Room Design Examples

The example room configurations below are AutoCAD drawings of rooms included in our Design Guide, page 26 and 27. Every file contains a 2D drawing as well as a 3D model. The room configurations are for right-handed users and can be mirrored for left-handed users.

Recommended room sizes and shapes

The two main design options - alongside and adjacent - can be arranged in rooms with various shapes. The recommended minimum requirements for space near and around the products have been used as a basis.

Small Bathrooms (ie in existing buildings)

Examples of small rooms, which are sometimes necessary to work with, e.g. due to existing building limitations. Ease of use and working conditions can be significantly improved in these situations by making use of the flexibility of the track system.

Guidelines:
Avoid protrusions in the room, for example, from pipe tracks and closed-in shower recesses – ideally the room should be a standard rectangular shape. Remember that the corners have a part to play – space for showers, wheelchairs, carer etc.

A door directly in front of a toilet can be an advantage, for example, when using a ceiling hoist, but it might also be undesirable from the perspective of personal dignity.

The location of windows should take into account the positioning of, for example, showers and mirrors.

Avoid split-level floors, and assess other factors such as lighting, floor coverings etc., which can increase safety and security.
