Hello everyone,

we are currently finalizing the bathroom design. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, we were unable to visit a bathroom showroom for consultation. Since the working drawings need to be completed this week, we only have today and tomorrow to decide on one of the three options. The bathroom is connected to the central ventilation system (near the shower). Which of the three would you choose and, most importantly, why? We also welcome any suggestions for improvements.

PS: In option 3, the area labeled "a" near the bathtub is not a false wall but a shelf surface.

If the shower must be located in the upper right corner (which is the only consistent feature in all your plans), you might consider swapping the bathtub and shower in Kaho's proposal.

Definitely Katja’s version. Versions 1 to 3 look “awkward.”
When I imagine entering the bathroom, none of the three versions look good.

Waste water cannot be the problem. The toilet is the only fixture limited by such a distance because of the soil pipe, which also shifts around the room in all three versions. The shower and bathtub can be moved a good distance in the floor.

I think it will turn out even better if the bathtub is fully enclosed with masonry:

Floor plan of a bathroom: bathtub/shower on the right, double washbasin on the left, door at the bottom.


Bathroom: left side with two washbasins, bathtub on the right, bamboo wall, window overlooking grass.

... although this privacy panel between the washbasin and the toilet can also be omitted.

I wouldn’t really call a 140x90 cm (55x35 inches) shower small

We have an interior dimension of 155 cm by 110 cm (61 by 43 inches) with a side entrance and side shower head. Even then, it splashes a bit outside. Not a big deal, but we always place a towel in front. I think if the entrance wasn’t on the side, you’d have to wipe the bathroom floor after showering.

Yes. I find it practical so that nothing falls from the washbasin into the toilet. For example, hairpins (speaking from experience).
