The half door is not the root of the problem.
When I was building my house I very specifically did not want a door in my shower. I wanted a fixed glass wall that kind of looks like the first picture in the article.
We paid tremendous attention to make sure that the floor in the shower is sloped at a sufficient angle to provide drainage. We measured and did splash experiments to make sure that the fixed glass wall extended far enough to keep the rest of the bathroom dry.
The result is an elegant bathroom that is functional.
If someone just superficially copies the look without paying attention to the functional aspects, the result is a wet bathroom.
Cargo culting is everywhere.
- mcv 3y agoI also didn't want a door, so we've got a shower with no door, no threshold, no curtain. But the shower is around a corner. The rest of the bathroom stays dry because it's around the corner. The floor slopes, but sometimes we do manage to flood the bathroom because the drain gets clogged with hair fairly easily. And my oldest son always manages to get everything wet anyway.
