Hello everyone,
For our condominium currently under construction, we are still looking for alternative layout ideas for the bathroom. It should include a toilet, washbasin, and shower, as well as a bathtub if possible. The original proposal from the architect is as follows:

We are wondering if you have better ideas for the arrangement, as we find the current version somewhat boring and also think that the fact the shower is directly next to the bathtub is not ideal. A layout where the shower might work without a glass partition, for example with an additional wall, would be nice.
We have shown the room dimensions in the following illustration (partition walls are removed). Dimensions B, C, and D are fixed, while A and E could be extended downward by up to 30cm (12 inches) if the adjoining hallway were narrowed, provided this leads to a significantly better solution. The door could also be moved.

A = 135, B = 55, C = 95, D = 280, E = 230, F = 339
One idea was the following layout (although the showerhead is shown on the wrong wall in the illustration), which we were not very happy with as it felt too cramped.

We would be very grateful for any suggestions!!!

Thanks for the suggestion! Do you mean something like this?
That doesn’t work, not even in the sketch.

Not exact to the centimeter, just a sketch. That’s how I pictured it in my first post. It looks similar to Nice-Nofret’s suggestion, I think 🙂
It’s good, but it won’t be quite as “open” or spacious. (Looks like about 2.8 x 3.6 m (9.2 x 11.8 ft))

Please don’t reduce the door sizes; what you have is what you have (especially if you ever need to get in with a wheelchair).What exactly do you want to do with a wheelchair in this bathroom? In this bathroom, you can only move around alone, without any aids. So you don’t need to squeeze through the door either.

Does the developer happen to start with a B? This floor plan looks very familiar to me.Yes, that's correct, you guessed it right 🙂

Yes, that is correct, you guessed right 🙂I recently owned a similar apartment myself and can only advise you from experience to leave the bathroom as it is. The apartments from this developer are basically all quite similar, and they had a reason behind the original layout. I would at most remove the bathtub and enlarge the shower, but not change the entire arrangement. Keep in mind that pipes, wiring, and connections might need to be relocated. It can work out well, but it might not…
My tip: focus on the apartment’s interior fittings instead 😉
