Bathroom planning Arrangement of sanitary fixtures

Hello dear ones,

I am currently in the middle of planning the bathroom for a renovation and am not so sure if I am on the right track.

I’m just attaching my current status for you.

Must-have list from my better half:
- separated toilet
- double sink


My problem:

- Bathtub entrance impractical?
I placed the bathtub last because it will certainly be used the least. In terms of space, a tapering bathtub might even be possible (?), where two people could sit at the back and watch TV. However, the entrance to the bathtub is questionable.

Solution: shorten the shower wall from 145cm to 120cm, then about 60cm of the bathtub entrance on the side would be completely free. Would that work?

- The entrance area could seem a bit "tight" because of the separated toilet, trying to loosen it up with a glass door that should be opaque but lets through the automatically switched-on light when there is movement in the toilet. Also, you don’t see directly into the nice shower. Whether this is an advantage or disadvantage I don’t know yet and surely also depends on how beautiful I still am in 20 years


Other solution: everything completely different, no matter how, I haven’t managed better. Only the one alternative with the separated toilet in the window area. However, to me the bathtub looks extremely cramped there because the niche will be at best 180cm, rather a few centimeters less (tiles etc.)

Thanks a lot to you!

What is a floor-to-ceiling window? Is it possible to open it despite the bathtub?

Somehow all of this feels and looks cramped and convoluted. The extra toilet creates the biggest problem, I would seriously reconsider that. Then rather a single toilet accessible from the hallway, but a bathroom without a toilet is also no good. The bathtub would probably be difficult as well. In general, I would consider what can be removed, even a double washbasin might not be necessary. It just seems like the goal is to cram in as much as possible and then shrink the individual parts until they somehow fit.

The exact same 2 things are on my mind. Omit the separate WC and double washbasin. ... But they are set by the partner. Maybe a T and thus a semi-hidden toilet is acceptable? Although the room is too narrow for that. What I also don’t like is the pointed corner of the tub that points towards the shower enclosure...

How can you "place" something that a space practically doesn’t provide for? You can say that I asked that. What do you think I had already "placed" before my planning? Seriously, as a floor plan amateur, I believe this won’t work.

Spontaneous idea in the evening:

Open the front door the other way around and put the bathtub with a window above it at the back, like in the 2nd draft, so that at least when entering you have a clear view and it doesn’t feel like a narrow corridor as you can see in the 3D images of your first draft!

Make the play corner smaller and place it in the corner so that the high walls don’t feel so overwhelming when entering -> PLUS a window in it!

I would then adjust the shower behind the door like in draft 2, slightly changing the shape, with a little wall by the play corner, but the long front all glass so it doesn’t feel closed off; with that size, though, an open entrance won’t work.

Or is the renovation not so extensive that a second window is possible? Then I would only put a privacy screen or nothing at all!

Good luck
