Hello everyone,

our house construction is progressing, and I wanted to share the current layout of the bathroom on the upper floor and ask for comments or suggestions for improvement.
The original idea was to have two separate washbasins/mirrors. The floor plan can no longer be changed, except the bathroom width can possibly be extended to 3 m (10 feet). There are no sloped ceilings.
Due to the narrow, elongated layout, I find it difficult to create space for two washbasins...
The long side is 5 m (16 feet), the narrow side is 2.76 m (9 feet).

Thank you very much for your feedback.

Regards,
Mathias

It looks like the bathroom is already framed – is that right? If so, maybe you could provide a sketch showing all the fixed dimensions (wall sections, windows with sill height, etc.).

Hello,
I didn’t respond earlier about the window because I thought you were asking about the window with the error message.

The window is 1.26 m (4 ft 2 in) wide, with an unfinished floor sill height of 1.0 m (3 ft 3 in). The floor build-up is 10 cm (4 inches).

The shell construction is complete, exactly. However, the walls of the restroom will be built with drywall. This means the wall opposite the staircase could still be moved to the right, but that would reduce the size of the child’s room.

Attached is a marked-up sketch.

And now that I think about it, a 1.8 m (6 ft) bathtub definitely won’t fit on the 1.4 m (4 ft 7 in) wall.

Is the window at the bottom of the plan exactly centered? And how many centimeters from the right wall on the plan should the door be? Also, which wall is opposite the staircase?

So! Here is my latest idea. I have reached the bottom right on paper...

I like this, Yvonne. However, I would place the washbasin on the right side of the wall in the floor plan. That way, you could use a glass shower wall and have plenty of light in the shower.

Hello,

yes, with the washbasin on the right side of the plan, we are almost back to the original layout. So it can’t be that bad after all. Of course, the shower/bathtub are now closer to the wall.

I also don’t think the tile layout is bad. I can imagine doing the washbasin area floor and wall exactly the same and extending the wall upward.

Thanks for your support.

We will walk around the construction site again shortly and try to visualize the furniture in our minds. Let’s see if any new ideas come up. But the hexagonal bathtub has really caught my wife’s interest. We could also change the angle so it’s not positioned at 45° into the room...

Best regards
