Hello. My partner and I are planning to build a house soon. This is the first draft from the planner at the construction company. The design was created based on our specifications (a hand-drawn sketch from us).
Gable roof, single-family house, no basement, 1.5 stories, currently 2 people in the household; later 3-4.
The terrace is planned to be adjacent to the kitchen and living area, mainly facing west. Do you think it would be better to have it facing south instead? Possibly wrap around the corner near the living area?
Our requirement was to have direct access from the garage/carport into the utility room, and from there directly into the kitchen.
- Is the size of the utility room sufficient? All the building services should be housed there. Additionally, the utility room should also serve as a kind of pantry. Laundry tasks will also be done there.
- What do you think about the downstairs bathroom? Showering directly in front of the window doesn’t seem ideal^^.

"Think before you print" is in the footer of every one of our company emails. I fully cover my scrap paper needs with the back pages, which are printed solely because of and with this eco-friendly do-gooder footer.

But it’s good to know that in a time when climate change and its devastating effects are undeniable, you disparage someone who cares a little about the environment as an "eco-do-gooder"...

No. I’m just pointing out that "think before you print" actually has the opposite effect, and that "think before you add the line ‘think before you print’" might be smarter. The time wasted scanning every email before printing to see if you have to reduce it by 98% just to avoid starting a third page because of that silly line is unbelievable.

Poor OP, whose question has long been overlooked here.
After recovering from my uncontrollable laughter, triggered by someone who only works at the computer and absolutely cannot make a mistake because the boss would get angry (great corporate culture, I must say…), and who already struggles online to keep two completely different nicknames apart, I have been sitting on the couch with a huge bag of chips for a while now.
