The shower screen of dreams that every interior stylist wants
It's all over Pinterest and Instagram
We'll admit, here at Ideal Home Towers, we get pretty excited about most aspects of home furnishing. But a shower screen? Surely there's nothing that amazing about a simple piece of glass? Well we thought so, until recently, when things like this started popping up on Instagram and Pinterest...

Not enough words indeed!

Enquire online: Liber8 10mm Black Grid Pattern Wetroom Panel, from £552, Roman
Lovely Liber8 takes the humble shower to fashion new heights. Available in five different sizes, from 757mm to 1157mm, the panel can be supported by rods attached to the ceiling or the the wall. Its crittall-style frame is perfect for a more traditional bathroom. But you can also make it look ultra contemporary by creating an entirely monochrome scheme. Large-scale marble tiles are the ultimate sophisticated backdrop, but if you're on a budget, ice-white metro tiles will work just as well.
'Our Black Grid Design is very popular in hotel bathrooms,' says David Osborne, Managing Director of Roman. 'Its striking and very on-trend design has also proved very popular at international exhibitions, so it was a must-add to our product collection.'
Roman isn't the only one offering a version of this stylish panel, either. Aston Matthews also has a version – albeit it's much pricier.
