Trying to add recessed cut-out (niche) in shower wall
Hi Everyone,

I making a drawing of a bathroom for a remodel project and want to add a recessed cut-out or niche in the shower wall.

I have already searched the forum and cannot find anything that explains how to do this. I did see a post from someone a few years ago who used the service hatch, but this does not create only a cut-out, but rather puts a complete hole in the wall. Obviously not something that helps me accomplish what I'm trying to do at all. Also, I have attempted to use the invisible box that was mentioned previously, but this also adds a complete hole in the wall. These are so common in bathrooms for the past several years, I cannot imagine nobody else would have found something like this useful.

Does anyone know how this can be achieved?

Thank you!
