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.

Dear 11ant, please drop the doomsaying. You can clearly see how much pressure the thief is under. So why do you keep betting on that?
I think it’s ultimately all about appearance. Especially the box in the kitchen can be integrated, maybe with a panel from the kitchen manufacturer in front of it, and the corner wall cabinet could simply be 70cm (28 inches) wide instead of 90cm (35 inches).
Of course, it’s not perfect, but nobody sells a house because of a minor visual flaw. How absurd is that. I completely agree!

But it should be at the same level as the cabinet. Something like this:
I just don’t know if that’s even possible, since the lights are planned with halogen boxes in the drywall ceiling. I’ve contacted the lighting designer to ask if they can simply be lowered or how that would work?

So, I’ve had two inspectors come by, and both criticized the base waterproofing. They both said there’s a reason why there is a DIN standard for it and that the implementation does not comply with the recognized rules of technology.
Tomorrow, I will post the full report here.How would the base be waterproofed in your projects? Don’t you have a site manager? Usually, they are responsible for ensuring proper execution according to the DIN standard.
Best regards,

Yes, we do have a site manager. But as you can see from this thread, not everything is ideal, and the site manager admits that he deviated from the DIN standard. However, he claims it was faster and, in his view, equally effective.
