Product & Action from Bathroom 1 text

Product / Action

Beginning to move things around in the digital version of my bathroom - this has limitations, of course, because of the walls and structure that surround the products within the bathroom.
In image 1, I have pulled the shower out from the wall 500mm, and rotated the sink so it is parallel with what represents the shower door.

 Image 2 is the joining of the sink and the shower, doubling up the partition between the shower water and the rest of the bathroom with the mirror behind the sink.

 In image 3 I have rotated the attached shower and sink so that the sink is at a right-angle with the existing walls. This is so that the sink is the first product you come across when entering this bathroom.

 In image 4, the sink and shower have been brought closer to the main entrance to the bathroom - the doorway at the top of the image is the recessed sliding-door into my sister's bedroom, the main entrance is on the opposite wall. The progression as you enter the room is from sink to shower to bath.

This relates to my recordings in the bathroom diary I have been keeping - and duration - the sink was the most used [for brushing teeth, putting things on top of, - but mostly for the mirror behind it], followed by the shower [used for showering, washing my hair and cleaning mostly] and lastly the bath [which was only used once in 3 weeks for bathing].

 Image 5 is a plan view of the new bathroom showing the progression again. I have centered the sink, shower and bath, which look onto the window of the bathroom.

Image 6 shows the new layout of the bathroom. The shower and sink have been moved closer to the main entrance (seen on the right-bottom of the image) and the bath has had it's skirting removed and placed to the side, and moved to touch the far wall under the window.

Image 7 is a plan view of the new bathroom, Bathroom 1, which shows the progression nicely from sink (used a lot) to bath (used little). Note that the shower-drain and the sink-drain have lined up and all drains are in one straight line.

It is interesting to note that this progression - sink, shower, bath - also takes into account duration of use of product unintentionally. The sink is used in short bursts throughout the day, the shower in longer bursts once a day and the bath taking the longest time, and used seldom.
