Our bathroom planning, need input

No, from the original draft

You are talking about a toilet chair. I don't want to be indiscreet, but to me that sounds like an accessible design for disabled people, which would also be indicated by the wide door. If that is the case, in my opinion you should reconsider the entire bathroom concept, because then it seems to me to be too small.

We originally considered that too, but it would make the paths more difficult with a commode chair,

Sweetie - you have to realize a radius of 1.50 m everywhere in the bathroom; not just at the shower. Also in front of the washbasin as well as the toilet ;) Rhineland greetings

If I get my second hip now, you won't run away from me anymore. :cool:

The bathroom is not getting bigger. We are not building wheelchair accessible, but barrier-free.

We are not building wheelchair accessible, but barrier-free

Then I would like to point out a few things regarding a bathroom from this perspective: - walk-in shower (planned) - wider doors (also planned) - height-adjustable toilet - seating options in shower and bathtub - entry aid in bathtub - wheelchair-accessible washbasin - height-adjustable easily accessible cabinets - sufficient storage surfaces at appropriate height - good lighting - non-slip floor - plenty of space and freedom of movement that's what I call barrier-free. ;) With all due respect, I do not want to tell you how to build/plan anything, but I believe that if barrier-free, then consistently.

With all due respect, I certainly do not want to tell you how to build/plan something, but I am of the opinion that if it is barrier-free, then it should be consistent.

That may be honorable, but in reality it overshoots the mark.

- walk-in shower (planned) - wider doors (also planned) - height-adjustable toilet (For what, we are fixed on 48 cm height, which my wife has been doing great with for over 2 years. Kids just need a bit longer until they can reach it.)
- seating options in shower and bathtub (Shower yes, bathtub no)
- entry aid in bathtub (For what? Others plan entirely without a bathtub. Shower is enough, otherwise a bathtub board works perfectly)
- wheelchair-accessible washbasin (For what? Barrier-free doesn’t necessarily mean being mobile in a wheelchair)
- height-adjustable easily accessible cabinets (Depends on whether you plan cabinets in the bathroom)
- sufficient storage surfaces at appropriate height (You necessarily have this through the built-in units.)
- good lighting (Never wrong and not necessarily related to barrier-free)
- non-slip floor (Let’s see what is available, but we certainly won’t lay gravel.)
- lots of space and freedom of movement (Lots of space is never wrong, neither is a lot of money; usually one of the two is lacking)
