Hello everyone,
I need your advice 🙂. We are currently planning the bathroom in a new build. I have attached the bathroom layout.
The shower area is L-shaped, measuring 160x100cm (63x39 inches). The "open wall" is 80cm (31 inches) long, and the entrance to the shower is also 80cm (31 inches).
Question: Is the 80cm (31 inches) wall length enough to prevent water splashing outside the shower area? Or would it be better to install a door?
According to a consultant at the sanitary supply store, this should be sufficient. However, I have read online that a minimum length of 120-140cm (47-55 inches) is recommended.
P.S.: The thick wall between the toilet and shower likely contains the service shaft.

But without that stub near the toilet!
I hope that's not intentional 😉
A 70cm (28 inch) shower opening is enough (unless you say that one of you already weighs 140kg (308 lbs)), I would make the toilet 100cm (39 inch) wide.
I would either integrate the bathtub platform right away or move it to the outer wall, as this way decorative elements will be more evenly distributed throughout the bathroom around this corner.

I think this would work. If I rotate the toilet, the shower can be moved further down. The side with the open wall would then be about 140cm (55 inches) long. What do you think?I would find there’s not enough natural light in the shower. I would probably place the showerhead on the left side of the plan and make the upper walls out of glass.motorradsilke schrieb:
For me, that would be too little natural light in the shower. I would probably place the showerhead on the left side of the plan and make the upper walls out of glass. That’s definitely something I hadn’t considered. Although I’m not sure if natural light makes much difference with a wall height of 80cm (31 inches) or 140cm (55 inches). I think it will be relatively dark in both cases.
