Designers Always Choose This One Type of Shower Glass for Elevated Detail and Added Practicality

A shower room with beige walls, a free standing bath, and a shower with fluted panels.

When renovating a bathroom, the specifics of the shower door might not be at the top of your priorities, but it's a detail that plays a larger role than you think. Even if you do spare a thought to the shape and frame of your shower panels, the type of glass you use is likely to be an afterthought, but designers all agree there's one specific type that instantly gives your space a more elevated look.

The answer? Fluted glass. The trend for this frosted, privacy glass effect is certainly not new to the design scene, but it's notably a designer favorite for showers. Take a glimpse at any contemporary luxury bathroom and you're highly likely to see this glass detail crop up somewhere, even if it's not used for the shower panels themselves. Not only does the textured effect have the practical benefit of added privacy, but it also offers elegant clean lines for a unique aesthetic. Here, we talk to experts to find out why this shower trend is the best choice for your next bathroom remodel.
