Separate splash-prone activities from towels, storage and the route to the door.
Explore the ideas
Plan in this order
- Mark shower spray, bath use and the likely wet floor area.
- Place towels and daily storage beyond direct splash while keeping them reachable.
- Choose floor transitions and drainage locations with the installer.
Worked example
Water from the shower reaches the vanity mat and toilet approach during ordinary use.
Review shower opening, screen length and floor slope together; position towels and electrical items beyond the likely splash path.
How to test it
Trace water movement and the post-shower route on the proposed layout.
Apply it to this space
- Layout
- Use freestanding or tension-fit organizers that do not obstruct taps, shower or cleaning.
- Detail
- Choose quick-dry textiles and non-marking hooks subject to the lease terms.
- Trade-off
- Over-door organizers add capacity but may interfere with door or towel use.
- Check hooks and organizers do not damage surfaces
- Observe water and ventilation after use
