ᐅ Floor Plan 170 m² – Utility Room Too Small? Suggestions for Improvement?

Had to get creative again. Utility room now just under 10m² (108 sq ft).

Phew, I see... what I’m seeing is an excess of recessed lights, at least two-thirds more than necessary 😀
I would first focus entirely on the floor plan. I don’t see a comfortable living space that corresponds to 170m² (1,830 sq ft).

Let me explain it from another perspective:
Living room as a passageway, bedroom as a passageway, staircase at the entrance, awkward hallway on the upper floor, narrow corridor, window above the bathtub – these are all situations that inevitably result from limited square meters in, for example, a terraced or semi-detached house of 110–130 m² (1,185–1,400 sq ft).
Where was your architect hiding?

I find it rather strange to place a relatively tiny house right next to a four-car garage. What is the background of this revolutionary concept?

My colleague would now say: fear eats the soul 😳

I would definitely swap the kitchen and living room. This way, kids with their friends won’t have to run through the living room every time they just want to grab a drink. When the kids are older, even late at night, that would feel too uncomfortable for me.
Place the couch against the wall next to the bathroom, the TV on the left wall, and make the window on that wall a bit larger and floor-to-ceiling. That way, you can enjoy the view comfortably from the couch.

If possible, I would also move the garage further forward and plan for a direct access from the garage to the utility room.
