Ensuite - will 1.5 metre square suffice?

[JohnnyF]

Hi, we are in the process of coming up with a design for an ensuite and we are wondering if 1.5 metre square is sufficient.

We plan to have a compact toilet, an 800*800mm quadrant shower and a small corner basin. Entry will be via a bifold door. You will occupy the same floor space for drying yourself, using the toilet and basin.

I've drawn a floor plan to scale and it looks like it'll work but a bathroom designer said not to go smaller than 1.7m2.

Any help will be great...

I think you need to give the body dimensions of everyone who might go in there!

Scroll down to space bathroom, this is normally for the size you require, excluding depth of walls.

Thanks for your replies - the space suite from Ideal standard seems good. I think we might have to increase our dimensions from 150m2 to 160m2 though...

I'll redraw the plans. Ta
