Some slope to drains ...probably dramatically cheaper?

Yep, but not as safe.

Without windows ...those look like fancy death camp showers.

All showers and baths "slope to drain", even the most humble, off the shelf plastic compartment stall in your local DIY centre. 1/16"/foot is adequate and imperceptible.

These are nice. The top one seems too small and claustrophobic and I don't like the color.
I like the bottom one better. The color is nice. Still a bit small. I like how the tile acts as sort of a demarcation between the shower and the rest of the toilet.

This is about perfect in my opinion.

Some of the pictures I found of wet rooms were for large areas, more than most people would have available in their house, just like advertisers for kitchen fitments who seem to assume that a small kitchen is twenty feet by twenty feet.

The pictures I posted are practical conversions of an existing UK bathroom.

That bath looks very hard to clean around, gofuckyoyrself. The gap between the bath and the wall is too small to get many cleaning tools between for good, thorough cleaning. If you have a freestanding bath, its got to have room to .....freestand.

this is true. ours is an old school bath with feet placed right in a corner with maybe an inch separating it from the walls because of space and i gotta say it's a pain in the ass when shit falls on the wall side.

I see, and they did a commendable job. In my fantasy, money and space would be no object.

But certainly large enough to lose the occasional bar of soap.
