A compact bath with corner shower
Both, in a medium room.
A shorter bath alongside a separate corner shower. It's the smallest room where a proper bath and a separate shower usually start to work.

What it is
A compact bath along one wall and a corner shower in another, with the basin and toilet between them.
Why people choose it
No stepping into the bath
A separate shower is easier to use every day than one over a bath.
Both at once
One person can bathe while another showers.
What to weigh up
Smaller of each
The bath is shorter and the shower more compact than in a bigger room.
Two wet areas
Two areas to waterproof and keep clean.
Getting it right
Save floor
A curved corner shower leaves more space in front of it.
Tie it together
Use the same tiles and metal finish across the bath and shower so the room feels calm.
Warm & natural: a wood vanity and a jute rug.
Clean & minimal: pale greys and chrome.
Classic & traditional: a checkerboard floor and a painted vanity.
Bold & colourful: deep green tiles and a terracotta floor.
Every room is different. These are starting points, and we confirm what fits at your home visit.
