Dear forum,
We have just purchased a new apartment that is part of a newly built complex. Unfortunately, we can’t seem to find the perfect bathroom layout. At the moment, it feels like we have too much space in the center and, instead, a small shower.
Do you have any suggestions? The window on the right side, as well as the balcony door and the entrance door, are fixed (the window definitely, the doors with minimal flexibility) – the rest is still open for planning.
Thank you for your ideas!
Best regards,
Stefan

And what if the woman has the broader shoulders ;-) But yes, it’s a bit tight regardless of the people’s widths. No, it is NOT regardless of the people’s widths. It is tight.

Misunderstanding! I meant that it could be a bit tight even for fairly slim people – not just for broader ones. All clear? You didn’t say anything different.
Everything was clear; ypg just "misread" it.

Overall, a nice room and a nice bathroom. I would be concerned about the 53cm (21 inches) passage to the shower. Measure the width of the man (shoulder to shoulder). It might only be possible to enter it sideways.Our "T" is effectively 71cm (28 inches) each. The rough opening was, I believe, 75cm (30 inches). I already consider that not very generous, and it also looks rather tight visually. With a 53cm (21 inches) rough opening, you probably don’t even get 50cm (20 inches) of clear space in reality. That will really be very borderline!

I have tested a kitchen door with a width of 62cm (24 inches), and it worked without any problems, but reducing it by 10cm (4 inches) is still quite significant. If we make the passage wider, the shower at the front will be shorter, and I’m not sure if water might splash out at the back near the passage (I don’t want a door there).

Then just make the toilet recess at the back a bit smaller. The toilet alcove can fit under the window.
