5 years agoThe bathroom in your photo is a lot longer than your 2.6 metres. The pinch point in your bathroom looks like it will be between the corner of the vanity and the corner of the shower.
A few suggestions:
1) Consider a 1500mm x 750mm bath integrated into a bath hob (not freestanding), adjacent to the toilet pan. Run a 300mm wide vanity bench across the other end of the bath, then along the wall with a semi-recessed basin. This will avoid the pinch point and give you 750mm more length of bench space. Freestanding baths in small bathrooms are very hard to clean around, especially if there is a gap between the wall and the bath.

3) A concealed cistern in the wall space will make it seem bigger.
Best of luck with your bathroom,

Need help with my bathroom remodel
Comments (9)based on the accurate dimensions the most economical update would be to replace the spa with a shower over bath, keep the existing vanity and toilet, reuse existing taps and retile but, any bath renovation is always much more expensive than imagined, and the unexpected expenses (eg asbestos under tiles) can add up and a minimum of ten thousand for a very modest upgrade wouldn't be surprising...If the bathroom is in acceptable condition especially if there's any possibility of a future expansion towards the backyard that could affect the current position of bathroom and laundry) i suggest (subject to confirmation from a plumber) that you consider reorganising the other spaces and sacrifice the wiw to create an ensuite with linen storage taken off the middle bedroom..surprisingly an extra bathroom could be less expensive than renovating the old one but i would still allow at least $10,000 with careful planning...See MoreBathroom remodeling advice please
Comments (3)something like this may suit without altering the plumbing too muchor this arrangement adds more privacy from the living area, has the bath in the main bathroom, a bigger shower in the ensuite and more space for mirrored wall cabinets and a fixed "window" above the mirrors could add extra daylight between the bathrooms...See MoreWhat do you think of these bathroom concepts?
Comments (9)depending on the size of the room and accurate location of existing doors and windows everything is out of proportion and all the concepts are hard to understand because we don't know the correct sizes ... the baths only look about 1200mm long, or the showers are oversized compared to the other fittings and look too small for a standard towel and what is the size of the storage and what can be stored in it....you need to collect a examples of proper sized fixtures eg a bath could be from about 1500 to 1800 long and 750 wide plus enough space to clean around a freestanding bath, most toilets need about 800 x 800 space to allow for elbow and knee room but there's lots of different sized toilets for different situations, showers need to be about 900 deep and say 900 to 1800 long but depends on available space and do you want a walk in shower with or without a glass screen or a shower cubicle or wet room or Japanese style ...dimensions are easily found on any manufaturers websites but allways start with accurate dimensions of the existing space and try again...See Morecomplete bathroom remodel

5 years agowhat's in the space behind the proposed shower and vanity??...any option to steal a little space from next door? if you could push the shower through the wall it could increase the walking space and adding a small wall hung curved vanity with a shelf for counter and mirror doored wall medicine cabinet for storage

5 years agoThere doesn't appear to be any windows but it would be nice to have one in the bath shower room. My suggestion because space is tight, Japanese style with shower and built in bath running parallel to
each other, you could have a glass sliding screen across them. The vanity would have full width recessed mirrored shaving cabinets and the toilet would remain in the same position which will save re plumbing. cheers

5 years agothanks for all the feedback guys. it looks we are going for the same floor plan except we will be switching around the toilet and vanity for bigger space. The shower screen will now be a diamond shape corner screen to allow more space. ill keep you updated with the result.
we are now up to the plumbing stage.
