such a big bathroom

Hello! We are renovating an old building and due to the given walls, we will have a 22 sqm bathroom :eek: The dimensions are 5.51m x 4.01m I’m uploading a floor plan and a drawing with my own ideas. Unfortunately, I don’t have a "professional" drawing. I’ve already put some thought into it and would like your opinion. My idea was to take 1.5 x 2m from the bathroom and install a door from the adjacent children’s room so that a walk-in closet for the child is created. The shower would be 1.50 x 2m with an 80cm wide entrance without a door. In front of it there will be a small area for dressing, or as long as necessary a changing table should stand there, dimensions are about 1 x 1m plus passage to the shower. Also, my husband would like the toilet and the urinal to be in a room within the room. Possibly half-height brickwork with mirror glass above (if we can afford it :D) Some time ago, I saw a washbasin made of river stone, which I would like to place as an eyecatcher in the middle. Furthermore, I would like to build ceiling-high shelves behind the washbasin instead of buying cabinets. That’s about my amateur plans :p But feel free to completely discard the entire idea and give me completely new impulses! Thanks in advance!

Another idea would be to install an infrared sauna and to omit the walk-in closet in the children's room.

Hello MeleMai and welcome to the forum!

I like the individual components, but the layout is not quite optimal. Since the shower and toilet are hidden, it could happen that the bathroom gives off the impression of an empty room when entering. The bathtub behind the door also gets a bit lost, all alone in the corner.

I would probably highlight various objects in a room of this size rather than hide them. This way you might artificially make your spacious, inviting bathroom seem smaller. A freestanding bathtub, for example, also takes up some space.

Also, for the size of the bathroom, one washbasin would be too little for me.

If I use realistic dimensions for the toilet room, the door does not pass by the washbasin. Please keep in mind that there must be a built-up wall behind the toilet on the wall (cistern).

We are also planning a large built-in shower (open). One disadvantage is: without a door, there is always a slight (cold) draft while showering. With a door, the warmth stays better. If you don’t keep the water running continuously while showering, it can be a bit cool or cause you to want the bathroom temperature a few degrees warmer.

I always like to spend time on the Pinterest site. You find a lot of bathroom and home ideas there. Also, stone washbasins. And many visits to show homes and new buildings help a lot to get a feel for the layout.

Best regards,
Daniel

EDIT: And keep starting over again. When I thought it was perfect, there were still about 20 changes, it felt like.

Hello Daniel! Thank you for the tips! The large empty space in the middle and the fully packed walls are also my problem, I just lack solutions. I really like a freestanding tub! I also find it annoying that it is so squeezed behind the door, but as I said, I didn't really get along with the layout. I will go check Pinterest right away! Thanks and best regards Mele

Draw the drain pipes for us. And draw with the actual wall dimensions for yourself, then everything will look different right away. I'll take a look tomorrow :)

Pipes are not laid yet, so we are free there. I multiplied all the measurements by 4 to make it bigger. So I drew 16cm on the 4m wall... That's correct, right?
