Information from the web (including this forum) and contacts with other builders
What makes it especially good or bad in your view? Don’t know
What is the most important / fundamental question about the floor plan summarized in 130 characters?
Because of this forum, the building shell is planned as it currently is. The lower residential floor is to be half embedded into the slope on the valley side. On the open side are the two bedrooms and the main entrance. To the right, the double garage, also partly embedded in the slope. In the slope are the utility room and a bathroom. The ground floor above is planned entirely for living, with terraces and garden access, plus a small bathroom.
Fire away and thank you all.
Plan top is north.

WOW!!! I really love surprise bungalows 😀
I'm only seeing the results now. I haven't followed this thread since last year.
It turned out nicely. I like the shape of the triple windows.
Your natural stone wall is amazing. May I ask how much that cost?
But one thing disappoints me: why didn’t you install the aquarium in the partition wall between the bathroom and living room? Then you could also enjoy the fish view from the toilet :p

Surprise bungalowsThanks, but it’s not a bungalow. It’s a two-story house. Only the sleeping area is downstairs and the living area is upstairs.ypg schrieb:

In total, there are 85 tons. Further down, not visible in the photos, there is also a slope reinforcement made of granite blocks.

You chose a very nice color shade for your house. It looks much more stylish than the classic white, and the view from your terrace must be amazing. Just missing the infinity pool 😀 Thank you. We saw this color shade some time ago in a neighboring town and thought it matched the gray window frames really well. I almost wished it was a shade darker.
Yes, the terrace has a really beautiful view over the Lauter valley.
We fell in love with this view four years ago when we first saw the plot.
The land was relatively affordable, but the additional costs caused by the slope shouldn’t be overlooked.

Hehe. Once the aquarium is set up, it’s enough to view it from one side. This allows for more design options and gives the fish more hiding places.What exactly is planned? Size, stocking?P

What exactly is planned? Size, stocking?It’s a 650-liter (170-gallon) tank with the dimensions 180x60x60 cm (71x24x24 inches). Previously, I had a South American biotope tank. It will probably be one again. But I’m also considering an African biotope this time.
I’ve operated the tank before, but it has been empty for the past 4 years.
I first need to test if it’s still watertight.
