[quote=Anonymous]The only curve I like is the shower. The curve and freestanding vanity wall is dated/won't look better with new finishes. I hate the cut off height and low fluorescent light- very claustrophobic for a large bathroom. I'd rather have a wall that goes to the ceiling. If that is a double sided vanity- I LOVE that. If it is not, I hate it/don't understand the placement.

What are the double doors leading to, if not the bedroom? (where is the entry?) Not a fan of doors to bedroom from primary bath but that's just how DH and I am. I ask only because if that is the entry into the bathroom- the one thing I'd have to change is that view of the toilet from the entry. Can you shift that door or move the toilet so it isn't visible? I am not a fan of doors on water closets in larger bathrooms, as long as the toilet is hidden from view, which it is not, here.

Again, I like that curved shower and you could go so many ways with that update including tadelakt if you are not into piecey tile. Noting that you need to lower the lip of the shower entry- it looks like it's a foot tall. I'd make that a zero entry if possible and no door. I'd also make larger niches on the opposite side so you can't see it from the shower entry. Definitely add more shower heads etc. I can't see how high the ceiling goes but I'd likely make sure it's not a lowered height and I'd add tile there too. Noting that if this bathroom is old enough to have a heater (usually next to the shower), KEEP it if you can. They make bathrooms, especially larger ones SO much toastier when you get out.

Agree that that is not a sunken tub, it's got a huge deck that you need to tear out and make a freestanding tub far out enough from the wall to be able to clean. This will make the bathroom so much nicer/larger and you can mimic the curve of the shower here instead of on the vanity wall.
