We have a special challenge and have purchased a plot of land measuring 12m x 45m (39ft x 148ft), on which we can build 7m x 15m (23ft x 49ft). The design must be a single-story building with a gable roof, a knee wall of 1m (3ft), red brick facade, white windows, and a maximum roof pitch of 48 degrees.
The goal is a modern construction style with an open floor plan downstairs, as much as possible.
In addition to two children's rooms (ages 1 and 3), we also need a home office/guest room. There will be no basement. After several attempts working with construction companies and architects, we have now found a direction and would like to get your opinion.
What do you think? We have two main questions: How can we arrange the living room and kitchen in a practical way, and how can we avoid feeling too cramped in the attic? The kitchen should also be larger (longer), with the office/guest bathroom narrower as a result. The staircase will be a concrete staircase including a storage room with a door to the hallway to create more space for a coat area. Upstairs, the bedroom will be narrower to make room for the bathroom and gallery. The window distribution is also not yet ideal. An air-to-water heat pump is planned. The hallway is small, but so far there has been no better solution.
If anyone has alternative ideas for a floor plan within these parameters, we would be very grateful.
South is at the top of the plan. The living room faces west, and the street is to the east. The neighbors are located to the south and north along the long sides, each with a 2.5m (8ft) distance.
The floor area ratio and site coverage ratio are strictly regulated, but since we are in detailed discussions with the building authority and expect to receive a special permit, these points can be set aside here.

Just draw it on the floor plan and attach a site plan... it’s really unbelievable that these huge blocks of text are always written instead of simply adding a north arrow to the drawing and including the site plan.Then why don’t you do it?
I think this is how it is positioned.
North is at the top.

How old are the children? Is it worth opening up the attic rooms so they can enjoy the converted attic with a ladder over an open hallway for 10 to 15 years?
I would open the hallway on the upper floor all the way to the top and add two skylights.
The attic would then be located above the bedroom and bathroom.
Basically, I would replace the concrete staircase with a wooden one. With risers, you can also create a storage space underneath. A wooden or steel stringer staircase looks more open than a concrete staircase.
Nevertheless, I have made some adjustments to avoid placing the bathroom on the valuable south side and to use the staircase as a source of natural light. Also, a couch wall of about 3 meters (10 feet) would be useful, as your question was about the best way to furnish the living area.
Please use this only as an idea!

Why don’t you just do it then?Because I don’t want to chase after everyone. At least I have already aligned the site plan and floor plan into a consistent direction. I also expect some willingness to participate from the thread starter. They have their plan in mind. Ideally, all the information should be provided in the first post so it’s easy to refer to.Scout schrieb:

Often, the minimum distance of 2.5m (8 feet) for secondary building components can be exceeded on one side by up to one third. So, in this case, extending the stairwell by 1m (3 feet) would nicely relieve the entrance area. Talk to the architect about it!Unfortunately, that is not possible; we have already checked.

Take a look at Schwörerhaus for a narrow floor plan. They have a layout with a straight staircase measuring 7 x 11 meters (23 x 36 feet). If you extend it by about 4 meters (13 feet), you could add a home office on the ground floor. I quickly sketched this just as an idea – it’s not to scale and meant only as a rough illustration.Thanks, we already know that and unfortunately it doesn’t work that way.
