This particular shower has some very cool details. First off the niche’ is something I envisioned and built on the fly as I progressed up the wall, I wanted lots of depth, and veiny wraps.
The seat I wanted a “book matched” look, and have everything wrap over and around. Stuck a leg shaving shelf in there as well. All the black solids are Quartz with a little fleck of light silver. With the pan tile, I love the invisible drains, they make the shower floor flow better and you don’t have an ugly drain plate in the center of your floor. This particular one got a custom paint job, mainly because the fixtures in the shower are a black finish and I didn’t want to see the chrome shining through the area around the tileable top of the drain.
Everything has color matched 100% silicone in all changes of planes, the shower had a 18-20 hr water test, all cement board taped, mudded, & waterproofed, sand and cement prepitch, 40mil rubber liner, (tested&passed) final float of sand and cement. Done old school because you can’t show me a schluter, WEDI, prova, or any other “foam” shower over 20yrs old. 😉
Old school always beats new school.
