17 Modern Shower Bench Ideas to Inspire Your Bathroom Design

November 6, 2023

Whether you’re designing a sleek new open shower or updating an older tub area, adding a shower bench can offer a useful and inviting accent to a home’s bathroom design. Shower benches provide a convenient place to sit while shaving your legs, allow seniors and those with limited mobility to enjoy a refreshing shower more comfortably and safely, and create a spa-like luxury in high-end walk-in showers.

I’m excited to share some elegant, practical, and surprisingly affordable shower bench design ideas to enhance your shower in style. We’ll look at built-in tile and teak benches for seamless integration into new and remodeled bathrooms, freestanding benches in wood and metal to easily incorporate into existing showers, and even creative DIY options if you’re handy and want to customize the perfect bench.

With the right design, your new shower seat can offer an extra splash of form and function. Read on for gorgeous inspiration to elevate your bathing experience!
