Hello,
Since I am about to start building my house and am already thinking about the bathroom but have no clear idea yet, I’m opening this thread.
Please feel free to share how you have built your bathrooms and what they look like. Maybe I can pick up some ideas!

Well, I’ll show you the bathrooms I’ve done so far.
Keep in mind, all done by myself, no professional involved.
The bathroom in the first 4 pictures is about 2.3m x 2m (7.5 ft x 6.6 ft) and is located in an attic apartment of around 35m² (377 ft²).
It was completely rebuilt, including walls and installations (water, heating, electricity).
The other pictures show a bathroom and WC I renovated in my mother-in-law’s apartment.
The bathroom was about 40 years old and completely refurbished. Tiles removed, plastering, and so on.

It looks really good! My only concern would be—what if something breaks and replacement parts are not available?
My first experience with the glass shower wall and the water softener:
You still get some spots, but much fewer.
AND! Simply wipe the glass wall briefly with a floor squeegee, rinse, squeegee off—done. Perfectly clean. For the sink and faucets, a damp microfiber cloth is enough, although using bathroom cleaner makes the water bead off better.
I’m quite satisfied with our budget solution. The large-format tiles did cost a bit extra, but since we bought and installed the sanitary fixtures ourselves, the credit from the general contractor balanced out quite precisely.You don’t have a shower door, but a walk-in solution. How does that work regarding water splashes in the rest of the bathroom outside the shower? There are no tiles on the wall then, right? I’ve often noticed in hotels with such showers that the whole bathroom ends up wet afterward...

daniels875 Aug 2017 22:32Well, removing a straight shower screen isn’t a big deal. It doesn’t take me more than 10 seconds. That’s about the same time it takes to drain anyway.
Regarding water softening: I would have a line installed for drinking water to the kitchen and to the outdoor faucet before the softening system. At hardness level 0, my wife finds the water too salty (I hardly notice it), and the salt accumulates in potted plants.
