Choosing the right shower enclosure finishes is essential for blending the aesthetics of this element with those of the bathroom. Glass, profiles and colours must harmonise with the bathroom and reflect the style we have set ourselves. In this guide, we will analyse the different options available and the ideal colour combinations, showing how each choice can transform the shower enclosure into an elegant and distinctive element.
Glass: types and characteristics
Glass is the most visible element of the shower enclosure and plays a central role in our shower cubicle. There are options such as transparent glass, ideal for bright and open spaces. For those who want more privacy, frosted glass is available, while variants such as Europa grey, bronze or feathered add personality and privacy.
Glass with screen printing or segmented patterns is perfect for adding an original and coordinated touch to the bathroom. The choice of glass changes the overall look of the bathroom, helping to create different atmospheres.

Profiles: materials and finishes
The profiles define the style and complement the colour choices of the shower enclosure finishes. In all cases, the profiles are made of aluminium with different aesthetic finishes such as: polished, bronze, black, brushed gold or gunmetal grey. Those who prefer softer colours can opt for painted profiles such as matt white, cream, dove grey or grey.

Colour combinations between glass and profiles
The real strength of shower enclosure finishes lies in the combination of glass and profiles. A classic choice is transparent glass with polished or steel profiles, ideal for bright, neutral bathrooms.
For those who love a warm and sophisticated atmosphere, bronze glass combined with bronze profiles creates an elegant, majestic and timeless effect. Those who prefer modern styles can combine satin or grey glass with black or gunmetal profiles for a more appealing, industrial look.
For minimalist or Scandinavian bathrooms, decorated glass with white or cream-painted profiles maintains lightness and harmony.
Glass and profiles can be combined to create unique aesthetic solutions.

Current trends (+practical advice)
Current trends focus on personalisation and colour harmony. Anodised aluminium and painted finishes offer a wide range of style options.
For a coordinated bathroom, it is useful but not mandatory to match profiles and glass to taps and accessories: black, steel, brushed gunmetal and white are choices that reflect current trends.
In small spaces, on the other hand, transparent glass brightens and enlarges the room, even if the dimensions are very limited. Satin-finished or screen-printed glass allows for greater privacy and character throughout the bathroom.
