ᐅ Easy-to-maintain yet attractive shower

Hello everyone,

I’m at a loss about how to plan our bathroom. It’s 220cm (87 inches) wide and 400cm (157 inches) long. Everything will definitely fit in as shown in the picture. We also want to include a double sink about 150cm (59 inches) wide.

What’s causing us headaches is the shower. We would like something easy to maintain, but it shouldn’t turn the bathroom into a long, dark corridor. That’s why a 140–150cm (55–59 inches) walk-in shower is not an option. (Because then there would only be about 70cm (28 inches) of space left between the shower and the sink, which wouldn’t leave enough room for the sink.)

Therefore, we are considering a shower with two half walls. One, facing the toilet, would be half-height with glass, and the other possibly built up to the ceiling. However, I’m not sure if 70cm (28 inches) is enough to prevent water from splashing outside. I know that a straight water spray requires about 150cm (59 inches) to keep everything dry, but how far does the water splash sideways?

Does anyone have a shower like this and can share their experience? Or does anyone have other ideas on how we could do this? The bathroom designer suggested a shower with a 120cm (47 inches) glass sliding door, but that seems like too much cleaning work for me.

Thanks very much and best regards,
