Positioning of toilet and washbasin in the children's bathroom

In the meantime, we have gotten used to the solution "everything in a row".

Then everything is fine.

The reason for the floor-to-ceiling window is not its function (or meaningfulness) for the children's bathroom, but the symmetry of the gable towards the street side. Next to it, in the area of the stairs, a similar window is also planned, with exactly the same dimensions.

It's clear regarding the attic alone. However, the symmetry/harmony overall suffers in quite different places: the door under this bathroom window has a different width, and the yet another width of the toilet window on the ground floor is the third discordant note. A balustrade height of "0" would not make sense for the stairs here – which would be "floor-to-ceiling" only when viewed from the top of the steps – but rather a continuity from the ground floor; there a balustrade height of 125 would be a good measure fitting the stairs, also matching the other windows on the ground floor on this side. I would make this stair window the same width as the toilet window on the ground floor. Then, for the children's bathroom, I would give a window with the width of the front door below, with a balustrade height coordinated with the adjacent eaves height. Otherwise, the observer would whistle "offside" there :-)

An identical format for both dormer gable windows would not be suitable to carry a "symmetry" on its own in the cacophony of the surrounding formats.

Imagining façades by story leads from house views exactly to these wanted posters from "Development Plan XY Unsolved", with which the new development areas are already "sufficiently" filled.

I also think that the other window must be adjusted as well, I had already mentioned that. Because a bathroom with frosted lower sections and something else done in the upper area, since who likes to stand naked coming out of the shower in front of the window, they just don’t look very homogeneous anyway.

I also see no reason to install a floor-to-ceiling window in the staircase, as there is no floor at all in the area where a floor-to-ceiling window could have an effect. The only thing that should set the tone here is the bathroom – and the bathroom clearly calls for a parapet :)

I would put the toilet by the window and not next to the shower. When you come out of the shower and dry yourself, otherwise you stand with the towel directly next to the toilet bowl and have to be careful that the towel doesn't touch it.

... and has to be careful that the towel doesn't get touched.

I don't understand... it's precisely the lid that makes a toilet so comfortable as a storage space.

Best regards, Yvonne

Well, I don't understand that either. If the lid is closed, you can put something on it. I do that all the time because the parents' bathroom is rather small. My towel first hangs over the shower partition for quick access. Then I even sit on the closed toilet to, for example, put on my silk stockings. New clothes sometimes do actually lie on the toilet lid. I don't find that disgusting. Why would I? It's clean, just serves as a stool because there isn't an extra one. A towel doesn't hang directly over the open toilet – or does that happen?
