Outdoor Showers That Bring the Outside In
Want to add a little resort living to your home? Outdoor showers are popular extensions of indoor bathrooms, offering a real luxury outdoor experience.
Popular outdoor shower ideas include a connection to an adjoining pool or spa, space to sit down and dress, accomodations for enjoying a morning coffee or other beverage, and walls or screens that offer privacy yet aren't positioned to block views of the larger outdoor space.
Get some ideas for your outdoor shower from the following examples, such as this spacious contemporary bathroom design by Slifer Designs featuring a sleek freestanding tub and stainless double vanity, and of course an outdoor shower just a few steps beyond floor-to-ceiling sliding doors. A natural stone wall offers privacy and an open view.
Access from Inside and Out
A large sliding door opens this bathroom to the outdoors, creating a serene place to relax and unwind after a rejuvenating shower.
Access both from the homeowner's bathroom as well as from the outdoor space can make an outdoor shower perfect for a calming alfresco shower as well as simply washing off after a day of outdoor activities (like a dip in the pool).
Add an Outdoor Tub, Too
Tropical plants create a green canopy above this outdoor tub. The shower, clad in luxurious gray mosaic tile, is accessed via a large sliding glass door.
