Hello,
I’m also currently struggling with bathroom planning. We have a similar bathroom layout.
I would opt for a window with a sill (not floor-to-ceiling). On the one hand, your other windows also have sills, and on the other hand, since people sometimes walk around naked, the sill provides some privacy. Even with blinds, it feels cozier.
I don’t understand the 1.26 meters (4 ft 2 in) between the child’s room and the bathroom. What is supposed to go there? Empty space? It would be best as a storage closet.
Then the door can only be placed on one wall. I would keep it there because otherwise, there could be congestion when entering and exiting in the stair corner. The bathtub should be placed under the sloped ceiling, same with the toilet. The shower and the sink need to be where there is at least 2 meters (6 ft 7 in) of ceiling height. The sink should preferably be beside the window to have natural daylight while getting ready.
So, there aren’t many options left.
Shower to the right of the door? (with a room divider)
Or move the door and have the shower on the left side?
I would advise against adding more room dividers, as the bathroom feels too small for that.
But maybe someone has a better idea?
Best regards

syrincsandy22 Mar 2013 06:03Hello, since the storage room is not very wide, I would place the shower without a window at the end of the storage room with access from the bathroom.
If shelves are installed there, it would hardly be possible to bypass anyway, and it only gets shadowed daylight. The bathtub and toilet should be placed by the knee wall, and the washbasin on the left side of the door, when viewed from inside. I would install a towel radiator on the left between the shower and the door...

November201223 Mar 2013 07:18Hello,
thank you very much for the suggestions. We actually like the idea of the shower in the recess, but we originally wanted to keep the corridor between the child's room and the bathroom as empty space to make the hallway feel more open. Furthermore, the corridor has a window to provide natural light. I don’t like skylights.
Are there any other suggestions?

Personally, I would keep the hallway very small to benefit the rooms.
