I have a clawfoot tub that I turned into a garden tub, next to the shower. My wife loves the tub as she fits in it perfectly. It was missing a foot, so we refinished it and dropped it into the surround I made. The shower is 4x8 so there's lots of room.
We just got back from visiting our daughter in her 100+ year old house with one bathroom. The shower is in the big claw foot tub. Gramps and I had a hard time getting in and out of that thing. Now, we lovingly call that house, “the death trap.”
Thats exactly how I feel. I am nit as agile as i use to be.
Claw foot tubs are gorgeous and I am a bath person. However, a few years ago we stayed in a beautiful hotel which had one and I was shocked at how awkward it was to use. Definitely not senior friendly but I think not very user friendly at all to anyone. (Maybe if it was laid out differently it would not have been so difficult)- but agree they are pretty but not nice to use.
I don’t like the floor....too busy, but at least the spareness of the decor doesn’t fight with it much. I’m a curtain girl too.
Looking at the room again - you are absolutely right - the sparseness of the room makes the floor work.
