My fav is the ones that just say fuck it and make the whole bathroom into a shower; as if people don’t keep anything else in the bathroom, like idk towels or the clothes you’re putting on after you shower…
Interesting. I thought a lot of Japanese dwellings were smaller than the average American home. But I’m in the US and my entire bathroom is like between one third and one half of this image. I don’t have room for a setup like this without making the neighboring room significantlly smaller.
There’s diversity for sure. Old, rural, traditional Japanese homes are huge, most apartments are tiny, and standard single-family homes are usually somewhere in-between. The layout pictured here is most common in houses and apartments with multiple occupants; single-person apartments (especially cheaper or more modern ones) often have a more western-style “unit” bathroom with everything shoved into one room. But there’s a lot of variety; for instance some places have the sink and tub/shower together while the toilet is separate. Japanese homes (especially apartments) often only have one bathroom, so separating out the bath, toilet, and sink/vanity is actually a space-saving compromise, because one person can be using the toilet, one taking a bath, and another brushing their teeth all at the same time with relative privacy without the need for a second (or third) bathroom.
Honestly, if it was built right, that would be the perfect type of bathroom. Imagine a bathroom where all the surfaces are water proof. Then, when it’s time to clean the bathroom, you just hose everything down the floor drain!
My uni dormitory bathroom was like that, a very tiny off-white plastic cube with a toilet, sink and shower in no more than about 2 square meters.
It looked like crap, especially with aging year by year, but it was really easy to clean indeed. Though if everything gets wet regularly, mold also has an easier time spreading, so we needed to do that “easier” cleaning more often as a result

I didn’t want a practical bathroom anyway…
This is the way most Japanese showers are set up, and it works well because the shower/tub, toilet, and sink/storage area are three separate rooms.
Here is a (simplified approximation of a) common layout:
Oh hey it’s the bathroom from my student campus housing
When the shower is literally alone in its own room, that’s a little different.
I’m talking about when the full bathroom; toilet, sink, and shower, are all in the one uninterrupted space.
Did Dave piss on the damn toilet seat again, or is it just splash from the shower? 🤷🏻
Just use the bum gun to spray the seat off. And then talk to Dave.
I assume you mean the kind of talking that involves fists, yes?
That’s between you and Dave. No judgement.
Fists. Got it.
And lube.
Wow, okay, wait a second. Let’s not get too hasty here. One thing at a time before we go jumping into the deep end, okay?
👍

These aren’t very big though. An average American might feel a bit cramped.
Hm well I honestly have a very tiny bathroom for American standards.

Dont you just leave clothes in the spa area outside your shower room? I find it easier to dress there anyway since it got more room for movement
OFC, this is all on my multimillion dollar yacht after all…
Is this a serious comment
Not at all :)
Ok I was gonna ask for pics of your bathroom and spa lolol
I love bathrooms like these. Just put the towel on a hook and you are good to go.
