9. Nifty Niches
This Chicago-area bathroom by Plain & Posh has a transfixing light and bright appearance. But it’s the clever storage niches on a half wall in the shower that really grab attention. The top two recesses offer space for shower products of various sizes, and a small niche near the bottom provides a spot for propping a foot while shaving one’s legs. A hook on the half wall can keep a towel handy just outside the shower.

Bright blue wall tile and swirling gray floor tile give this Chevy Chase, Maryland, bathroom by Teass \ Warren Architects a cloudy-day appearance, albeit perhaps one with a bit more sunshine than the previous bathroom.
