Hello everyone,

I’m in a bit of a rush again. It’s a long story, so I’ll get straight to the point. I need to plan my bathroom layout by tomorrow evening, deciding where and how I want everything. How would you arrange the sanitary fixtures?

I’ve uploaded the floor plan with the bathroom measurements. The layout also shows how our architect (not great) would do it. But I don’t like it.

Upper floor plan with bathroom, hallway and stairs, dimensions

The bathroom is about a bit more than 8m² (86 sq ft). You can find the dimensions in the plan. I want a bathtub, a sink, and a standard-size toilet. The shower should be 90 by 140cm (35 by 55 inches).

The only thing I really want is to have the sink closer to the door. It bothers me that it’s all in a row and feels cramped between the toilet and shower. I’ve already looked at several pictures but can’t move forward.

Our requirements:
Shower at least 140 by 90cm (55 by 35 inches)
Sink 80cm (32 inches), 60cm (24 inches) would also work in a pinch
A drywall partition in the bathroom is not necessary but could be considered
Sink closer to the door

Would anyone be willing to suggest ideas? As I said, I’m still designing and need help. I need a plan to submit tomorrow.

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to help and reply.

With a corner bathtub and no partial wall in the shower area.

The shower is quite spacious, but if the sink has to be installed right next to the door—for whatever reason—that unfortunately isn’t a solution for the original poster.

Which option have you actually agreed on today?

This is how it often goes: at first, everything needs to happen very quickly, but afterwards, there is no feedback at all about how the tips were or could be used.

Sometimes, you have other things on your mind or to do. Besides, you're all doing this voluntarily and without any agreement for compensation, right?

At least for me, it is part of the netiquette that when you receive free advice during a public consultation session, you also show some solidarity within the community in return. In this sense, giving feedback contributes to the benefit for others reading the answered question. Unfortunately, quite a few questioners who fail to provide such feedback are the same ones who quickly come back with the next question anyway ;-(
