Hello everyone,
I would like to hear/read your opinions about our floor plan!
After a lot of consideration and planning, our current floor plan looks like this. It will be an urban villa (10.50 m x 10.50 m (34 ft 5 in x 34 ft 5 in), KFW 55 energy standard).
The entrance faces the street (private driveway).
To the right of the house (street side) there is a small play street.
After finalizing this floor plan, we have already decided to swap the bathroom and the bedroom on the upper floor. This makes more sense because of the kitchen on the ground floor (shorter routing for utility lines).
The heating system (probably a heat pump) will be installed in the garage (technical room).
The electrical supply including smart home system will be located in the utility room, along with the ventilation system.
The shower (about 90 cm x 90 cm (35 in x 35 in)) on the ground floor is not yet fixed in place! Most likely, it makes the most sense to enlarge the wall towards the utility room slightly (creating a sort of niche).
A kitchen island is planned in the kitchen.
I hope you can make some sense of the information so far.
I would really appreciate it if some of you could take a look at the whole thing.
Best regards

Best regardsThe orientation of the kitchen does not allow for an additional window to be planned, as it faces the garage. We assume that the kitchen receives enough natural light!

... and that is why, for example, the floor plan is not acceptable!
You can give many explanations as to why or how, but it does not change the fact that the kitchen has no window, meaning you have to rely on artificial lighting, while the guest bathroom has two windows, which are not really necessary for urinating and showering... all just for the sake of the external appearance!
At the same time, the living room is too small, and the dining area and hallway are far too large.
Since you don’t want to give up the symmetrical corner windows, I would suggest swapping the kitchen and living area 🙂

Should it be a "dressing room" with a wardrobe or a walk-in closet with open shelves and clothing rods? You can also place a wardrobe directly in the bedroom. A walk-in closet, on the other hand, offers much more design flexibility (you can get ideas from the large Swedish furniture store, or buy custom-cut shelves from the hardware store) and you can basically store twice as much clothing and laundry compared to a "classic" wardrobe (measured by wall length). And if it’s important for you to change clothes quietly and without waking your sleeping spouse/partner/bedroom roommate, you should seriously consider access via the hallway.
Not everything that is beautiful is practical. Not everything that is practical is beautiful. That reminds me of shoes, but it’s no different when planning a house. 🙂 Our plan so far was to build a walk-in closet accessible from the bedroom. However, we have since accepted that the bathroom will only have one door!
But it’s not finalized yet!
Best regards

...that we are building a walk-in closet, accessible through the bedroom.This means the person sleeping will always be disturbed whenever the person awake wants to change clothes — great plan...

If you imagine that after about three years, the usual clutter accumulates in the garage, along with some shelves, the driver’s path to the door will be blocked by their own car.
