According to Condé Nast Traveler, the half-door trend began in European hotels in the 1980s. “A lot of it comes down to people trying to design hotel rooms with limited space,” boutique hotel designer Tom Parker told the magazine. “It’s about the swing of the shower door, because it has to open outward for safety reasons, like [if] someone falls in the shower. You have to figure out where the door swing’s going to go, make sure it’s not [hitting] the main door. It’s just about clearances.” A smaller door also has the added benefit of making the space appear larger than it really is, according to the magazine.

水流超少，澡洗得很费劲。所以半扇门就够了。
有时候年龄大或者身体不好的人洗澡，怕出事会留一个给别人营救他们的空间。
用浴帘不是更省钱
makes sense, thats why pocket doors were invented
