Dear all,
The wet zone in bathrooms have lower floor height compared to the rest of the bathroom (dry zone). Does anyone know if there is a guideline or best practice on the recommended difference in height of floor level between wet and dry zone?
Even in my current place, the mbr bathroom has 30mm drop whereas the common bathroom has 23mm drop, which is still tolerable.
However, in a new house we've just taken possession, the drops in all the toilets range from 50mm to at least 70mm, which is dangerous for unsuspecting visitors (GF toilet) and older folks.
Installing shower partition is not an option due to space constraint, practicality and not to mention having additional maintenance.
To clarify which area I'm referring to, please refer to the "wet zone" in the sample image below.
Thank you in advance.

50mm/70mm is significant enough for people to be aware of the drop.
two ways of dealing with it.
1- visual treatment..change the tile at the edge of drop to contrast and highlight the drop. or
2- change the blue area to all one big gentle gradient slope.
