Anyone with knowledge/experience on the viability of having exposed concrete floor (ie. no floor tiles) in the bathroom including as the shower floor ? It will be a wet room and I am very keen to eliminate tiles (and grout & mould) entirely. Any things to remember regarding the setout for the pour? And how to waterproof it?

Our bathrooms and toilet are vented to the outside through the walls. 3 496 Those cracks don't look unusual for a new house slab.
