ᐅ Initial Floor Plan Draft: Open-Plan Kitchen and Living Area – Discussion and Feedback

Hello,

I would like to hear your opinions on an initial draft (sketch) we received yesterday from one of our preferred construction companies.

Plot size: 835m² (8984 sq ft), gable roof with a 35-45° pitch, slightly sloped terrain.

The design features a gable roof with a 35° pitch. The southern side is elongated to allow for as much space as possible for solar panels. We did not want skylights.

We plan to live there as a family of four (currently two) and, due to our jobs, work more or less regularly from home – therefore 2 work rooms + 2 children’s rooms.

We specifically wanted a separate living room and to place the main living area more in the kitchen/dining space. There is a sliding door between the living room and the dining area. Between the hallway and the dining area, there is a (somewhat undefined) glass/door element.

I would appreciate some initial feedback – unfortunately, due to the “sketch nature,” I don’t have exact measurements.

Regards,
Markus

The dimensions would be interesting to know. I fear the house would need to be quite large for the floor plan to work.

May I ask what the estimated cost for this design is?

We can let you know by Friday whether we would like to receive an offer based on the sketch – so unfortunately, I can’t give you a price yet 🙁

Best regards

Judging by how heavily this one was criticized, it must be free 😀
