Modernise bath tub in lockwood style home
Comments (1)Same wood as the wall, with triple coat of varnish to prevent problems. Around the faucet, a solid piece of material, perhaps a solid porcelain tile drilled for the taps. Keep it very simple....See MoreBathroom design for a new house
Comments (6)You could do a wet room on the south end of the room with the tub and shower combined to conserve space. Window would go above tub, however with privacy in mind it would not be low as you have in your cad drawing. see photo. Vanities would go on the west wall with toilet on the east wall. I am guessing at the dimensions because you mention meters and in the US we use feet, but it sounds like about 9'x15" ? The location of the entry door really impacts the layout of the room, but it looks like it cannot be moved....See MoreBath or no bath? Would it stop you from buying a house?
Comments (6)If I had a small child, definitely. Plus, I use my bathtub for so much more than baths. It's also great for pet baths and other cleaning duties. I don't have a utility sink in my laundry, so maybe if I had a utility sink, I would not need the bath tub so much....See Moresmall bathroom - adding a bath for the kids
Comments (6)I understand your need to bathe your little people but I would not change a thing in this bathroom. What I would do is find a bathing station that could be placed in the shower temporarily until your little folks are no longer little, By the way, bath tubs regardless of the lovely ads that show sumptuous bathing areas as components of enormous and well appointed master bedrooms, are passe. A great idea 150 years ago and for the most part the only reasonable and effective solution. Today, bathing in most homes happens very infrequently and adding a tub to your space would be the tail wagging the dog. Keep the nice space you have created and add a temporary bathing solution.

But either way you would have a glass panel to let light back into the room, but if you don't have a need it could just be a tiled wall with a glass door or not.

4 years ago@jo west this is my bathroom, which is not the world's largest. I have fitted everything in, including a free standing bath. My toilet is tucked in between the bath & chimney breast, the fireplace which now serves as additional storage (cupboard built separately by kitchen & bathroom cabinet makers & inserted in).

4 years agoThank you all. We ended up switching laundry and bathroom around & ended up with a bit more bathroom space - its about 4m x 1.8 - here is end result - think I will be very happy with this...
