Why is the design the way it is? For example
After several visits to model home parks and browsing through various catalogs from common prefabricated house suppliers, where we always found something to critique, we designed the floor plan ourselves.

Our plot is located at a cul-de-sac and on a slight north-facing slope. It is planned so that the basement is open on one side, allowing the rooms there to be used as living space. The terrace is on the south side.

I hope everything is readable in the drawings; the dimensions are initially for orientation only.

What do you think of our designs?

Where is each cardinal direction?

North is on the left and south on the right. The front door is on the west side.

Contour lines?

The 2 m (6 ft 7 in) line on the upper floor is missing.
How many people is the house designed for?
What is the budget?

What is meant by contour lines?
The house is planned for 2 adults and 2 children.
The budget has not been defined yet – there can be significant differences depending on the features.
The 2m (6.6 ft) line is missing in the illustration because the roof pitch has not been determined yet.

What is the elevation difference on the property?
What is the height within the building area?

Without the 2 m (6.6 ft) contour line, the upper floor cannot be assessed.
