Create the Luxury Shower You Deserve
A luxurious shower is more than a place to get ready for the day. It is a personal retreat, a calming escape, and one of the most transformative upgrades you can make in your home. With thoughtful tile selections, high-quality materials, and a design that fits your style, you can turn an ordinary bathroom into a spa-inspired sanctuary.
At Duke’s Coastal Flooring, we help homeowners throughout Brunswick and St. Simons Island create custom shower designs that blend comfort, elegance, and lasting durability. If you are ready to elevate your bathroom, here is how to create the luxury shower you deserve.
Start with the Right Tile 
Tile is the foundation of any luxury shower, both in aesthetics and performance. The type of tile you choose will influence the style, maintenance, and overall feel of the space.
Porcelain Tile
Porcelain is one of the most popular choices for luxury showers because it offers premium durability, low maintenance, and a high-end look. It resists moisture extremely well, making it ideal for a humid environment.
Natural Stone
Materials like marble, travertine, and slate bring unmatched character and sophistication. Each piece of stone is unique, giving your shower a custom, elevated appearance. Stone requires proper sealing, but the payoff in beauty is worth it for many homeowners.
Glass Tile
Glass tile can brighten a shower and make it feel open and airy. It reflects light and adds a smooth, modern look that complements any design.
Whether you prefer sleek porcelain or stunning natural stone, Duke’s Coastal Flooring offers options that match every style and budget.
Choose a Statement Wall 
One of the easiest ways to give your shower a luxurious feel is by incorporating a statement wall. A bold tile pattern, a contrasting color, or a textured material can instantly enhance the look of the entire bathroom.
Great options for statement walls include:
- Vertical or horizontal stacked patterns
- Mosaic designs that act as artwork
- Stone-look tile for hotel-inspired elegance
- Herringbone or chevron layouts for added movement
A statement wall draws the eye and makes your shower feel curated and intentional.
Add Built-In Niches for Style and Function 
A luxury shower is not only beautifully designed but also practical. Built-in niches provide convenient storage for soaps, shampoos, and accessories without cluttering shelves or corners.
Niches can be tiled with:
- Matching tile for a seamless look
- A contrasting color for a stylish accent
- Decorative mosaics for a custom detail
This simple upgrade brings both convenience and visual interest.
Consider a Walk-In or Frameless Shower Design 
Open-concept shower designs continue to rise in popularity for their modern and spacious look. Removing barriers helps the bathroom feel larger and more breathable.
Walk-In Showers
Walk-in showers are perfect for creating a spa-like environment. Without a traditional shower door, the area feels expansive and beautifully integrated into the rest of the bathroom.
Frameless Glass Showers
Frameless glass offers a clear, sleek appearance that shows off your tile work. The lack of bulky metal frames allows light to move freely and gives your bathroom a clean, modern aesthetic.
These layouts pair perfectly with luxury tile and calm, neutral colors.
Upgrade to Premium Fixtures 
Tile sets the tone visually, but premium fixtures complete the experience. High-end materials and thoughtful selections elevate your shower from standard to luxurious.
Consider upgrading to:
- Rainfall showerheads for a relaxing experience
- Multi-function sprayers for adjustable comfort
- Matte black or brushed gold finishes for a sophisticated look
- Thermostatic valves that maintain consistent temperatures
These details make your shower feel refined and tailored to you.
Incorporate Bench Seating
A built-in bench is both practical and luxurious. It offers comfort while showering and adds a high-end touch seen in spa environments.
Benches can be tiled to match the shower walls or designed with a contrasting material for added interest. They also enhance safety, making them useful for multi-generational homes.
Use Lighting to Elevate the Atmosphere 
Lighting plays a major role in creating a luxurious shower. With the right combination of fixtures, your bathroom can feel warm, inviting, and visually stunning.
Ideas include:
- Soft LED lighting to highlight tile textures
- Recessed ceiling lights that illuminate the entire shower
- Accent lights for niches or shelving
- Dimmable lighting that allows you to create a calming spa environment
Natural light also enhances a shower’s beauty, so consider clear glass or larger windows where privacy allows.
Incorporate Heated Flooring
Heated tile flooring is a premium upgrade that makes your entire bathroom feel more luxurious. Stepping out of your shower onto warm tile brings comfort and spa-like relaxation to your daily routine.
Radiant heat is energy-efficient and pairs perfectly with tile floors for consistent warmth.
Choose a Soothing Color Palette
Color plays a big role in the relaxation and ambiance of your shower. Neutral tones like beige, white, charcoal, and soft blues create a calming environment. For a more dramatic aesthetic, rich stone textures or dark tiles add depth and elegance.
Duke’s Coastal Flooring can help you choose tile combinations that match your style and bring harmony to your shower design.
