Hello everyone...
After our first floor plan attempt failed completely, we worked with the architect to develop two more ground floor versions and one for the upper floor. I would like to know which ones you find good or bad, and what you generally like or dislike about the floor plans?! Also, the pantry door is drawn a bit oddly; it won’t actually look like that...

Marvinius14 Jun 2017 19:23The bathtub on the upper floor should be moved out of the 2m (6.5 ft) line. Possibly consider swapping the shower and toilet. In the lower floor, I find little to criticize, except maybe that the entrance door could block access to the guest toilet.

Ev-Marie8614 Jun 2017 19:32Yes, I agree about the bathtub… I already mentioned it to 11ant… The designer said it’s possible with a skylight… but I’m still not sure… thank you

Marvinius14 Jun 2017 19:51Perhaps the sink in the guest bathroom could be moved slightly closer to the toilet, which would also allow you to position the door a bit further away from the main entrance door. However, this would also mean the window would shift.

Ev-Marie8614 Jun 2017 19:56That could be an option... yes, I’ll keep an eye on it... otherwise??
