A search of google groups turned up this previous thread...
To fit in with my wall and floor tiles, I would need to find a suitable 'natural stone' style of mosaic, or perhaps a plain glass type, which might work. However, I'm not keen on mosaics and I'm worried they might spoil the otherwise clean lines I have maintained throughout the rest of the design.
As for using uPVC, to hide the stud work, and replicate the curavture of the shower tray directly above, I think that by adding another layer of "white", as deep again as the tray face, would be too much and would make the whole thing look 'bottom-heavy', giving the appearance of the shower tray being about 8-10" deep, if you know what I mean?
So, as asked by the original OP, can anyone suggest any inspired alternatives?
One I had was to use some stainless steel, but again, this might be too big a strip of that material, and the result may still be overpowering!
thanks for any ideas.
deano.
