Knowing the total volume of the space will enable you to get a system that’s sized to adequately exhaust (and refresh) the air. A fresh-air ventilation system is an essential part of home design today. But the open bath will require a few additional registers than a basic system has, and perhaps a “boost” switch to increase the rate at which air exchanges when it’s being used.
Excessive moisture build-up and migration only become problematic when the air isn’t being adequately exchanged. A shower is the largest point source of moisture, and a water closet has its own ventilation needs. Positioning exhaust ventilation (negative flow) in the water closet, and the shower and fresh air (positive flow) in the sleeping space makes good design sense.
