So do you just open the cabinet under the tub to let it drain or just let the wood soak up all the water?

toilet appears well-secured, seal around the edge of the tub looks good... you should be good to go, just get a little windex multi-surface for that cosmetic stuff

I filled it with leftovers from a nearby gravel pit, but I did much science before hand so I know mold isn't a problem.

You guys dont seem to know this, but you can put stuff on wood that keeps it from soaking up moisture.

You can even use wood outside exposed to the elements.

Realtalk the wood is too much and I never love glass blocks, but even though I'm not on board with the aesthetics, I really dig the features. Tons of closed storage, a luxurious tub, a functional shower, easy-to-clean surfaces, big counters. I would say maybe consider some upper-level storage for usual medicine-cabinet stuff, but otherwise, thumbs up. The stuff I don't like is almost all stuff you could make over quickly for a space that looks great; the function is already there.

Yeah for real just replace those cabinet fronts with something a little more up to date and you're like 90% there.

Replace the toilet paper.

Fill the bathtub with rushes and frogs. Gradually introduce species to increase biodiversity. Once a stable ecosystem is established, sit back and admire your handiwork as you poop to the sound of the loon nesting in the sink.

Yeah the aesthetic is 90's as heck (or even 80's with the glass block) but it all seems functional enough. I'd swap out the cabinet fronts, do the tub surround in tile rather than wood, and probably redo or paint the trim (possibly in the whole house if it's all that wood) if it was my house, or if I was selling it.

Also also the lack of trim around the ceiling and around the mirrors contrasted with the thick woody trim everywhere else feels off somehow.

It's achingly obvious that I live in squalor because I have one toilet and shower/tub combo in about a 10'x6' bathroom. Whatever it's a low rent bachelor pad with TWO STORIES in half a duplex.

Yeah my bathroom is probably even smaller. Most everyone I know lives in a tiny cramped apartment so these huge 10x10 + sized bathrooms feel cavernous to me. Personally even if I was filthy rich I'd like my bathrooms more on the cozy side of things. The few times I've used huge bathrooms I've not liked them because the room never really gets steamy enough.

Same. I'm not a fan of big expanses of unused space in the middle of pretty much any room. It's feel like a waste to me.

We have the 2nd floor of a house, decently sized, but our bathroom is pretty small. The only plus is that it's a combo shower/tub, and that it has an actual sliding door. gently caress shower curtains forever.

I dunno my takeaway from the thread is that you need a lavish bathroom to have a chance with women.

Real talk though I don't mind having a small bathroom.

Behold real estate photography. To be honest, I also think it's too big, but was shot at a low level with a lens to help enhance the impression.

In reality, even though I actually agree on wasted space, when you get two people in there trying to get ready in the morning with kids under foot the space is much appreciated.

Knowing Grandpa we really had to discuss it (seriously), but the consensus was that the turd was more consistent in size with a toddler's.

my shower is an affront to everything OP holds dear, there's a three foot long shelf that's like 8 inches deep. i could have a shower sixpack in there and still have room for a bong.

While I like the amount of counter space, I feel my wife would fill it up, both counters. It's like a garage, you fill to the space you have.

i can see OP building something exactly like this because one of the counters looks way bigger than the other and i'm sure the person designing it made that the "for Her"
