In what country are you building this house? 9 foot or vaulted ceilings are taller than the US builder average of only 8 feet (this is the distance from the ground to the ceiling). If you have a small room, having a higher ceiling (even only 1 foot extra) will make the room feel more open and airy. In a small house of 1500 square feet, having high ceilings would go a long way in making it feel much larger than it really is. It is especially beneficial in a hot climate because heat rises so you will spend less on cooling costs. It is not so beneficial in a cold climate. It still looks nice, though!

In the layout below, I took the liberty to move to vanity and toilet so you don't enter right into the toilet. I am not sure if you have room for that since I can't see the measurements of the width of your bathroom. This is something you can discuss with your architect. The main idea of the layout below is to block the original entrance of the closet so you can have a bedroom door. The entrance to the closet/bathroom can be where your dresser is and move your dresser closer to the window. You would have a choice of a door that swings inward, outward or a pocket door. Personally, I would go with a pocket door so the bathroom would feel more spacious.

It's a bit hard to tell, it looks like some of the proportions are not correct. Given what you have drawn it looks like entering and exiting your shower is going to be awkward. I'm not certain that you'll be able to open the door all the way because of the placement of the tub and vanity. Here are a few suggestions: Ditch the corner tub, and use a rectangular one that is installed with the long end on the wall opposite the vanity and shower and install the toilet next to the tub. Slide the door to the right, and you'll be able to have a larger vanity and/or shower. If you can use a pocket door or something of the like you'll gain wall space like sandpat mentioned. I don't see any storage planned. Have you thought about where you'll keep towels, toiletries, etc-?

Hello Sagar, This space is sufficient for a bathtub in a bath. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS, Bangalore
