Bathroom layout

[Semple]

Yeah that looks much better! It still looks very much the focal point, but the layout is much better, and significantly more usable.

You could look at 1-way glass, although that's only useful if inside is darker than the outside - so depends when you have your baths.

Maybe a minor thing but check where your joists are as that will affect where the bath and presumably pedestal tap can be positioned which may have a knock on effect to your positioning. With the bath in the corner there’s little area where a pedestal tap could actually go once you factor in the base width.

I thing that design is terrible personally, lots of wasted space and an unusable shower.

If its not too late have you considered moving the bath over and the window, small and offset to allow a shower in the corner?

This is what I did to fit a shower in, there velux window centred over the bath

Just spent a good hour or so moving things about all over the place and pretty much settled on exactly the above @BF-Bert.

I personally don't think this is a great use of space. Cleaning behind the bath will be a nightmare and liable to collect fluff/dirt on the areas that get damp from the bath, the bath could end up looking out of balance if you don't get the angle perfect and there's no decent storage even just for some bubblebath. Freestanding baths work great when you can get all the way round them with a large amount of space dedicated to show them off as a feature.

I have a bathroom about the same size.
My layout is:
Shower where your toilet is
Toilet opposite door, where bath curremtly is
Basin as soon as you walk in door to right
Bath runs under window into where your shower curremtly is

That layout is nothing like ours? How is the shower unusable?

Yeah, fair point re: cleaning, but I have seen plenty positioned in this way, especially in bedrooms/hotel rooms. In fact most freestanding baths I've seen the intention definitely isn't to actively walk all the way round and most are 250-500mm from a wall or bed on the longest side (when looking at inspo photos on Houzz etc). I obviously haven't drawn any storage in but there'd be shelving on the left hand wall.

Toilet can't be moved I don't think.

Its roughly the same size and shape, just to illustrate using a partition to create a more screened off shower area.

Ok the shower won't be unusable, but the bathroom would be for hours after afterwards with the amount of water that would go everywhere

That seems a bit extreme. I'm all for advice and thoughts but are you telling me that every single wetroom is unusable for hours afterwards? Not like, floor is a bit wet in front of the tray, but actually totally unusable.

For one my friends have a much smaller bathroom with a smaller glass screen and it was one of the features he praised when I asked for advice. Not to mention the 6,104 wetrooms on Houzz.

Sorry didn’t mean to cause offence and was overly critical.

I love a wet room but just not one in the middle of the room, and not too keen on walking straight in with a screen in front of you. But the end of the day its your house so do what suits you and to your style

I do like the toilet position though, I hate walking into a nice bathroom and immediately seeing the bog. Walking in and seeing the copper bath and the view will be immense

The bog is the first thing you see in this bathroom. Unless door was hinged on opposite side.
