Our first major project in our new house (moved in last August) is to remodel the "master" bathroom in our bedroom. It is just under 4x8" and lacks any real storage. The shower is too large for the room and its drain leaks into the crawlspace below. Also, the floor of the shower feels spongy, but whether that's from improper support or water damage, I have no idea. Currently, my wife uses it to do her hair in the morning, but neither of us shower in it.

I'm a 3D modeler, so I've mocked up what I'd like to do to the room. I've attached photos of the current room and the idea of what I'm planning on doing. Let me know if anyone has any other ideas that I'm not seeing.

First things first, we're ripping out the shower and putting a 36x36"square stall against the interior wall. The rest of the width (just under a foot) will be storage cabinet space, with/without doors/both, haven't decided yet. That will allow my wife to keep her assorted goods in a single place, allow some towel storage, and some cleaning supplies. Rather than wasting all the space behind the new cabinet, I've inset space for shelves in the shower stall for soap/etc.

White subway tile will cover the shower stall from floor to ceiling, as well as to chair rail height around the rest of the room.

The current sink will be replaced with a pedestal sink to give the room a bit more visual space and a bit more foot room too. I've found a few that with the same width, but more "counter space" that the existing sink.

The toilet will be going to. It is an old model and at times, runs and runs to fill it's large tank/bowl. Currently looking for a lower flow, space saver model.

The medicine cabinet is going to be replaced with something period appropriate for the house. I nearly had my hands on an original exact cabinet I was looking for, but it was sold before I got to it. Looking for something like Rejuvination's Chenowith cabinet, just without the price tag.

The door and window frames are builder grade from when the room, an addition, was added to the house. I'll be replacing the trim to match the original style of the house.

Finally, the door. Currently the door swings into the bathroom, on the right. I'd rather have it swing into the bedroom, on the left, so that we don't have to scootch around the door to get into the shower.

What do you think?
