Biscuits for all joints will work fine. Across side panels to top. Along the two rails at the top and at sides.
Be sure to have a helper, and perhaps some extra temporary stretchers that match the rails (for the bottom). That way you can clamp and square the sides first and put the top on last.
For a professional system, Kee Klamps might be what you are looking for:
For more DIY accessibility, black pipe is a likely candidate:

That ladder like thing in a bathroom area is a combination towel rack and heater. The heater is generally used to warm and/or dry the towels but can also lend to taking the chill off the bathroom.
It has been my experience to see those mostly in Europe and I cannot actually remember ever seeing one installed in the US but I am sure they are used here.
