Hello everyone,

I have started thinking about our bathroom and played around a bit with an online planner. My main focus is on the layout. The furniture pieces that typically belong in a bathroom are harder to represent accurately there.

I imagine a double vanity with two sets of two drawers underneath, finishing the unit, mounted on the wall so the floor underneath remains clear. Between the toilet and the bathtub, I’d like to have a shelf built, either tiled or made from laminated panels with waterproof bonding. Sliding doors could be installed in front of it or it could be organized with baskets.

Knee wall height 1.00m (3 ft 3 in), roof pitch 45°.

As mentioned, I would appreciate feedback on the room layout. The window will either have frosted glass or be divided, with the lower part fixed and frosted or satin-finished.

I am curious about the window hinge side: left or right, which is more practical? For the shower door, would left or right hinge make more sense? Does it make sense to have a fixed panel to reduce the swing area, for example, a fixed 20cm (8 inches) panel and an 80cm (31 inches) door?

Is a heated towel rail necessary in such a small room if there is underfloor heating installed?

Or would you plan things completely differently?

Thanks in advance.

I would position the bathtub and toilet just below the 2-meter (6 ft 7 in) line. It looks more elegant that way.

I think it’s fine. What software is that?

What exactly do you mean?
The toilet and bathtub end at the 2-meter line (6.5 feet), and there is no more sloping?
So, a straight bathtub as well? We were interested in the option to have a wider one so that two people can sit side by side sometimes. We thought the maximum width would be 135cm (53 inches).
I'm also considering the toilet because that way it would be easier to integrate a shelf in between.

So in the morning I go to the bathroom, stand under the shower still half asleep, and then slowly wake up.
Afterwards, I reach for my towel from the shower... oh, where is my towel? Oh, it’s still hanging on the other side of the bathroom on the radiator... 🙁

Yes, that’s what I mean.
A square shower, reduced-size vanity cabinets, and then an asymmetrical bathtub in one corner, with an angled toilet in the opposite corner.
My opinion: everything is pushed too much into the corner, the shapes seem arbitrary and don’t fit well together. I would also avoid the suggested shelf. It could make the space feel very cluttered!
