Hello everyone,
Our bathroom is currently planned as follows:
In a 3D view, it looks roughly like this:

In the meantime, we came up with the idea of designing the bathroom differently:


Alternatively, with a full-height wall and a door opening:

The original floor plan might seem a bit straightforward.
The other layout hides the toilet.
The question here is whether a clear width of 90cm (35 inches) could be a bit tight?
The half-height wall variant might make it feel more open, but the downside is that the bathtub doesn’t line up with the half-height wall. The wall behind the toilet has to be 20cm (8 inches) deep because of the ventilation pipe in the corner. The bathtub is 80cm (31.5 inches) wide. Accordingly, the half-height wall would only be about 60cm (24 inches) long, which is not much space for the toilet. If you want to extend the wall, a 10–15cm (4–6 inches) casing around the bathtub would be needed, which would then narrow the space between the bathtub and the sink again.
The alternative with the full-height wall has the advantage that the bathtub wouldn’t require a casing. However, the area behind the wall might feel quite narrow and corridor-like (90 x 365 cm / 35 x 144 inches clear width).
What do you think?

How about the shower?It’s tucked away in the back corner behind the stairs… basically opposite the toilet.danixf schrieb:
I would have gone with a half-height wall with a tiled opening.What exactly do you mean by that? A niche in the half-height wall facing the bathtub?
Here is the half-height version without a built-in enclosure around the bathtub.
80 cm (31.5 inches) long half-height wall:
95 cm (37.4 inches) long half-height wall:

If a built-in enclosure is added around the bathtub, it is roughly 90–95 cm (35.4–37.4 inches) deep. On the opposite side, the sink with the pre-wall installation is about 65 cm (25.6 inches) deep. The room is 240 cm (94.5 inches) wide. Is 80–85 cm (31.5–33.5 inches) of passage not quite narrow?

Oh, I completely missed that on the floor plan.
I would go with the flush option. But that’s really just a matter of personal preference. Definitely avoid a frame around the bathtub.
80-85cm (31-33 inches) is already tight when multiple people are in the bathroom. I think you can manage, but it’s definitely avoidable here.
I’ve attached a photo of a storage niche to show what I mean. Of course, not in the same dimensions.
