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

Looks good. I would replace the glass shower door with a glass panel and omit the right wall of the shower instead. You can then hang your towels on the slanted wall (right at the shower exit), or where else would you put them?

So, the shower is 1.4 x 1 meter (4.6 x 3.3 feet) with a low-profile shower tray, and there is a sliding door at the front. We quite like this.

Do you mean to completely remove the wall on the right side and just leave it open? That would be possible, but water should not splash out. However, it would be significantly cheaper.

Best regards

Hmm, what do you mean exactly by diagonal? I was referring to the two long sides in the middle of the bathtub, which basically run parallel to your legs when sitting in the tub.
I think the thigh measurement was about 1.40 meters (4 ft 7 in).

Of course, it comes down to personal preference. I’m glad I no longer have a door on my shower that I also have to clean.

Yes, leave it out and just keep it open. If you have a good drain, you should only get a few splashes outside the shower tray.

Yes and yes.

And should the shower head and lever also be on the 1.4m (4.6 feet) side? Wouldn't they then have to be around the corner on the wall next to the bathtub?

Yes, that would be better.
