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

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. It probably makes sense to avoid placing the toilet on this wall.
- 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, but my partner dislikes the small partition wall as well as the view from the toilet towards the window.
- 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!

Version 1 is brilliant. If it’s possible to move the door, I would do it exactly like that.H

Version 1: Slightly reduced room size, hallway extended…

Version 2: Door slightly repositioned, see below

Make sure there is enough space behind the door for a cabinet. So move the door slightly to the south. Thanks for the new designs, there are definitely some good ideas here! We didn’t really like version 2 due to the placement of the toilet/bidet, but I do like the repositioned door! If the door stays on that wall, I would definitely implement it that way—even if there is only about 37cm (15 inches) behind the door, that’s still enough space for a shallow tall cabinet, dresser, or shelf.
Version 1 actually solves all the room’s issues; I’m not a big fan of corner bathtubs, but I’m sure we can find a nice model. We could also take a few centimeters (inches) from the adjacent bedroom, which would allow the door and hallway to stay as they are.
Next week, we’ll take all the collected drafts to the bathroom showroom to see how feasible everything is. Thanks so much to everyone involved—you’ve been a great help! I’ll report back when there’s news.
Best regards,

In our old house, we had this asymmetrical tub made of V2: inside it was oval-shaped and somewhat deeper. The width was 160cm by 90cm (63 inches by 35 inches) with an outward extension up to about 1 meter (39 inches). It was correspondingly expensive, really elegant, but definitely 160cm (63 inches) long.Similar topics
