Hello everyone,
We have planned our bathroom and are now facing a “problem.” As shown in the picture, we want to install a trapezoidal bathtub. However, part of it extends in front of a floor-to-ceiling window (the upper section can be opened, the lower part is fixed).
The question is how we can cover the area in front of the window. Does anyone have any ideas?
Currently, we are considering using tiles at the front, but nothing is decided yet. We are actually looking for a uniform cladding solution.
Thank you in advance for your help.

No, it is actually a new build.Oh dear. Do I also see two doors there? Plus two windows? And then the toilet positioned as an eye-catcher from both door entrances? You should consider posting your house design in the floor plan forum – there’s definitely room for improvement.

but rather about the options for cladding the bathtub.Since I want to avoid an unattractive appearance from the outside—and that tends to get worse with each type of cladding—I would rather frosted glass or similar for the window. Then the type of cladding doesn’t matter. The main thing is to keep it as bright/white as possible.T
Traube34828 Jan 2021 11:54Did I forget to mention that the lower part of the window is frosted? So, the appearance from the outside is not the issue. I am more concerned about the type of cladding and which material would be recommended.
