#5X8 BATHROOM LAYOUT WINDOWS#

You have so many options for bathroom remodel ideas, knowing what will work for a 5×8 bathroom remodel layout can help you narrow down your search. The cross shape puts all the circulation area in the same space, so the bath feels larger than it really is, about 55 square feet total.When you are doing some bathroom remodeling the size of the bathroom makes a big impact on your design. It works very well as a guest room/guest bath, though far from the normal square or rectangular bathroom. The guest room to the left of the drawing has two smaller closets, one on each side of the toilet area. The 'extra' space beyond the shower is in a hall, where we built in a small desk and mirror for guests. A 44' vanity is what you see when you stand in the door, and to the right, we extended the area and built a walkin shower, no tub. We flipped the toilet to the left side, and the area is very private- not visible from the doorway when it's left open during the day. We used a variation on #3 in our new home for the guest bath, and really like it. small baths Kohler Floor Plans The Kohler site shows several plans that are not strict rectangles, basically 'borrowing' some space from another room. A linen tower in my last house's master really added storage, and we found it more valuable by far tan a second sink. If the tub were a shower, you could build that small storage area shown by the tub and gain some really valuable storage space. Here are a couple of sites with layouts that might help you: None of them show a double vanity, however. With the bed on the window wall in both versions, you would have more wall space for the head of the bed and side tables, and the bed would be the focal point one would see when opening the entry door to the bedroom. If you do put the closets along the left wall of the bedroom, as in the second floor plan, this furniture arrangement would put the dresser closer to the closets and would allow a fairly straight path from the entry door, so that one would turn right and walk past the dresser and then over to the closets for convenience in getting dressed. However, I would suggest you arrange the dresser and bed as I described in the above paragraph. I do like the larger bathroom in the second floor plan.

I do not know what is involved in the exterior of your home, but perhaps you could center the windows on the wall or add more matching windows and have draw draperies for privacy. Then, you could move the bed to the longer wall that has the window at the bottom of the diagram. This arrangement would require you to move the dresser, and perhaps you could put it on the shorter wall that is to the left of the bedroom entry door, at the top of the diagram. This arrangement would involve putting the bathroom door between the toilet and the open side of the tub, and perhaps a sliding door or pocket doors would save space.

Of course, you might save space by having a shower that would be one foot shorter than a tub/shower combination on this same wall. However, be sure to have enough space to stand in front of the second sink, which would be across from the other end of the tub. Then, put a tub/shower combination across the bottom of the bathroom diagram, beginning with the left corner and extending toward the sinks. In the first version, perhaps you could turn the closet area into one large walk-in closet with the closet door facing the bedroom.Then, in the bathroom, put the toilet against either side of the short wall where you now have the end of the tub or even across this small corner.
