Hello everyone,

I’m new here and would appreciate your ideas. We are planning a 150 sqm (1,615 sq ft) semi-detached house and are looking for the optimal floor plan.

Development Plan/Restrictions
The building envelope is used to its full extent.

Builders’ Requirements
- As clever a floor plan as possible
- The house will be occupied by two adults and two children (4 and 6 years old)
- The ground floor and upper floor should be able to be lived in separately (aging in place)
- No overly extravagant or expensive features should be used
- Basement with a technical room is available
- Prefer architectural style and conservative construction methods
- Open kitchen, but more of a kitchen-living area. The “living/media area” should be part of the kitchen-living space

What is the most important/basic question about the floor plan in 130 characters?
- Are there better ways to use the space and are the room sizes suitable for normal use?
- Does the layout suit a family and two living units for the future?

It is already mentioned on page 1.

It only says that there is one. Who knows where it is and what it looks like?

The issue is not that it exists… but that the plan and further details are missing.
I have been asking about this constantly.

I highly recommend everyone to simulate their floor plan in 3D using a free program like Home by Me! This saved us from catastrophic mistakes.

When you furnish the rooms with the program, you immediately get a sense of the dimensions.

An architect without quotation marks serves the same purpose ;-)

I was just about to say that.

...And anyone who has at least some experience with house design or even just living spaces can immediately spot errors in a 2D plan.
