It's a very efficient layout, and with the small size you'll be able to go with really nice tile ... without breaking the bank. Specific thoughts:

- Fearing it'll interfere with the door, I'd lose the bench in the shower. Instead, I'd go with a moveable teak stool. Same function, more flexibility.

- My hall bathroom has a 30x60 walk-in shower. The width is acceptable, but a few more inches would be nice.

- I'd downsize the tub to a 32" wide model ... maybe even 30" wide. It'll require fewer gallons to fill it -- an ongoing savings. It'll also allow just a bit more floor space -- you have enough, but a bit more wouldn't hurt.

- With storage being in short supply in this small bathroom, I'd keep the long vanity but lose one sink; this'd give you a nice big bank of drawers.

- And I'd do something other than a pocket door. Pocket doors are very poor options for bathroom doors, which are opened/closed multiple times a day. They're more difficult to open/close, the humidity wears on them, and they will eventually need expensive fixes. I assume you made this choice because of door swing issues ... can you swing the door out into the bedroom? My bathroom door works that way, and I never even notice it.

It looks to me like you're trying to fit too much into that space. You already have a separate tub and shower? Is the primary objective in rearranging things to fit two sinks? Bigger shower?

My concern would be that you don't have a safe amount of clear floor space in front of the tub. I think your tub is too big for an 8'9" square bathroom.

I assume you can't change the window, but in a room this size, I'd do tub and shower on one side and vanity and toilet on the other. This is similar to our house; we have the toilet and shower at the end of the room with a pocket door separating it from the vanity area. It works very well for us. However, designing our bathrooms for safe access and for aging in place was a priority for me. I think our shower is something like 38x42 which we like, but might not be big enough for others.

Thank you mrspete and benjesbride for your feedback.

I'm leaning towards Reve Kohler freestanding cast iron which is 32 inches wide rather than 36 inches but nice and deep. It also looks a little more sculptural and less boxy.

I'm thinking a fixed panel of glass without a door would make it look more open and allows full access to the tub for aging in place.

I like the idea of a moveable bench and the teak will add some warmth. Unfortunately I will lose some storage with removing the built in bench.

I'm going to do some towel storage over the toilet and will mount hooks to the glass door.

I still want to go for the double vanity as I often get ready with my husband at the same time. I will likely to 15 inch Kohler Caxton oval.

I'm going to use Robern recessed cabinets so there will quite a bit of storage in them 19.5 x 39 inches.

Regarding the bathroom door, it currently swings out--I suppose we could keep it that way (and I can keep my robe hooks on the door!

I'm leaning towards a vanity with legs to see the floor underneath and make it look a little more open. I like the look of walnut but we're in an old victorian so will have to discuss door style with cabinet maker.

Attached are my modification. I look forward to your thoughts!

That looks much better. Not so boxy. I agree about no pocket door.

Well, you all just talked me out of a built in bench in the shower and opting for a teak bench instead. Now I'm wondering if I should rethink the pocket door.
