Hello,
I made a mistake in the layout of our bathroom that can no longer be reversed. We originally only needed 10-11 sqm (108-118 sq ft), but now it’s 13.5 sqm (145 sq ft). We have no idea how to arrange it now. Attached is a schematic floor plan with the wastewater pipes marked (the blue dots).
It should include:
- walk-in level shower (1 m (3.3 ft))
- double washbasin
- toilet
- bathtub (1.90 x 0.80 m (6.2 x 2.6 ft))
- 1-2 smaller cabinets for some towels
Our idea was to place either the bathtub or the double washbasin in the niche and build a drywall T-wall construction with the upper drain pipe, hiding the toilet and shower behind it, with either the double washbasin or bathtub in front. There are two windows on the right wall, each 1 m (3.3 ft) wide, all other dimensions are interior measurements. The lower window opens in the opposite direction (I only had a simple tool).
Since the space is more than enough for us, we also considered installing an infrared cabin for 1-2 people. But that’s where we run out of ideas. How could something like that be fitted in there?

Yes, that's true—the 80cm (31.5 inches) passageway will be difficult to achieve; I’ve already noticed that. And with a 1m (3.3 feet) drywall partition at the shower corner, water will probably splash into the passage anyway. One possible approach would be to stick with the T-shaped layout, allow an 80cm (31.5 inches) passage at the toilet, and have an 80cm (31.5 inches) drywall partition (so a 1 x 1.6m (3.3 x 5.25 ft) “seating area”), while the shower would also have an 80cm (31.5 inches) passage with an 80cm (31.5 inches) front wall (also 1.6m² (17.2 sqft)). The shower opening will be closed with a glass door, which allows for a more spacious use of the shower area while keeping the rest of the bathroom dry.
We will still keep the shower by the window.

That will work. To be honest, I’m quite glad not to have a glass door anymore.
