Hi!

What do you think about this master bathroom layout?

We didn’t really want the shower to be so hidden since we plan to outfit it in a high-quality and stylish way. It would be nice if it could be more visible, not just for showering. But during the plumbing planning, we were advised to keep it like this (because of the water pipes).

What’s your opinion? Or does anyone have an idea on how to create more visibility into the shower?

The two washbasins are marked incorrectly. We will only use one washbasin (1m wide (39 inches)). Our idea is to move the bathtub to where the washbasins are currently shown and place the washbasin on the right wall instead. We want the bathtub to have a prominent spot in the room instead of being “in the corner” when we bathe.

Currently planned components:
Toilet: Duravit Happy D.2 extended version, 25500900001

Washbasin: Villeroy & Boch Venticello 1000x500mm (39x20 inches), 4104ALR1

Bathtub: still considering either Villeroy & Boch Squaro Edge 12 Combipool Invisible (UIP190SQE2B1V96) or a Kaldewei Conoduo, both 190x90cm (75x35 inches) (235200010001)

Shower:
Villeroy & Boch shower tray Futurion or Squaro Infinity
Hansgrohe Axor ShowerSolutions thermostat module Select 530 / 90 for 3 outlets, 18356000
Hansgrohe Axor Shower Solutions 350 1jet overhead shower with ceiling connection, chrome, 26035000
Keuco meTime_spa waterfall showerhead, 59982010000
Hansgrohe Axor Starck 1jet handheld shower, chrome, 10531000

Looking forward to your feedback!

Just a quick note:
Is the toilet side facing the street? And how high is the window there...
We have the same setup, it doesn't bother me, but some visitors are quite shocked when they can see out from the toilet...
However, we haven't moved in yet, and the lower part of the window will be frosted with a film.

The window opens sideways. Of course, the panes are frosted! I would never consider installing a window next to the toilet without frosting – no matter which way the window opens.

Now you have the tight space between the shower and the sink every time you want to get to the bathtub:


Floor plan of a bathroom (14.14 m² (152 sq ft)) with bathtub on the left, sink, door opening, red walls.


I still believe a shower width of 1 meter (39 inches) is more than enough.
By the way, I’m really glad we chose a glass wall for the shower. Everything else feels really claustrophobic. I’d rather replace the glass when it’s worn out.

I would also switch the shower and bathtub back. This way, the wet area is located right at the entrance of the bathroom in front of the shower, meaning everyone has to pass through it.

I am no longer exchanging anything. Shortening the shower would still be possible during the shell construction phase.

I would make the shower narrower. 1m or a maximum of 1.1m (3.3 ft or 3.6 ft), so the walkway becomes wider, and in my opinion, a wider shower does not provide any additional comfort. If it remains a walk-in shower, I would rather try to make it 20cm (8 inches) longer. Alternatively, you can easily add a glass door later if you notice that the bathroom floods every time.
