Default Ideas & Opinions request

The non tap end of my bath is about 37cm from a buttress
and the buttress is about half the width of the bath.
But I've had what I think is a bright idea. This is to
build with 18mm ply a shelving partition type thing.
This will be made of 4 lengths of the plywood making a tall box section
about 37cm square to fit into the corner between bath and buttress.
In the 2 exposed sides I will cut paired rectangular holes. And these
paired holes will become cubby hole shelves accessible from both
adjacent sides.

My current finnishing choice is to tile the shelf spaces. Then cut
mahogany to 8 - 10mm thick boards and glue them to the plywood.
But this is where I am wavering. The mahogany (chosen because I have
made the bath panel with it) will be a dark red colour and I'm unsure of
what colour tiles to buy for the shelf spaces. So your opinion/views
would be welcome here.

The alternative finish would be mosaic tiles on the exterior.

Any better ideas out there?

Thanks.

Arthur
