Explore the 4 Best Shower Niche Ideas to Make Your Bathroom Exceptionally Beautiful

Every shower needs storage. The bottles and jars and tools that you use to make yourself look your best have to be stored somewhere. For the sleekest approach to bathroom storage, add built-in shelving to your shower. Recessed storage compartments are known as shower niches. With mosaic tile designs, a niche can be not only functional but also beautiful. To find inspiration for your next bathroom remodeling project, glean from this list of mosaic tile niche ideas. One look at these mosaic tile niches, and you'll be ready to start your next remodeling project today.

1. Develop Contrast by Selecting Different Shapes for the Tile and the Niche

One of the basic principles of design is contrast. This is the concept of using two different shapes, textures, colors, or other elements to draw attention and raise interest. Contrast is effective because it demands focus; your eye is pulled toward the element that stands out. Therefore, the point of contrast becomes the part of the design to which you pay attention.  

2. Match the Tile to the Glass for a Coordinating Look

If you stick to more traditional 12- by 24-inch dimensions for your shower niche, you will have plenty of space to add one or two shelves to your storage area. Glass is a popular material from which to make bathroom shelves. For one thing, since it is clear, it won't obstruct your view of mosaic tile niche designs. When the tiles are the focus of your shower, it is important to maintain the integrity of their design with unobtrusive shelving. Glass is easy to clean, and unlike metal shelving, it does not rust. And if you choose tempered glass, you can trust that it will be safe to use in your shower. Now although glass is transparent, it often has a green tint to it. This tint is particularly apparent along the edge, which is the most notable part of a niche shelf. The green color is a result of the iron oxide that is present in most glass.

3. Accent a Mosaic Tile Niche with a Border

One of the easiest ways to add emphasis to a design is to add a frame to it. Normally, frames are used to highlight those things that are most meaningful to us, such as photos, artwork and awards. However, in interior design, frames can serve as a standalone element that draws the eye in a particular direction to create a focal point for the space. To use mosaic tile niches as eye-catching elements, consider adding a border around the recessed shelving. Consider this particular bathroom design.

4. Create a Monochromatic Appearance with Consistent Tile

In interior design, a monochromatic color scheme is one in which various values and variations of the same hue are used as the basis of a room's decor. A monochromatic scheme can be used throughout the entire room to promote a feeling of relaxation, a background without much contrast can also be used as a way to make other elements of the design pop.

In this particular bathroom, the shower niche is noticeable, but it is in no way the focal point of the room. Because the niche features the same geometric pattern and neutral color scheme as the of the bathroom walls, the shelving does not draw your eye away from the more prominent features of the room. Instead, your focus goes exactly where the designer intends for it to; the first things that you notice are the deep purple flower, the large window that lets in natural light, and the high-contrast tile pattern on the floor. Which of these mosaic tile niche designs is most appealing to you? A bathroom has a practical use, but it shouldn't have to sacrifice aesthetics in pursuit of functionality. When tilework accents your niche, the shelving can be both useful and beautiful.
