Printed comments: After: The new curbless shower stall measures 5 feet, 8 inches by 2 feet, 8 inches. Perkins continued the same tiles she used on the bathroom floor into the shower. The floor slants slightly toward a linear drain in the back. This placement prevents wheels from getting stuck on the drain. The amount of grout between the small penny tiles allows for good grip, and Perkins added a nonslip sealant on the shower floor tiles. “Home health nurses recommended the vertical grab bar because it’s helpful for pivoting from the toilet into the shower,” Perkins says. “And the grab bar at the back helps when turning around.” She placed the shampoo niche on the wall across from the shower heads so that someone assisting with showering would have easy access to it. Because the shower eventually would need to fit two people, Perkins opted not to add a built-in bench, though a portable one can be used if needed. And rather than using doors for the enclosure, she installed a shower curtain bar. This will make the shower much easier to access, especially for two people.
Out of the way nice looking shower shelf that includes a wash cloth rack
Shower ledge as a simple alternative to a built in niche for shower supplies
Wood-look tile from Home Depot in the bathroom.
Floor to ceiling storage next to the sink
Bamboo cabinets and backlit mirror for a calming spa feel. They say that a hanging sink cabinet makes the room feel more open.
Skirted toilet for easy cleaning
Pullout storage so you can see everything
Accessible. Flooring is low slip but still large tiles which seems like it would be easier to clean. Nice arrangement if you want an accessible bathtub.
I like the bold color of the chest. If we have a relatively neutral bathroom, maybe we could include a piece of furniture for towels, etc. in a rich, vibrant color.
Looks compact but has everything
Looks like grab bar will fold up out of the way.
The sink -- set a little lower, really allows you to get in close, mirror on a swivel
Stone-look, large-format tiles
Accessible bathroom from another angle

Interesting comments included.
Not sure how practical this is, but interesting design to consider.
This looks like the most compact way to get an easy-access shower where an assistant could help you. You could use a shower chair or fold-down bench.
Can't quite figure this picture out, but it looks like the toilet might be inside the wet room on the right, separated by a half wall -- and maybe glass above? This deep, rather than wide, design looks like it could keep most of your bathroom dry, allow a curbless shower that's enclosed enough to stay warm. Not clear what that door is -- accordion-style something? If you could put the shower head on the other side, have glass over a half wall, and the option of a shower curtain between the half wall and left wall, you could have water control and privacy without a dividing door.
Another photo of the blue bathroom. Nice large square tiles -- a good compromise for tile look but less grout.
Fun bathroom. Somehow this patterned floor doesn't seem as dizzying as many bathroom tile floors with small patterns. I like the natural wood counter and accents -- if that countertop could be treated to stand up to staining make-ups, lots of moisture, etc.
I like the large wall tiles for easy cleaning, less grout to show mildew.

Accessibility
A different view of the shower behind the wood wall.
If we're ever in a larger house, this is a cool way to have a no-door shower. It looks wheelchair accessible if it's deep enough to turn the chair. At least you can go in one side and out the other.
I like the gray on the cabinets
Wheelchair - friendly bathroom door
I like this shade of gray tile. Also, the large mirror as part of a medicine cabinet with old styling.
Light wood stain on the vanity
Shiplap-look tiles
Room divider to shower. Nothing to step over into the shower.
