Sparse as sparse can be— that’s this bathroom. Out of all of the bathroom designs we see (and there are four), this is the grossest one. The design is white tile with a black horizontal strip— both mimicking the design in the Boulder Bathroom (in the brown and pink) but also euphemistically/idomatically saying clearly defined, reliable and credible (meaning in writing).
There are two scenes that take place inside of this bathroom: During the tour where Jack’s claiming this very space is “Homey”, and when Jack is axing it in trying to kill his wife and son.
The scenes where it’s shown is in No.41 and Danny’s question “You’d never hurt Mommy and me, would you?”, No.50 as Wendy paces waiting for Jack to return, and No.54 Wendy pacing back and forth discussing her plan to leave.
The design of the bathroom is that of a receding exit, with the compositional framing of the sleeping space leading to the bathroom creating a gorgeous golden ratio.
In the horror movie trope aspect, it’s perpetually foreshadowing Wendy’s inability to leave —a spatial expression of “You’ve had your whole fucking life to think things over, what good is a few minutes more going to do you now?”, and when the time comes and she HAS to leave, she’s unable to because she can’t fit.
