Any other options for bathroom layout?
Hi,
Hoping to get some ideas for a bathroom layout. We are in the process of knocking down a wall between the existing bathroom and a cupboard to increase space. This will leave us with a 3m x 3m blank canvas. On my wishlist is... a freestanding bath, separate shower, vanity sink unit (double sink ideally!) and wc. Here is a quick mock up - it would be great to get some feedback or thoughts on different layouts.
Thanks :)

7 years agoAs rinq says, it's a good size. Not quite big enough for two sinks without a re-jig. I'd consider moving the toilet to the side, with a false wall allowing for a wall hung toilet. You can also carry this across to the shower and have built in niches on the wall, handy for shower cream etc.
Don't forget the radiator.
If you're going to have a freestanding bath, i'd consider nothing else on that wall, plus think about where you're going to put shampoo etc when you're in the bath ( the one draw back ). We put a niche at the back of ours.
Also, i'd consider changing to one window............maybe not in the budget, but looks a lot better.

Comments (3)Hi, the design looks nice, though the image is a little grainy. Am I right in thinking you have a shower area behind a frameless glass panel at the back right? It would be interesting to know the room dimensions to work out how best to locate different elements in the design. Wrt a run of fitted units along the left wall and a concealed cistern, that would probably be best for maximising storage. If you are concerned about the "end" of the run by the door you could look for a system which either offers curved end panels (see below) or a curved door. If you were to pair that with a wide but slim sink, you could keep the run quite sleek. For a bit more space for toiletries/medicines etc, consider a wide 3-panel mirrored cabinet above the sink, or a full run of wall units. If you go fitted, I would take care that the WC does not project too far towards the shower area, or adjust the width of the glass panel to make sure you have enough clearance without banging your knees! Love the bath, by the way!...See MoreAny ideas for something OTHER than lino/wood/tile for bathroom floor?

Comments (5)To create less stress and cost option 1, (moving the door) still provided you with a better layout for your space. However, if your budget can handle extending then definitely go for option 2, this will provide you with more space and provide easier use.

Comments (22)Following all your kind thoughts on my redesign, we’ve decided we very much like @Jonathan’s design for the bathroom and the removal of the original wardrobes on that side to give us more space. However in the bedroom we’re going to leave the bed where it is and instead wrap some more wardrobes around the bit leading to the dormer window. I’ve measured up and this will give us another 2.4m of wardrobe space. But anyway, my next question is whether anyone here is a bathroom or design professional who could do us a detailed drawing of the replanned bathroom with enough detail for a builder/plumber to work with? Happy to pay for such drawings. It will take us a while to book a plumber/fitter so I’m hoping to get a precise drawing with accurate measurements, then source ahead as many of the materials as I can by myself....See More- 7 years ago
How long are you planning on staying there? And is this your only bathroom? How many people in your household?
Here a layout with two sinks that could work really well with your assymetric window placement:
And here's one that would only work with a small bath, a quite narrow vanity and a 80cm wide shower.

Look into semi-freestanding baths.
Best of both worlds ;)A quick google find:

Then probably go for something like the first layout I posted. Either with a wide single sink vanity or a small-ish double.
