Hello dear house building forum users,
I am the "newcomer" here. I have been using the forum for a while for ideas and tips.
I am from Hamburg and will be building a house in April.
Like everyone else 🙂 we also have a problem with the bathroom layout.
We don’t really like looking directly at the shower when entering the bathroom.
Also, I don’t find the toilet placed directly in front of the window very appealing 🙂
Maybe one of the clever users has an idea? We are a bit too close to the situation to see clearly.
Thank you very much in advance.

Would you leave the rest as it is then? That way, I would also look at the sauna side wall like this.

I would do it this way. However, it does not include a sauna, so I haven’t had to consider that yet. As it is now, it should work with a window everywhere to have natural light.
I don’t have any ideas for the sauna yet 🙂
Of course, this only works if you’re fine with the dressing room being a walkthrough room.

Jensowitsch8 Feb 2014 13:47Thank you very much... This would definitely make it much brighter and more open.
The walk-through dressing room would be fine.
The sauna remains a real challenge in this context. It somehow needs to fit in "nicely."
Maybe use the T wall structure for the bathtub, toilet, and shower? Completely stumped.
The rest of the upper floor seems fine so far. Or do you have any other ideas here?

I like emer’s idea to extend the wall. The door to the dressing room will need to be moved anyway to fit a 60cm (24 inches) deep wardrobe behind it.
However, for further planning, you need to know the location of the drainage. Then the toilet and bathtub can be planned. A sauna could also fit under the sloped ceiling, but a shower would not.

Jensowitsch8 Feb 2014 16:42I agree with you about the dressing room door. It definitely needs to be moved to the left.
Drain? Can’t I just specify that? And then plan everything exactly the way we want it?
I also like the idea of extending the wall.
Sauna under the sloped ceiling? What exactly do you mean by that? And where would the rest of the bathroom elements go then?

Well, somehow the entire drainage system has to run downward and then out of the house. That’s why bathrooms are usually planned one above the other, so the toilets have a short pipe run. If the architect has positioned the bathroom in the upper left, you can’t simply put your toilet in the lower right. The pipes need to run somewhere with a 3% slope.
If you place the sauna under the sloped ceiling, you have more flexibility with the other rooms.
I don’t quite understand why the toilet shouldn’t be by the window, and a well-designed shower can be a great highlight when you enter. But yes: it’s probably not ideal with children 😎
