Hello everyone,
our house construction is progressing, and I wanted to share the current layout of the bathroom on the upper floor and ask for comments or suggestions for improvement.
The original idea was to have two separate washbasins/mirrors. The floor plan can no longer be changed, except the bathroom width can possibly be extended to 3 m (10 feet). There are no sloped ceilings.
Due to the narrow, elongated layout, I find it difficult to create space for two washbasins...
The long side is 5 m (16 feet), the narrow side is 2.76 m (9 feet).
Thank you very much for your feedback.
Regards,
Mathias

Do both the shower and the bathtub need to drain there? I’m genuinely interested in that solution (as a layperson).Nowadays, this can also be installed within the screed, basically running across it.
Yes, that would be one option, which I have also considered before... but not all the way through.
So obviously, the shower could be about 100x140cm (40x55 inches) or something like that, and the bathtub placed lengthwise against the wall.
But what do you have in mind when you say the washbasin by the window? On the 4-meter (13-foot) wall then?
The toilet should remain unchanged?

As I said before: just my opinion as a non-expert.

Since the shower should have some depth, you’ll need to figure out where the shower entrance works best.
I checked again: if you want a built-in shower without a square shower tray, it also makes sense to create a corner area at the top right for a generous showering space with a shelf, and put the bathtub next to the toilet… or leave the washbasin there and place the bathtub along the straight wall?!

Just try it out: draw it up and move the elements around.
One person might find natural light more important, another prefers a short way to the toilet, and someone else can’t imagine the toilet next to the bathtub.
However, I would make sure it doesn’t look like everything was just thrown in—there should be a clear layout.
I have another idea, I’ll sketch it out...
