Bathroom Planning Renovation

While thinking about this, this floor plan came to mind: The toilet is hidden behind/next to the door thanks to the rotated door hinge. Choosing a corner bathtub solves the boundary problem with the shower. The washbasin is by the window with natural light. The shower is somewhat shortened, but with 80cm width, 120cm depth doesn't help you much either. Between the shower and bathtub, there could be a nice shelf for towels. This arrangement loosens up the floor plan a bit and in front of the mirror (where a lot of time is spent) you have enough space for two people without having to worry about getting hit by the door. Caution: My floor plan is by no means to scale... Just a sketch.

The water pipes can be laid anywhere.

Sure? Where is the downpipe? You surely can't move that?!

It should be 1.40m wide and 80 cm deep. As you can see in the attachment, in my plan the shower borders the bathtub. The opening to the bathtub can remain open. But how do I install a 1.40 m glass wall with a door? Are there options for that?

That doesn’t work. The tub will always get wet, which isn’t nice or easy to maintain. I would first plan the washbasin facing the window, probably best to the right of the door. And then play around with it a bit more... the position of the downpipe matters. And don’t squeeze the tub against the wall, but leave a 10 cm shelf. That’s good for the pipes too. Possibly go for asymmetry.

Right, the downpipe is in the corner where the toilet is. So the toilet should stay as I suggested.

A corner bathtub is a nice idea, but then I have less space at the sink or I wouldn't be able to hang the shelf there.

The shower should be at least 1.20m wide. In my plan, it's even 1.40m wide. If I set the depth to 90cm, it would border directly on the window reveal. What do you think about that? Then it would surely interfere with opening the window, etc., right? And then I should close the shower on the narrow side with a glass wall and maybe put a glass door wall on the wide side?

I also didn't say that you should stick to the arrangement.

Your shower is not 140 wide, but 140 long. Not splitting hairs, because 140 in length doesn’t help much without a back wall or free space.

And that’s why I wrote something about an asymmetrical arrangement: with your 76 and 91 cm you won’t get far.

I never said you had to stick to the arrangement.

So what is your recommendation then? The toilet definitely has to stay there because of the drain...
