Hello everyone,
this is my first post here, and I’m hoping for a good start.
It’s about a two-story urban villa measuring 11 x 11.5 m (36 x 38 feet) with a granny flat and no basement.
It’s important to us to separate the living area from the dining/kitchen area.
I hope everything is clear, as I quickly created the plan using Photoshop.
We haven’t been to an architect yet. I would appreciate your opinions on the floor plan.
Best regards,
Roman

I’m currently imagining a 4.4m² (47 sq ft) bathroom with both a shower and a bathtub.
This advice has been given before: consult someone who is experienced in this field!

Thank you, Perlenmann,
I think I will hear/read the advice about getting external help quite often. However, I still want to try it myself.
I followed your tip and removed the corners/angles. At first, I didn’t want the wardrobe under the stairs, but it actually looks good, and the WC and utility/storage room are slightly larger as well. The opening will have a glass sliding door to create an open feel while keeping odors and noise contained in the kitchen.
Regarding the bathroom in the granny flat: there is no shower, but a bathtub and a washing machine. Currently, we have a WC of the same size, and it works quite well.

I would reconsider the openness effect of the glass door. You’re basically looking through a pane of glass at a staircase! Does that really feel open?
About the washing machine: I would end the hallway (in the granny flat) directly at the bathroom, making the bedroom bigger. You can’t really use the square meters in the hallway, but you can in the bedroom.
Do you have another picture of the upper floor? I don’t see anything in the original post anymore.

For a nice staircase, I think it’s better to look at the stairs rather than a wall, but I will render it and take a look.
I have already virtually furnished the bedroom, and it fit well. The larger hallway then provides space for jackets, shoes, and so on. A kind of “in-between” solution is probably best there.
The upper floor will follow tomorrow; I have the drawing at home.

Hello,
to be honest, do you really think this looks good? In my opinion, it lacks a certain flair. It looks like it was forced rather than skillfully done.
Designing is not everyone’s cup of tea…

P.S. Please don’t take it personally, but some people have actually studied this.
