Bathroom layout help needed

2 years ago

We are planning to remodel our master bathroom. Originally wanted to add a tub, but later decided that its going to be too tight. Current window is not tempered glass, so moving the shower to that wall will require replacing the window. The bathroom is 85 sqf, 12'7" long and 6'8" wide. We want a double sink vanity, good size shower with frameless glass. Optional tall cabinet and makeup table. It's going to be modern style.

Third picture is the layout that we are considering at the moment, it's pretty close to the current layout, just need to move the toilet closer to the window wall, my wife doesn't want it to be behind her vanity. The forth picture is a rough 3D rendering of this layout, colors and finishes will different. The floating shelve next to the cabinet will serve as a makeup table, its hight should fit a high stool. Please comment on the layout. Will the makeup table look odd in there? Should we skip it? Any other comments?

I lov e a tub but if ther eis one somehwere else in the house and you don't want a tub then do not try to squeeze a FS in there . I like tub/showers with a nice deep soaking tub but i need more info as to your ream bathroom . The space is a decent size I think the door changed to be outswing would make a big difference in the space and often a bteer choice for bathrooms for safety. I don't like sitting to apply makeup so that is a thing I never use I aslo think bathrooms are a bad place to store makeup. The elevation is not going to be possible as shown if the shower is bigger than the tub.Moving the tilet is an expensive undertaking and sometimes almost impossible .. I also do not think a really huge shower is paractical since keeping warm in the shower is must.I would start by finding out if the tpoilet can be moved without a huge $$$$ outlay. Yhen come back to see what can be done in the space . Post all info here in comments DO NOT start another post.

it's not a bad layout. I would keep everything in the same location, just upgrade all the finishes. Keep it light, calm and serene.

If I were renovating my bathroom, I would move the toilet. I don't like seeing it the first thing and by having near the window it is the first focus.

Consider seeing the vanities in front of the window with suspended mirrors over the sinks. This will give the makeup table its own nook...and Lord knows we have many beauty products, lotions and potions!

The cabinet across the shower is recessed as much as possible and the medicine cabinets across form the dressing table are ceiling to floor mirrored cabinets, either Robern or custom made.

I've designed NYC bathrooms, and know it's not Grand Central Station. You don't need wide clearances to function and have a beautiful space.

The shower is 48W x 42D with glass enclosure. Minimum curb or curbless it you have a good contractor.

All glass shower
