@chrisbmx116 Seen this done in posh houses.
Options.
Ive been Principal Designer in a ton of posh refurbs around marble arch. One chap from Saudi insisted on a minimalist shower room (6mx4m), essentially a steel frame with marble panels, a soffit which was a complete 24m sq shower head! Water was pumped out. Any way. The panel with the door in was a sheet of glass that frosted when you got in (privacy). He insisted the door opened inwards (it was a bloody massive door, glass and heavy) I made the point that ythis was silly and someone would get stuck, dot do it, but got the "Its my money routine". So door opens inwards. Ok put a motor assist on it. "nope", not minimalist. Right. A great big fuck off handle at least then. Oh no. The handle ended up being a 3cm cube piece of glass stuck on. I got my prof indemnity letter in saying its a shit idea. Long story short, he moves in and gets stuck in the shower to be found by the cleaner (hehehe). Then tries to sue the developer. Nice. Forgot. He also had a disco light system built behind the marble. Classy. I could go on.
Wet rooms are ace but fitting them into Victorian homes is tough and requires compromise.
Best wetroom ive seen is the Chairman of Wanda the Chinese company. Got raised in a conference call argument with the guy (3rd richest man in china). That's another story...
