Bathrooms are expensive, used every day, and hard to change, so layout mistakes are worth avoiding. In this video, I go through the most common bathroom layout problems I see as an architect, and explain why they don’t work: from awkward toilet placement and clashing doors, to wasted windows and uncomfortable bed-to-bathroom proximity. Whether you’re renovating, building from scratch, or just trying to make sense of floor plans, I hope this helps you spot issues before they’re built in! 😊
