House Design

What do you particularly like? Why?
What do you dislike? Why?
Price estimate according to architect/planner:
I expect 3000 to 3100 EUR / m² (279 to 289 USD / sq ft)
Personal price limit for the house, including equipment: 900,000 EUR plus garage
Preferred heating technology: heat pump with horizontal trench collector
Why is the design the way it is now? e.g.:
We have now drawn several floor plans. All our ideas and priorities have been included. We would like your opinions on where you see potential for improvement. The building’s layout is very important to us. We deliberately avoid dormers, bay windows, etc.
Attached you will find the floor plan and site plan. (The house is to be built parallel and as close as possible to the street)
The difference between two contour lines is 1m (3.3 feet).
The arrangement of the rooms is intentionally chosen. Please do not discuss that the children’s rooms are on the north side.
Currently undeveloped, entirely meadow.
We would greatly appreciate your feedback and even more your suggestions for improvements.

The AZ would not include a cellar shaft. The slope should make it possible to avoid needing one. Then you also have to plan the rooms according to the slope. But you don’t consider that anywhere.
The AZ is actually underground, while the northern part of the basement protrudes above ground. That’s why you don’t have a terrace or an outdoor entrance on the ground floor.
That’s why this thing belongs in the recycle bin.

Is the house intended to look like this?

The living area (AZ) is actually below ground level; instead, the north side of the basement sticks out of the ground. That’s why you don’t have a terrace or outdoor access on the ground floor.
That’s why this should be discarded. No, the southwest corner is the one that sticks out the most from the ground – that’s where the living area (AZ) is. The northeast corner is the lowest.

The soil report says that the basement can begin up to 3 meters (10 feet) below natural ground level at the northeast corner of the house. Bedrock appears at about 7 meters (23 feet) deep.
Your sketch is not easy for me to understand as a layperson. But it is clear that the northeast corner of the basement is the deepest in the ground, and the southwest corner the shallowest.
What you’re telling me is that if I want to enter the front door at ground level (on the right), the basement door to the outside will be underground. Is that correct?

Ah... cool! Your overview photos are quite misleading. And the windows in the basement as well. This makes the terrace appear less unrealistic, and the window for the utility room in the basement looks more plausible.
Are there any other points of criticism?
