Hello everyone!
As some users have requested before, I’m now starting a new thread with the current planning of our detached house, which is about to be finalized.
These are the preliminary drawings for the building permit / planning permission application, and I have one last chance to review them and point out any issues.
It still seems to me that there is less than 1.20m (4 feet) of space between the two wardrobes in the dressing room. Or am I seeing this wrong? Apparently, the rooms on the left and right were overlooked and not adjusted accordingly.
Two Velux ceiling spotlights are still planned to illuminate the upper floor hallway.
In the basement, on the right side in the upper room, a window similar to the one on the left basement side is an option.
We still haven’t decided on the T30 fire-rated door to the garage, even though it is shown in the plans. Most likely, for safety reasons and the limited use of the kitchen at the other end of the house, we will eventually forgo it.
User 11ant pointed out that the right window in child’s room 2 is suboptimally positioned. However, this could still be changed after submitting the building permit / planning permission application. Our architect thinks moving the window to the left would negatively affect the house’s exterior appearance. We’ll have to see about that.

20 mm deep???
15 mm thickness is not very thick. Mine are about 3 cm (1.2 inches) thick.Sorry, of course 20 cm (8 inches).
15 mm (0.6 inches) is the standard thickness. Surely, you can get something different for an additional cost.

I am familiar with discussions involving architects. They often focus heavily on the design phases. As a client, this can be somewhat tedious, because of course I consider during the design whether the supply and exhaust air of the desired ventilation system can be positioned in a sensible (and cost-effective) way. I was also met with a hint about the execution planning... it will work out somehow.

That’s when I also got the hint about the detailed construction planning ... it’ll somehow work out. On the other hand, it’s understandable since so far only up to design phase 3 has been contracted. I understand that.

I received feedback today regarding the furniture layout. This is part of the execution planning. That’s nonsense, even if some people have always done it that way. A submission plan is a draft, not just a preliminary design drawn to a draft scale. Afterwards, there are revisions—during these, plans are reworked, typically due to things like the intermediate door to the garage here, or the addition of a wardrobe niche, or changes in the direction of the toilet, door, and shower drain, or relocating a pull-out staircase, or a kitchen corner window suddenly getting a mullion. But, for example, swapping the positions of the sliding door and window opening in the living room just because the actual dimensions of the client’s sofa don’t match the sample sofa shown on the plan—those are changes that shouldn’t be necessary at that stage. Using the example of the windows at the front on the upper floor: my suggestion for a wider “mullion” between two windows is a typical revision issue; patching the entire window front from an earlier draft stage should, however, be resolved before the building permit / planning permission application. And here is your main reason for this “other change”—that it makes a significant difference for a wardrobe on that wall in Child 2’s room. The same dimension issue definitely applies in the living room as well.
