Hi!

What do you think about this master bathroom layout?

We didn’t really want the shower to be so hidden since we plan to outfit it in a high-quality and stylish way. It would be nice if it could be more visible, not just for showering. But during the plumbing planning, we were advised to keep it like this (because of the water pipes).

What’s your opinion? Or does anyone have an idea on how to create more visibility into the shower?

The two washbasins are marked incorrectly. We will only use one washbasin (1m wide (39 inches)). Our idea is to move the bathtub to where the washbasins are currently shown and place the washbasin on the right wall instead. We want the bathtub to have a prominent spot in the room instead of being “in the corner” when we bathe.

Currently planned components:
Toilet: Duravit Happy D.2 extended version, 25500900001

Washbasin: Villeroy & Boch Venticello 1000x500mm (39x20 inches), 4104ALR1

Bathtub: still considering either Villeroy & Boch Squaro Edge 12 Combipool Invisible (UIP190SQE2B1V96) or a Kaldewei Conoduo, both 190x90cm (75x35 inches) (235200010001)

Shower:
Villeroy & Boch shower tray Futurion or Squaro Infinity
Hansgrohe Axor ShowerSolutions thermostat module Select 530 / 90 for 3 outlets, 18356000
Hansgrohe Axor Shower Solutions 350 1jet overhead shower with ceiling connection, chrome, 26035000
Keuco meTime_spa waterfall showerhead, 59982010000
Hansgrohe Axor Starck 1jet handheld shower, chrome, 10531000

Looking forward to your feedback!

ypg, the problem is that the toilet can no longer be moved because ceiling panels with the corresponding holes have already been ordered, or so I was told. Otherwise, with this floor plan, we would still have the same issue as before – the distance between the washbasin and the bathtub. This doesn’t change at all, whether the shower is positioned slightly higher or lower. The bathtub and shower are the same width.

Does the whole family shower together, or what kind of dances require such a huge shower enclosure?
I clean myself, so a smaller one is enough for me.

I wanted the 140cm (55 inches) width for the walk-in shower to prevent splashing and to avoid needing a door. Otherwise, a 120x120cm (47x47 inches) enclosure would be more than sufficient.

I understand.
However, your shower measurements confuse me.
The spray reaches quite far... at 1.40 m (4 feet 7 inches) you will need a barrier.

What kind of restriction? The plan is now finally approved and looks as follows.

Of course, there is still the possibility to reduce the shower base to 120cm (47 inches) during the shell construction phase.

I think this is a well-rounded design. The bathroom feels much more open than with the T-shaped layout, the purpose of which I still don’t understand, but which apparently many people like.

I think it’s a well-rounded design this way. The bathroom feels much more open compared to the T-shape, the usefulness of which I still don’t understand, although it apparently appeals to many.

I’m confused: wasn’t it mentioned in this thread that the splash zone extends approximately up to 1.60m (63 inches) in length? I read that every few days here on the forum, and I have a walk-in shower myself... I’ve never seen a width of 1.40m (55 inches), since you need quite a bit of space in length already.

Well, you must have had your reasons, which I can’t follow right now since I haven’t followed the thread for a while. Sorry!
