Bathroom planning reference: compare fixture arrangements before selecting finishes.

Plan in this order

  1. Sort items by daily use and store the frequent items nearest the basin.
  2. Check bowl, tap and cabinet positions against the actual user's reach.
  3. Keep plumbing connections and shutoffs accessible for service.
Worked example

The basin trap consumes the center of the vanity cabinet where daily toiletries were planned.

Map plumbing before drawer design, then use side drawers or a shallow upper tray for daily items while preserving service access.

How to test it

Place representative containers in a mock-up and use the tap and drawers.

Apply it to this space
Layout
Separate shower splash from vanity and place towel storage within easy reach of the shower exit.
Detail
Use slip-conscious floor finishes, moisture-tolerant joinery, and even mirror lighting.
Trade-off
A larger shower improves comfort but reduces vanity or storage space.
  • Test splash outside the shower
  • Check toiletries and towels are reachable
