Hello, our house planning is steadily progressing, and now I am deciding on the dimensions of the interior doors.

I am torn between 90 or 100 cm (35 or 39 inches) width / 211 cm (83 inches) height for the interior doors.

We have a ceiling height of 265 cm (104 inches).

The extra cost for the wider doors is minimal. I actually see only advantages with the wider doors, except that sometimes they can look like hospital doors :-(
The country-style design changes that only slightly.

Has anyone chosen this and regretted it?

Thanks

Exaggeration usually looks less obvious.

Is a door height of 223.5cm (88 inches) already exaggerated when the ceiling height is 263cm (104 inches)? What do the professionals say?

The answers have already been given – not from a professional, but from a consumer.
If you want answers from a professional, then ask your carpenter.

I am also very grateful for the responses.

However, I would still appreciate opinions from those who have relevant personal experience with comparisons.

For example, planners, professionals, etc., represented here.

Flat roof experts follow DIN standards rather than opinions.
By the way, the former do not exist here.

Now this is getting absurd.

Experienced professionals can certainly judge, based on their own sense, whether something might look good.

So once again, a question to specialists with relevant experience:

Do you also believe that 223.5 cm (7 ft 4 in) doors in rooms with a height of 263 cm (8 ft 7 in) are too large and no longer look good?

Hello

That looks perfect.
If the rooms/the house allow it, a width of 1 meter (3 feet) would also be great.
