Even the brick wall has to be cleaned... and that is sometimes even much more exhausting than a glass wall...

However, glass is usually more expensive...

I would design the shower as open as possible... For example, I also shower in the morning and evening, but in summer I have daylight and don't have to turn on the light... with a floor-to-ceiling wall, this would always be the case.

How about putting the toilet all the way to the left? In other words, mirror the WC/shower/sink area... so that the light from the window comes into the shower? Then you could keep the T-wall...

But a wall is easier to clean. At least I think so. Spray bathroom cleaner on it, let it sit for a bit, wipe it down, rinse off, and if you want to be very precise, you can then use a rubber squeegee to pull down the wall, but you don’t have to.

With glass, you have to. And at least I don’t like splattered glass walls, so I squeegee a glass shower wall after every shower. Not a tiled wall, because you simply don’t see the splashes there.

So my vote is clearly for the tiled wall, if possible.

The bathtub can go under the window, so along the length under the window from the bottom of the plan in the corner, the shower into the bottom left corner with the opening facing the window. The door then has to shift a bit upward on the plan, but if I read that correctly, that is still possible. Then the toilet on the wall, as BeHaElJa suggested, or on the exterior wall, possibly with a privacy screen, and where the shower currently is, the washbasin. However, I would never make the wall to the shower floor-to-ceiling.

Overall, I would consider whether you want to enlarge the bathroom at the expense of the master bedroom. Just push the wall a bit downward on the plan. You have a dressing area, and the closet/sideboard drawn at the top of the plan in the bedroom, you don’t need that. I would give the bathroom more space there. With 4 people using it, that really isn’t a luxury.

Climbee, sounds good too. However, I just realized that I forgot to mention that it is a floor-to-ceiling window. Sorry

Hi, so I quickly put together 4 bathrooms again.

Which one is the nicest/most practical?

Although Plan 3 would look stupid from the outside view of the house. Because of the 2 windows on the house wall, it would be much too asymmetrical

The washbasin position in example 1, 2 and 4, in my opinion, does not work at all, as it blocks the daylight from the window. Have you already planned drainage or even gotten approval for it? In my opinion, the drainage shaft depends on that. Regards

What does a drainage planned mean? Well, we haven't planned anything, no idea what or if the company has planned anything
