Lately i'm seeing quite a lot of people having questions about small bathrooms. So, just now i measured ours. It is 7 x 5 feet. The bathtub is thus 5 feet in length, but it is deep. For its size our bathroom has great amount of storage space for towels and such. No complaints here, save one. No room for pictures. So, in the future i would like to replace the tub with a walk in custom made ceramic tile shower in where our favorite picture is placed on the ceramic tiles. On houzz i found custom-tiles

What type of advice are you looking for - what kind of western toilet to buy? We are remodeling a similar size bathroom. If you are looking for help picking a toilet, I can post some options here. We wanted one that had a smaller tank in the back but still be elongated. Took us a long time to find one we liked. Most elongated toilets are roughly 17" wide. If you got a 17" toilet with a 24" vanity, that's roughly 3 1/2 feet - leaves you a little room between the vanity, the toilet and the walls without looking too crowded. You could also go with a 21" vanity.

Following are my comments : 1.Buying cheaper branded sanitary fittings is only possible when you buy the same in bulk quantities. But I would like to highlight that these are one of the most important fixtures in the stated space. Don't compromise on the quality of it if you want them to survive the long run.(You can go for the Jaquar continental series or change to Parryware) You can certainly compromise on the WC & the WB since even brands like Somany give good ceramic fixtures at relatively low cost. There you can save your bucks. 2. I haven't worked on PVC vanity but can comment that marine ply cabinets also stand well for the wear and tear. 3. You can go ahead with just the glass partition avoiding the cubicle door. 4. Yes you can but the selection should be on the lighter side of the colour palette so that the bathroom should not look more claustrophobic due to its small size(2 m x 3.5m which is normal in today's real estate market in mumbai).

I disagree with the advice above, the bathroom door that is in the passage should be closed. The reason for this is that you already have a bedroom without an attached bathroom. If you go by the advice above you will then have two bedrooms without an attached bathroom. Its not ideal. Also, you havent told us for which uses are the other two bedrooms. Are there going to be old parents in the bedroom with the bathroom or kids or are you going to use this as a guest bedroom? If you close the door in the passage you can have a bigger vanity by moving the WC behind the door that is from the bedroom side. This is also good because you should never have a bathroom door with a view of the WC. The WC is a very private spot and there shouldnt be a direct view of it from the room. Also we tend to spend more time sitting on the potty than washing hands, looking at ourselves or taking a bath. Once you move the WC you can have the vanity extending till the wall and will be 2.5x bigger than what you currently have.
