If you’re going to have a luxurious, gorgeous, spa-like shower, you’re going to need a niche ... or two ;-)

Because who wants to see all those messy bath products spilling out everywhere? I know I sure don't!

Niches can be made to feel like a small piece of art in an otherwise large, empty space. And when they're featured in a shower -- specifically, a BIG SHOWER -- their seemingly subtle presence will suddenly become much bolder, much more beautiful.

A shower niche is that one area where it's acceptable for it to be over-wrought, over-detailed and over-thought out, because it's sole purpose isn't to just hold your stuff.

It's responsible for so much more...

It can be there to catch your eye.

To present a little style and flair.

To accentuate the area's overall design.

To repeat a special material or pattern.

Or to just make a statement.

And those are some big jobs!

For a niche.
