A wet room is a fully waterproofed, open-plan bathroom where the shower area sits level
with the floor. This design is becoming increasingly popular in Australian homes for its
sleek look and easy maintenance.
Wet rooms thrive on simplicity and flow. Removing shower screens or trays creates a
seamless layout that feels spacious. For safety, install non-slip tiles and ensure proper
drainage with a subtle floor slope toward a linear drain. Always use a licensed
waterproofing specialist to meet Australian standards.
Keep the look minimal with wall-mounted vanities, concealed cisterns, and frameless glass
panels. Add luxury through rainfall showerheads, underfloor heating, or natural finishes
such as stone and timber.
Beyond aesthetics, wet rooms are also accessible and practical — ideal for households
with older adults or mobility concerns. The open layout makes cleaning easier while
maintaining a timeless, elegant feel.
