Planning main bathroom with pre-wall installation

2019-07-26 14:46:49

Ok, I didn't think it looked tiled in the pictures - it's just a 3D simulation without wall fittings.

It is even recognizable as 60x30 tiles.

overall, I find the whole gable wall with the constant protrusions and recesses extremely restless. Which is completely eliminated by the flush front wall.

A bathroom is never so "slick" that you could Kärcher it clean without clearing anything away. There are shower gels, nail polish, shaving brushes, etc., and so on; putting the toilet brush into a secret compartment might still be funny, but doing the same with first aid supplies is rather not. The inevitable amount of "disturbances" on smooth surfaces is even emphasized by the contrast. Look at it positively: the side pipe boxed in next to the toilet makes it relatively much less conspicuous that an eyebrow pencil is lying around two and a half meters away (and possibly even slightly crooked, a tough test for autists *smile*).

It’s not about wanting to have secret compartments everywhere. Just looking at the gable wall alone, everything somehow appears poorly planned, unfinished, botched. For me, a professional bathroom doesn’t have pointless projections. I really don’t know if I wouldn’t constantly be annoyed by this half wall next to the toilet, just like the pipe box next to the washbasin, and constantly wonder why I didn’t pay better attention during the planning. That’s why I also liked the idea of completely extending the wall so much.

I am also annoyed with the architect because it would have been so easy to place the condensing boiler on the interior wall, so that the exhaust chimney would have been behind the wall of the washbasin. That could have been covered much more easily. That's what you call an architect :-(

You are building with a general contractor! Nothing is ever perfect there. The heating system will be installed by the plumber where HE thinks it is right. Have a nice weekend

Well, the planning of the heating location was done by the architect in our case, probably unaware of everything involved. The ceiling openings were also all devised by the planners of the general contractor.
The plumber would certainly have paid more attention and has already shaken his head over this planning.

I would still be much more annoyed by the chimney in the middle of the bedroom. But that's an old story. I am also in favor of option 4 with imagined wooden shelves extending into the slope.
