There are few bathroom amenities more luxurious than a walk-in shower. Marked by a glass wall or enclosure that’s separate from a tub and easy to access, they’re incredibly practical and versatile—not to mention aesthetically pleasing. “Architecturally speaking, a walk-in shower can ‘disappear’ and [make a space feel] more open,” says Matt Baran, founder of Baran Studio Architecture. “It’s useful when trying to capture views through multiple layers of space and in increasing the amount of light available to the bathroom.”
