While the shared, functional and stripped down bathroom might have worked for the Brady Bunch in the 70’s most people (and their kids especially) don’t want to live this communally today. In addition when a family member does not need complete privacy (for example when using the vanity sinks) the space can be shared. When someone is taking a shower or using the toilet they can lock both inner doors for privacy. In it’s basic form the Jack and Jill bathroom is a shared space between two bedrooms and has a locked door on each side. The kids used a common space known as a “Jack and Jill” bathroom. In the 1970’s when the Brady Bunch was popular (I might be dating myself with this reference) a hot home design concept was the idea of the “Jack and Jill bathroom.” This popular 70’s show which featured a newly blended family with 3 boys and 3 girls had the ultimate in a shared bathroom.

If you have a 13 year old daughter and a 17 year old son (like Ben and Melodee Diss of Powell Ohio – and also me!) you know a shared Jack and Jill style bathroom has the potential to turn into a major battleground for a brother and sister (especially if they need to use the space at the same time!).
