Minimum usable size for a wc?

[bstw]

I'm converting what's left of our old kitchen into a utility and cloakroom and I'm limited for space. Has anyone got a really small WC that's still practical? If so what are the dimensions?

[bstw]

I've got 1metre on one wall which also backs onto the soil stack, the other wall is variable but ideally as short as I can make it.

I'd looked at both corner and the combined wc's. Would either of them with on a 1mx1m room?

biggest problem with very small 'smallest' rooms is the door swing arc and space to stand between the pan and the door swing , of course a sliding / folding or outward opening door can be used if the clearance is insufficient

I think I'm going to have to go with an outward
opening door in this case.

With the combined cistern/basin does the waste water from the basin fill the cistern?

No idea. If the door opened outwards you could do it.

This pic is in situ in 1700x800 but you could knock off 700 if the door opened outwards.

Thanks, thats really helpful. I think a metre squared with the door opening outwards on the left should work fine. Did you fit it yourself? the B&Q one gets some pretty bad reviews, it sounds like the internals aren't that well thought out.

I read twitter on my phone whilst using the loo, no broadsheets here. I tend to cr@p at work anyway :P

This is my en-suite cloakroom which I built in an alcove alongside a chimney breast. The internal dimensions are only 1.1m wide x 1.0m deep, but the chimney takes up 0.66m x 0.5 leaving a total floor area of only 0.77m2

Thats a s small as you'd want to go! do you still have the sockets down by your ankles?
