Apart from the overall impression, some details also point to the 1980s: calling the part of the full basement without a real use a "hobby room" is already a classic. Here, they even add an exit on the exposed valley side, and suddenly "it looks like it’s meant to be that way." The rest is completed by the tilted skylights, which were absolutely "h-h-hot" progressive back then.

The rest is given by the folding roof windows, which were absolutely "h-h-hot" progressive back then 40 years have passed since then. Maybe it's getting hot again? Recently, I saw a girl on the street with ripped holes in her jeans... Ah yes... those were the days. That's how you realize you're really getting old. When things from your youth become trendy again.

I have just “admired” those bent roof windows as well – I didn’t realize something like that is still being built today. As a former window manufacturer, I have a painfully clear understanding of why this complex design never became widely adopted.

If it stays like this, I would separate the dressing area from the bedroom by extending the wall between the dressing area and bedroom up to the central wall. This would also gain about 50cm (20 inches) more closet space. The door would then lead to the bedroom, and when entering, you would be directly in the dressing area.
Overall, not ideal… but doable.
