Many people are now opting for sleek, freestanding bathtubs that deliver an airy, modern aesthetic. But that shift often leaves one question: where do you put your bath essentials?<\/p>\n<p>According to Normandy Designer <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/team\/becca-ruggiero\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Becca Ruggiero<\/a>, bathtub niches are stepping in as both a practical and stylish solution. \u201cNiches aren\u2019t just for showers anymore, they\u2019re incredibly useful around a <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/case_study\/modern-glam-bathroom-master-bathroom-new-layout-primary-suite\">freestanding bathtub<\/a>,&#8221;\u00a0Becca explains. \u201cInstead of balancing your bath products on the edge of the tub, or on a tub tray, you can integrate storage directly into the wall for a more integrated look.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Becca notes that many homeowners are moving away from bulky tub surrounds and decks to create a more open, flowing feel. \u201cWhether you\u2019re a dedicated bath-taker or just an occasional <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/wash-away-the-day-with-the-right-tub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">soaker<\/a>, people are choosing thinner-profile tubs for that minimal aesthetic,\u201d she says. \u201cThe only downside is where do you put all your bath salts or glass of wine? That\u2019s where a <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/customizing-shower-niche\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">niche<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/open-cabinets-in-bathroom\">shelf <\/a>can make all the difference.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In some cases, Becca and team get creative with the layout to make space for these features. \u201cWhen you remove a large <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/4-reasons-to-love-a-tub-deck-bathroom-remodel\">tub deck<\/a> in front of a window, it opens up the opportunity to build out the wall slightly,\u201d she explains. \u201cWe\u2019ll sometimes add just a few inches to create a ledge or niche for bath items, or even to highlight a unique tile or <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/bathroom-remodel\/four-ways-to-fill-your-tub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wall-mounted faucet<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-32643\" src=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/P9256011.jpg\" alt=\"Freestanding bathtub with decorative niche\" width=\"475\" height=\"616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/P9256011.jpg 1579w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/P9256011-231x300.jpg 231w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/P9256011-790x1024.jpg 790w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/P9256011-768x996.jpg 768w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/P9256011-1184x1536.jpg 1184w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/>These niches don\u2019t always have to hold toiletries, either. \u201cIn one project, we added a half wall beside the <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/sizing-up-a-square-bathtub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bathtub<\/a> that doubles as a spot for a TV and a glass of wine,\u201d Becca shares. \u201cIt\u2019s about designing the space around how you actually relax.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For another bathroom, Becca designed a double-sided niche, one serving the freestanding bathtub and another on the opposite side for the <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/bathroom-remodeling-enhancing-shower-niches-decorative-tile\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shower<\/a>. \u201cYou just have to be mindful about staggering their heights,\u201d she explains. \u201cBecause they share a wall, you can\u2019t place them in the same spot, but you can make them visually connect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s matching the shower niche or introducing a contrasting tile for texture and depth, Becca emphasizes that tub niches blend function with artistry. \u201cI\u2019ll often work with people who love two different <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/designing-with-colorful-tile\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tiles<\/a>,\u201d she adds. \u201cWe\u2019ll use one for the shower and one for the tub niche \u2014 they don\u2019t have to match perfectly, but they should complement each other for a cohesive, relaxing retreat.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to talk more about a primary bathroom remodel or any ideas you have for your home, reach out to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/team\/becca-ruggiero\">Becca<\/a>\u00a0to discuss more about your remodeling project.
