Hello everyone,

We are planning to build a house with a separate apartment for parents.
The main house will have two full stories and a hip roof, and to reduce costs a bit, the separate apartment and the garage will have flat roofs.

The house will be built in a new development, and I have already designed the floor plan.
The plot measures 924 m² (11,470 sq ft) and is numbered 30 on the site plan.
Site coverage ratio: 0.4
Floor area ratio: 0.6
Building height: 4.5 - 6.5 meters (15 - 21 feet)

The driveway can only be on the west side because there will be a bus stop on the south side.

What concerns me:
On the upper floor, the east wall runs right above the living and dining area and is actually only supported by the wall between the stairwell and the storage room of the separate apartment. Could this cause any structural issues?

I have drawn the exterior walls as 45 cm (18 inches) thick and the interior walls as 15 cm (6 inches). Load-bearing walls could probably be reduced to 20-22 cm (8-9 inches).

The “wet rooms” like bathrooms and toilets are spread throughout the house, and the separate apartment will have its own heating system. The sewer drainage gullies are located at the south edge of the plot near the bus stop.

Hello everyone,

We are planning to build a house with a granny flat for our parents.

Floor plan: color-coded rooms (kitchen, living room, office, terrace, garage, sauna)

A few days ago, this came out:

And honestly: have you ever had a new approach? A different one? Have you ever started to discard your flawed draft, wiped your hard drive, and started over from scratch???

No! To be honest, you have wasted 4 months.
If you continue like this, you won’t need the granny flat anymore.

We could still provide you with lots of new ideas, drawings, and advice. You don’t listen, you don’t read, all good advice just bounces off you.
It’s time for an architect whose eyes must not fall on your drafts!!

Here you can see it, a kitchen built into the wall

It is not built into a wall; it just has a panel surrounding it. Nothing more.

Your text doesn’t make clear the desire for a built-in tall cabinet wall.

The question is whether you really need five such cabinets... and in my rough kitchen sketch, I actually meant a so-called Johannes kitchen wall with the cooking area by the window. I am a fan of a sink/preparation island because you spend much less time standing at the cooktop than at the sink and preparation area.

From your text, it’s not clear that the enclosed tall cabinet wall is a specific request.

I personally prefer a sink/preparation island (you simply spend much less time at the cooktop than at the sink and prep area).

But honestly: that’s just fine-tuning!

Was I even out of this topic already?

Here I am again (once more)

Oh come on, they studied to handle exactly that.

Unfortunately, many users here confuse the redraw planner with a qualified architect.
