Hello everyone,
below you will find our plan. We are looking forward to your feedback.
Development Plan / Restrictions
Plot size: 900 m² (9700 sq ft)
Slope: No
Site coverage ratio: 0.3 or max. 180 m² (1940 sq ft)
Floor area ratio: None
Building setback (building line and boundary): 5 meters (16 ft) each from the street and neighbors
Number of parking spaces: No requirement
Number of floors: 2
Roof type: Gable roof or hipped roof
Maximum heights/limits: Ridge height (TH): 7.5 m (25 ft), Eaves height (OK): 11.50 m (38 ft)
Maximum driveway width: 5 meters (16 ft)
Homeowner Requirements
Style, roof shape, building type: Gable roof
Basement, floors: Basement and 2 full floors
Number and age of occupants: 2 adults, 2 children: 34, 33, 8, 6
Office, family use or home office?: Office will also be used as a guest room
Number of overnight guests per year: 12
Open or closed architecture: Semi-open
Traditional or modern construction: Modern
Open kitchen, kitchen island: Kitchen island
Number of dining seats: 10
Fireplace: Yes
Built-in sound system: No
Balcony, roof terrace: Balcony
Garage, carport: Garage and carport
Utility garden, greenhouse: No
Additional wishes/special features/daily routine, including reasons why certain elements are wanted or not: A children’s bathroom on the upper floor is not necessarily desired. We prefer a utility room on the upper floor because we want to do laundry there.
House Design
Designed by: DIY
What do you especially like? Why?: Own wardrobe; kitchen and dining area (we cook a lot) are not visible from the living room sightline.
What do you not like? Why?: The terrace roof with 2.80 m (9.2 ft) is actually too short.
Budget limit for the house, including features: 750K
Preferred heating system: Geothermal heat
Why was the design created this way?
It is well adapted to the plot conditions (corner lot) and our family’s needs.
What do you think are its biggest strengths or weaknesses?
We think it fits well with our needs (spacious living room and large kitchen, plus a separate wardrobe). Perhaps the master bedroom is not optimal because it might be too tight for two bedside tables, partly due to the chimney.
What is the most important/basic question about the floor plan in 130 characters?
Do you think the floor plan will work well in practice? What improvements would you suggest?
We planned a sliding door to the kitchen but are unsure whether to include a door at all, and if so, what kind. The same question applies to the wardrobe. Would you adjust the window arrangement in the living room?

In the meantime, quite a bit has happened for us. Among other things, the structural engineering review caught up with us, and we had to make some adjustments to the planning. Now we are working on arranging the windows and would appreciate your support. The plan we will attach is based on our architect’s proposal but has been "manually" modified by us.
In the living room, we are considering a panoramic window. We want to equip the kitchen and dining area with lift-and-slide doors to access the terrace to the north and potentially have a view of the pool. We look forward to your feedback. Window planning is proving to be more challenging than expected.

Please also show the "original" version and explain the reasons for the adjustments – partly for the benefit of other forum members, and partly because otherwise the same changes will very likely be "coincidentally" suggested again ;-)

Peepshow in the shower in front of the corner window 😉 The corner window in the bathroom matches a similar corner window in the guest room / home office on the ground floor, which looks out onto the street and driveway. To keep the design consistent, we also planned a corner window with a higher sill height in the bathroom. We intended to have it frosted to avoid any peeping issues 🙂
When selecting the frosted glass, take a close look.
Hold a hand behind it at distances of 5, 30, and 60 cm (2, 12, and 24 inches).
You don’t want all the dog owners to include your display in their morning walk route.
One more thing I noticed: is the kitchen island located in the walkway to the patio door?

One more thing I noticed: is the kitchen island located in the pathway to the patio door? Thank you very much for the tip! Yes, we chose it intentionally that way. A standard balcony door would be in the way, so we want the sliding element to open towards the left, allowing access to the patio between the island and the kitchen back wall.
