Shower Ideas
In a tiny house, showers can be sidelined to the extent of not being recognized as a separate entity. In fact, most tiny house interiors dedicate little to no attention to this extremely functional space. They are usually just a sad attachment of the bathroom which is already competing (and losing) for architectural style. However, you can use a ton of creative inspiration to make your tiny shower a valuable and aesthetic corner of the house. We have shared 10 super innovative and aesthetic tiny home shower ideas below.
1. Introduce a frameless glass shower to your tiny bathroom
If you are a fan of glass shower stalls but are obviously short of space in your tiny house, a great way to design your tiny house shower is by giving it a frameless door. This will keep the style intact, adding a textural look to your glass shower stall but will save the berth opening and closing the actual door would take!
2. Complement the rustic theme with a wooden tub
We have talked about natural accents and rustic elements before, mainly because they are such a trendy vibe in tiny houses. If you have wooden panels and planks in any other part of your tiny bathroom, adding a wood tub for your daily baths will just add the artistic touch your tiny shower interior needs!
3. Consider Shiplap walls
Another excellent approach to designing your tiny shower can be to use shiplap walls. They go extremely well with wooden storage, and their lighter color gives an illusion of roominess. They are also a great shower interior idea for outdoorsy feels. Just remember to waterproof your walls with a marine-grade wood sealer.
4. Fancy a wet room?
A wet room can do the trick if you are working with a really tiny space and want to fit your toilet and shower within 9 square feet. Wet rooms are an extremely popular shower interior idea for tiny homes. They can fit a toilet seat and shower stall quite close to each other – the only drawback is everything in your bathroom getting wet every time you take a shower.
5. Copper fixtures and subway tiles – an iconic combination
If you are trying to add some artistic depth and texture to your tiny bathroom – you can practice your creative freedom on the walls and fixtures to design your tiny house shower. You can go for something quite unique such as copper fixtures in the shower stall, with the walls lined with subway tiles. This combination is sure to turn some heads.
6. Build a Curved Corner Shower Stall
An extremely space-efficient shower interior idea is to install a curved corner shower stall or bathtub in your tiny house. You will be putting your otherwise unusable corner to great use and will have quite a bit of middle space to welcome other items like a bathroom vanity, extra storage and more.
While a corner bathtub is equally efficient, a glass-walled shower stall will be an ideal choice if your toilet seat is nearby. The walls around your shower stall will prevent everything else from getting wet whenever you take a shower.
7. Experiment with a vertical garden wall
If you are into nature and your tiny house is adorned with a couple of hanging plants here and there, a vertical garden wall in your shower is a brilliant way to extend the concept throughout your tiny house. Vertical garden plants save space while adding the perfect sense of architectural style indoors.
8. A shower and sink combo to save the space
You may not have heard of this one, but it is an absolutely intelligent idea to design your tiny house shower. You can get a floating sink installed right inside the shower stall, preferably at a corner. It may feel weird initially to wash your hands in the same space as when you take a shower, but once you get used to it, you can enjoy compliments from all your guests on this space-efficient idea.
9. Shower under the sky
Have we talked about natural light yet? We guess not. Natural light from any source can make your tiny bathroom look spacious and bright. When you walk into your shower in the morning, it will elevate your mood too! If nothing else, you should have a small window at the top of your tiny bathroom.
A supremely aesthetic idea when designing your tiny shower is to have a slab of glass ceiling right above it. This does not only mean that sunlight will be showering over your head in the morning, but you will also be showering under a blanket of stars at night!
10. Use black for a luxurious touch
Like we mentioned above, you have the most creative freedom when designing the walls and selecting accessories for your tiny house bathroom. Using black tiles for the walls of your shower stall can add a luxurious touch to create quite the contrast with your minimalistic lifestyle. Adding gold or copper fixtures will just be a cherry on the top.
Our Final Thoughts
Designing your tiny shower can seem challenging due to the limited space a tiny house bathroom usually gets. There are always more important rooms and furnishings to add to the point that your shower may never get the spotlight. However, with the aesthetic yet intelligent tiny home shower ideas we shared above, you can add an artistic touch to the tiniest of small house showers. We hope you are able to incorporate one or more of these into your tiny house bathroom.
