Why are shower risers not in the corner.
Discussion
Mainly because people inevitably stand facing the shower head when showering, if you put the shower in corner of a square enclosure all people would do is turn 45deg to stand in front of it, nothing to gain really, plus it look s odd, and very few, if any showers are specifically made to go into a corner, would be a nightmare to plumb up too!

I'm an oddity, then, as I'm almost exclusively a back-to-the-shower kind of guy.There you have it.

I deliberately fitted my shower controls in the corner, next to the door. Mostly that was to avoid getting a load of cold water on my arm when I switched the shower on, but it does mean there's more room to move about I guess.
I always fit the controls out of the way of the head when possible , it's just common sense these days with separate controls , but most people either remember their mums house or the lazy plumber does the littlest amount of pipe work possible .
