Looking to update your bathroom with a modern, luxurious shower? Contemporary design can be approached from many angles, but a bold approach involves dramatic color, nature-inspired design and clean lines. Let\u2019s get to work creating your own version of a bold contemporary shower.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Adding Contemporary Elements to Your Shower<\/span><\/h2>\n

Before we get into individual elements, we\u2019ll break down the foundation of your contemporary shower. Modern design can involve bright pops of color but overall embraces a clean, sleek look with contrasting neutral colors and natural materials. Part of the appeal is the attention to detail and quality inherent in a luxurious shower space.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bold Shower Walls<\/span><\/h3>\n

A truly versatile element, your shower walls could either be the first place the eye is drawn to or blend seamlessly with the rest of the bathroom. We recommend going all in with a bold, eye-catching shower wall. Want examples of naturally inspired contemporary shower walls? <\/span>CrossCut Dune<\/span><\/a> walls feature veining to mimic the beauty of natural stone, and <\/span>Cintilante Bluette<\/span><\/a> is a bold blue and white take on the Brazilian stone of the same name.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Modern Showerheads<\/span><\/h3>\n

Adding a <\/span>showerhead<\/span><\/a> that complements your modern aesthetic is crucial to maintaining the look throughout your bathroom. A faucet like the <\/span>HydroRail with Awaken Handshower<\/span><\/a> adds to the modern, sleek look. To up your shower\u2019s potential, bring in an ultra-modern <\/span>rainhead<\/span><\/a> overhead to simulate the feeling of fresh, warm summer rain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Clean Shower Base<\/span><\/h3>\n

To fully enjoy your luxurious shower experience, you need a durable foundation holding it all together. A low-profile <\/span>shower base<\/span><\/a> brings your other modern features in the shower to the forefront. The simple lines flow easily into the rest of your bathroom, creating an open, airy space.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Floating Shelves<\/span><\/h3>\n

There\u2019s a certain line to walk for <\/span>shelving<\/span><\/a> in modern shower spaces. You need storage solutions for your shower essentials, but you don\u2019t want a cluttered look that takes away from your clean aesthetic. Luckily, floating shelves neatly solve this problem. Their easy-install convenience means you can place them exactly where they\u2019ll work best for your in-shower needs and design sensibilities. You can also opt for more than one floating shelf if needed without compromising your desired look.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

Framed or Frameless Shower Door?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Your <\/span>shower door<\/span><\/a> is another area where you can reinforce your design theme. Framed doors are surrounded by an aluminum frame, making them slightly more stable. Frameless shower doors continue the uninterrupted lines often found in contemporary design. They cultivate an airy, open feeling that helps your shower flow into the rest of your bathroom instead of feeling closed off.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\n

More Contemporary Bathroom Elements<\/span><\/h2>\n

Tailor the rest of your bathroom to match your upgraded shower for a seamless, luxurious escape from your everyday. To continue the contemporary design beyond your shower, incorporate the same principles into other areas of the bathroom for a harmonious design.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Modern Sinks<\/span><\/h3>\n

Whether you choose a pedestal sink to save space or a bathroom vanity setup, there are many modern sink options to complement your shower design. Do you favor a minimalist sink with no frills or a glamorous statement piece? As long as your sink and shower match in tone and design, it\u2019s up to you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"focal<\/p>\n

Large, Well-Lit Mirrors\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Modern design often includes large <\/span>wall art<\/span><\/a>. Replace typical art with a large mirror over your sinks or even one anchored to the wall by the door. Add pendant lights overhead or stylish sconces on each side of the mirror for balance and light. Backlit or asymmetrical mirrors are on-trend choices that do the job well while adding style and presence to the bathroom at large.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Naturally Inspired Flooring<\/span><\/h3>\n

You can go big in many areas with this style, but flooring presents a good space to tone it down and allow other parts of the room to shine. Go for muted, natural elements like stone tile or engineered wood. A simple gray, black, tan or cream floor brings the rest of the room into focus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"sliding<\/p>\n

Contrasting Neutral Colors<\/span><\/h3>\n

Part of the appeal of modern style is its study in opposites: minimalist yet bold. Follow this sensibility to guide your color choices throughout the rest of your bathroom. You could go with a classic light blue and white or a more natural earth-toned color palette with dark browns and creams.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Use accent colors sparingly for a big splash: olive green looks wonderful with other earthy colors, and plants like ferns or snake plants are an amazing choice regardless of your color scheme.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
