I would be interested to know if you see any potential for optimization or if there are details/distances that seem completely unrealistic or impractical.

House Design
Designer:
- Architect from a construction company
What do you particularly like? Why?
- open design
- all rooms we need
What do you not like? Why?
- corridor too narrow?
- possibly a half-landing staircase (is that possible / planner says it probably doesn’t fit)
- little wall space for furniture
Cost estimate according to architect/planner: 400,000 €
Personal budget limit for the house, including fittings:
Preferred heating system: air-to-water heat pump
If you have to give up anything, which details/upgrades
- can you give up: fireplace
- cannot give up: office / shower/WC on the ground floor
Why does the design look like it does now?
- visited a show home with a similar layout / 2 adjustment loops with the planner have been completed

As mentioned, there have been worse situations.
Here is a rough sketch with some dimensions: garage 6 x 8m (20 x 26 ft), house 11.50 x 9.50m (38 x 31 ft).
The west-facing sun is basically blocked out – usually the most important part of the day for most workers. Also, the garage seems to be the central building – too prominent for my taste.
If it were mine, it would probably look something like this:

I would base the location of the house on the development to the south. Possibly even move the house slightly further north.Similar topics
