Hello everyone!

Who would like to help me with the bathroom design?

Our bathroom measures 3.50 m x 2.86 m (11 ft 6 in x 9 ft 5 in). If you draw it in portrait orientation, the walls are as follows:

- On the left is a 350-cm (11 ft 6 in) wall with a continuous strip window across the entire width of the room (sill height 132 cm (52 inches)).
- On the right is a 350-cm (11 ft 6 in) wall where the door must be placed, though it can still be moved.
- The top and bottom walls each measure 286 cm (9 ft 5 in).

The floor-to-ceiling tiled shower has to be positioned on the upper wall of the room because of the drain location, but naturally not in front of the window.

Otherwise, the following fixtures should be placed:
- Double sink (130 cm x 48 cm) (51 in x 19 in)
- Standard-size bathtub (175 cm x 75 cm) (69 in x 30 in)
- Toilet

At first, we thought of a T-layout:

2D floor plan of a bathroom with toilet, sink, bathtub, and shower


However, 2.86 m (9 ft 5 in) room width seems too narrow for a T-layout. The passage to the shower is too tight, and without a door on the shower, water splashes out—which is usually the advantage of a T-layout, allowing you to avoid having a shower door.

So, we modified the plan to an L-layout:

Bathroom floor plan with toilet, sink, shower, and bathtub


But we didn’t find that very convincing either. Currently, we are considering the following solution:

Bathroom floor plan with bathtub, toilet, sink, and shower


The toilet and bathtub could also be swapped, which would place the shower/bath area in the upper half of the room and the toilet/sink area in the lower half.

Do you have any other ideas or suggestions?

Best regards

Since the room is 286 cm (112.6 inches) deep, the partition wall for the shower can be made 200 cm (78.7 inches) long, with a 140 cm (55.1 inches) wide washbasin at the far end ... and in front of the door, a storage cabinet with reduced depth of about 30 to 40 cm (12 to 16 inches).

With these specifications, the washbasin is always located near the door 😳

Alternatively, the washbasin could be at the bottom left, the toilet next to it, and the bathtub along the shower wall. However, I don’t find the toilet next to the washbasin very appealing.

Try planning your room using the Villeroy & Boch bathroom planner, just as @kbt09 suggested. Seeing it to scale makes a noticeable difference.
