ᐅ Bathroom layout, 14 m², new construction, square-shaped, two windows

Created on: 2 Jul 2022 20:47

Hello everyone,

I would appreciate it if you could take a look at our bathroom layout plans.
Here is some background information:

14.4m² (155 ft²), upper floor (full story), window sill height = 1m (3.3 ft)
The designs are roughly oriented to the north; to the east of the bathroom, behind the drywall, the bedroom is mirrored.
Design option 1 corresponds to the original plan, but the L-shape is not desirable (too cramped, too little light).
Design option 2 was proposed by the bathroom planner, and a corresponding 3D rendering is included. I actually like it,
The other designs are my (failed) attempts to fit all sanitary fixtures in the room 🙁
Required are: bathtub, shower (120x100cm (47x39 inches), mostly glass, with a door), toilet, bidet, sink (120cm (47 inches) wide)
Dark, secluded corners are not desirable, so the T-shaped design is ruled out as well
If necessary, we would also consider a freestanding bathtub, or possibly a corner bathtub, if that fits better.
Adjusting the windows by a few centimeters or modifying the sill height on the west side would probably also be possible
I imagine a bathtub in front of the windows might not be very practical, but I wouldn’t completely exclude it
The windows face the street or the neighbor’s property, so the view is not a major consideration 😉

We will try to schedule another appointment with the bathroom planner soon, but we don’t want to come completely unprepared,
so any tips are very welcome!

Thanks in advance and have a nice evening,
Hausbaufaehig

@ypg .. are you referring to version 4 from the introductory post or the version in post 4 (which I still like best .. optionally a partition wall for the shower at about 120 cm (47 inches) height with glass on top, or directly about 220 cm (87 inches) high. And you could also easily do without a shower door ... another thing that doesn’t require cleaning.

Tiles ... of course it depends on the water hardness .. mine is quite low, so on my tiled walls I do almost nothing except occasional cleaning. The grout still looks good even after 10 years (tile size in the shower 30x60 cm (12x24 inches)).

Your right alcove is actually ideal for a walk-in shower. There we go again with the V4 😉

Yes, the shower in the right alcove probably makes the most sense in all layouts, just like the washbasin on the northern wall. Then we basically only need to decide how to best arrange the bathtub, toilet, and bidet within the remaining space 😉

Maybe one more thing:

What bothers me about layouts 1, 4, 5, and 6 is that the toilet and bidet are immediately visible as soon as you enter the bathroom, which puts them on display. Layout 5 feels even less comfortable because you sit with your back to the door and yet still in a very central spot.

This is great! Light coming from the left at the washbasin, close to the door, the bathtub placed quietly with a view. After bathing, if you want to rinse off quickly, the shower is nearby and also receives natural daylight. I would skip the bidet, use a washlet instead, and install a towel radiator on the shower wall.

Or you can separate the toilet and bidet completely:

This way, two people can use the bathroom and the toilet independently at the same time.

That would be a pity for the nice, large bathroom.
