Wet Rooms for Every Style and Size of Bathroom
Walk-in wet rooms are an inspired combination of luxury and practicality - the ultimate, 21st century eau zone
Walk-in wet rooms and super-sized showers are still a big buzz-word in the world of contemporary bathrooms. The overhead drenching, powerful body jets and feeling of unhindered, open space that you get in a wet room is something we might have tried in a spa or top-notch hotel and would love to recreate back home. The good news is, you don’t need a ballroom-sized space to fit in a wet room. Even small, awkward rooms will do, and there are fixtures and gadgets to suit every requirement. And if the bath has to go, it has to go…
Make it light and luxurious
There is no denying the out-and-out luxury of this wet room. The floor-to-ceiling slabs of pale grey marble and huge shower screen create a light, bright and invigorating space to be enjoyed at any time of day.

Rethink a small space
There is an effortless blend of old-fashioned simplicity and upbeat metro chic in this compact wet room. The industrial brick floor, metal cube basin and ceiling shower rose are discreet and unshowy, but spot-on for this look.

Wow with a wet area
Blink and you might almost miss it… This sheer, frameless glass screen is practically invisible against the muted ‘greige’ floor and wall tiles in this wet room. The wall-mounted, ‘floating’ vanity basin keeps up the streamlined styling.

Don’t dismiss traditional
Wet rooms are not just about super-modern fixtures and flashes of chrome. This cute bathroom has all the trappings of a period-style design (slipper bath, gold finishes, fancy taps et al), but still manages to squeeze in a wet room area with vintage shower rose to boot.

Double up on style
A his ’n’ hers wet room kitted out with two separate showers creates a serious spa-at-home vibe. Soft washes of light from the built-in spots simply add to the all-over relaxed atmosphere.

Create the illusion of space
You might not have considered using mirrors in a wet room, but look how clever and space-enhancing the illusion is here. And the breathtaking view goes on for miles and miles…

Light it up
Lighting is key in a small wet room, especially when surfaces are dark and dramatic. Choose a mix of ceiling lights and wall fixtures that create a wash of light for subtle light levels that produce a warm, cocooning effect.

Go natural
This wet room might be a little too austere for some tastes, but the blocky walls and rough-hewn tiles give it a distinct, modern-rustic style. The big slabs of multicoloured slate add masses of warmth and texture, making this as luxurious as any glass and chrome number.

Luxe it up
There is no denying the luxe factor here. While the smooth, egg-shaped bath might take centre stage, the vast, walk-through, marble-clad wet room offers a low-key opulence all of its own.
