Hello dear forum members,
here is the first draft of our planned single-family home. I would appreciate your ideas, criticism, tips, and tricks. Sorry that dimensions and some furnishings are still missing. I am only interested in the rough floor plan for now.
Between the living and dining areas, there will be a fireplace or a decorative element serving as a room divider. In the pergola, which should have a solar glass roof, a pool is planned if the budget allows.
We plan to build using a construction manager or site supervisor with separate trade contracts, using solid construction methods.
Thank you very much for your opinions.

According to the Saarland state building code, the setback and the roof terrace should be acceptable because the balcony is recessed. Saarland Building Code Section 6 Paragraph 5

What you refer to as "Speis" as a room divider on the ground floor is supposed to be a panoramic fireplace, or at least a decorative fireplace, positioned at seating height and extending across a width of 150cm (59 inches). A "Speisekammer" means pantry, not fireplace... thanks, I can read and understand plans, even those from laypeople.

similar to the concept in the Bien-Zenker Concept M Wuppertal. I still don’t see that here!

The bathroom is intentionally designed to be large because we have been negatively affected by small bathrooms in our current house. We don’t want that anymore. There are differences between 6 and 22 square meters (65 and 237 square feet), and both can accommodate great bathrooms. I see 22 square meters (237 square feet) as a dance floor, but not as a cozy wellness retreat...
... Get into a mindset of reflection directly, Henning, rather than a defensive one.

Thank you for your comments. Please don’t get me wrong, but simply pointing out what is wrong doesn’t really help me much. I need concrete ideas and suggestions for improvement. Thank you!

Remove the slanted wall on the ground floor.
Position the kitchen as in the original layout.
Place the office upstairs; there are enough working parents here and elsewhere.
Use the office or your reading nook as a buffer zone next to the child’s room. Provide the child with a proper bathroom.

Remove the slanted wall on the ground floor How should I divide the room without it turning into some kind of storage space?

Similar to the concept in the Bien-Zenker Concept M Wuppertal. I know Wuppertal, where Erwin Lindemann later opened his men’s boutique, but I don’t see the Bien-Zenker Concept M show home from that city reflected at all in your design. Also, claiming that a 4.58 sqm (49 sq ft) pantry is actually supposed to be a 150cm (59 inches) wide decorative fireplace at seating height not only stretches Yvonne’s imagination — I fully agree with that.

All of that is not very helpful and only helps me to a limited extent. I need concrete ideas and suggestions for improvement. To say exactly which ointment might help only addresses the pain—but to deal with the cause, “throw that thing out” often works much better. Sometimes a “radical” approach is more effective than a “concrete” one.
You are certainly entitled to want your house to embody the character of a particular show home model — but with the caveat that this seemingly simple task is only mastered by skilled designers. Personally, I wouldn’t count myself among those when it comes to such houses; my expertise is more in straightforward, traditional homes. Try to persuade Kerstin or Katja to design something nice for you (or consider hiring an independent architect who suits the prestige of the project — they do exist in the Saarland, though the house might come out more French-inspired than as American as the Bien-Zenker in Wuppertal). Incidentally — maybe a more general but still concrete tip: if you like Bien-Zenker but don’t want an exact or clearly faithful variation, then have a look at Rensch-Haus.
