You can add rain style shower heads to create a luxury shower enclosure.
Etched Glass Shower Panels
Etched glass can add beauty and elegance to any bathroom. An etched glass panel on your shower will provide you with the privacy you may prefer. Tile floors will add extra traction and will also provide you a huge choice in color and tile combinations. You can integrate border tiles to give this shower enclosure some depth and character as well as beautiful color. Finish off your enclosure by adding towel racks and soap dishes.
Shower with an Arched Entry
An arched shower entrance will give you the look of the old-world. Inside the shower a mixture of Calcatta marble and French limestone will help your shower gain a unique appeal.
