Good day!
We are currently planning our house and are uncertain about how to arrange our small guest bathroom on the ground floor. I have sketched an initial idea but am unsure if it is the best solution.

The space needs to include:
- Washbasin with storage
- Toilet
- Shower (for guests, dog, possibly a "mudroom" function for children; so not used daily!)

Since we are still in the planning phase, the window on this wall can still be moved. The door should stay in its current position.

Do you have any tips for the layout?
Thank you very much.

I would plan the door to open outwards and then like this

If the door has to open inward and you like the floor plan as it is, I would at least rotate the sink by 90°, otherwise you’ll run into the door if it’s not locked. The space will not be sufficient for a walk-in shower.

There won’t be enough space for an open shower.

Good point, thanks. But the door can also open outward.

This is how my idea for the bathroom would look:

Then show us the floor plans. Snippets of the plan alone won’t be enough.
