For a gentle and luxurious showering experience, look no further than a rain shower. Although rain shower heads do not come with as much water pressure as a standard shower head, they are ideal for allowing water to flow consistently all over the body. Rain showers offer a lighter touch that is like standing under a relaxing waterfall with soft and delicate spray patterns.
Unlike the cylindrical or cone shape of a traditional shower head, a rain shower from ceiling will often come in a modern, streamlined design with an elegant wide and flat head. Some removable rain heads are attached to a sleek shower wall bar, while many shower rain kits will be paired with additional accessories like hand showers for targeted cleaning. Check out the following rain shower ideas to bring the feeling of a spa into your own bathroom.

Interior designer Huong Vu offers her insight into the design of a bathroom where the baseboard is the unsung hero. She points out, “The bathroom’s tall, minimally designed baseboard acts as an elegant frame, seamlessly integrating the room’s elements.” This understated yet impactful design element is a key factor in creating a cohesive and polished look.
Taking Huong’s observations into account, this bathroom exemplifies how a baseboard can be more than just a structural necessity. The tall white baseboards with a stepped edge, as seen in this bathroom, are purposefully minimalistic. Their simplicity allows for a seamless integration with the room’s overall aesthetic, without competing with the more prominent design elements such as the large glass walk-in shower or the white vanity with gold hardware.

Annuska Menoita, a distinguished interior designer, emphasizes the impact of large-format tiles in enhancing bathroom spaces. “In one of my rural projects, using large-format tiles throughout the bathroom—including the walls, floors, and niche—created a cohesive and visually striking environment,” she explains. This approach not only unified the interior but also magnificently framed the natural vista through the main window, making the greenery outside a focal point of the design.
Moreover, Annuska points out the practical benefits of including a niche in the shower design. “A niche offers a sleek and organized storage solution, keeping your essentials within reach,” she notes. Additionally, she highlights the versatility of lower niches, which can cleverly double as footrests, enhancing both functionality and comfort in the shower space.
