how large are the glass element and passage now? What about splashing water coming out of the opening?

Hm....I would have said, get rid of the bidet and have the entrance from the toilet side without a door, etc., but that wasn't the question :D The passage at the end could be 50-60cm and then I would probably put up a 70-80cm glass panel, although personally I find half-height masonry with glass on top much better. Dimension-wise that would probably be about like above at , that looks good and water also splashes out at 140 but that's not flooding. If you install a door you will always have a bit of water outside. Depending on how you do it, you could still retrofit a door if necessary, although from experience people never do that, but adapt to the circumstances, which I wouldn’t find difficult here.

Sorry. Glass element is 75cm, passageway therefore 65cm, which is still sufficient!

Thanks! How about splash water protection?

here I have reports from other builders. it does not splash around the corner, supposedly not even to the opposite wall, so that bathrobes/towels etc. can be hung there. practical test is still pending

Our shower is 2m in length. The glass panel alone measures 140cm. Women very often use the handheld showerhead for their hair (because of the higher pressure to wash out the shampoo well). It sprays exactly up to the end of the glass panel, so 140cm far. I would definitely plan a door element for a total length of 130cm.
