In connection with the renovation of an old turn-of-the-century house, a room will be divided to eventually become a bathroom. The new wall will be an interior wall between the living room and the bathroom (approximately 2+0.5 m L-shaped).
How should the wall be constructed (materials)?
Is it sufficient to use studs with 45x70mm?
Should there be double drywall on any of the sides?

There are usually 70mm studs in a standard inner wall, but it doesn't hurt to use 95mm. Especially if you're going to have tiles and maybe a door in the new wall. If you slam the door hard, a 70mm wall might move a bit, which is not ideal if you have tiles.
If you choose to make a thicker wall, you'll need to extend the door frame, which would otherwise be too narrow.
Otherwise, double drywall is required under tiles.

Use 45x70, it's sufficient. To have something to screw into, place for example plywood or OSB under the gypsum, at least on the inside.

Do not use standing studs at cc60, instead use cc30-45, whichever fits the panels you use best. If using only gypsum, double gypsum is required at cc60, not at cc30.
