![]() The only obstacle to this plan is the window. This way, we can each have our floating vanities that sit on either side of the window so that Matt can have his accessible sink and I can have my symmetry, and we’ll still have plenty of room left in the middle for storage cabinets. So I decided to swap the tub and vanities, and that did the trick! Even with the most frosted of windows, I think I’d still feel self-conscious with the tub in front of that window. In reality, it would probably be a bit less than that.Īlso, do I really want the bathtub in front of the window? My neighbor’s big metal workshop building where he works on cars is about 20 feet from that window, and there are always people over there. Well, if you have 60 inches of open space below the sinks, and the vanity is only 6.5 feet wide, that only leaves an 18-inch-wide area for storage. And that means that mine will be that way also. And since Matt’s needs to be wheelchair accessible, that means that it needs to be open below the sink area. My brain couldn’t handle it if they didn’t match. That means that I want both sides of the double vanity to look the same. But remember that we’re designing an accessible bathroom here, and in addition, dealing with my obsessive need for symmetry. That means that the double vanity can only be 6.5 feet wide. Because our room is only 12.5 feet wide, and there needs to be room for two 36-inch-wide doors in that wall behind the vanity. ![]() So it was amazing to finally be out of that rut I had been stuck in and see things completely differently.īut there was one problem. ![]() Before seeing that video, I had been trying to fit the bathtub and shower on the window wall, and no matter what I did, I just couldn’t make everything work. That was a fantastic starting point, and definitely got me on the right track. That is the way the layout would appear if it were pasted onto the house floor plan, but I find it easier to look at if I flip it this way…īased on the bathroom in the house tour, the tub was right in front of the window, the double vanity was sitting in front of a floating wall, and the area behind the wall was divided into the W/C (i.e., toilet, not walk-in closet □ ) on one side and the shower on the other. So based on the Coastal Hampton Style video as inspiration, I attempted the fit that exact layout into our square footage and came up with this… The master bathroom will be 18.5 feet by 12.5 feet once the current master closet is removed and the room is squared up, which will make the hallway smaller.
