Hello everyone,

We are about to submit our building permit (planning permission) application and are hoping to get some feedback and possible suggestions for improvement here.

Unfortunately, we don’t like the attic floor at all. The slanted wall looks like a makeshift solution, while the kids’ room is way too large for that.

Otherwise, almost everything fits our needs. We would like to add a sliding door between the walk-in closet and the hallway to create two access points.

We would appreciate any suggestions.

Good luck, milkie

We do not want the master bedroom in the attic.

And wouldn’t a 3m (10 feet) window be too large for the children’s rooms?

We originally did not want an open staircase, but we need to reconsider that.

Hello milkie,
I’m not sure. It all feels a bit half-baked. This is your house! Once the walls are up, it will be difficult to make changes.
I would rather find the perfect solution now that really excites you. I wouldn’t start before that.

One more thing I’m curious about: how high is the knee wall at the top? Is there one at all, or does the roof rest directly on the ceiling?
Good luck!

According to the cross-section, there is no knee wall.

According to the cross-section, there is a knee wall, but this height is missing, as well as the 2-meter (6 ft 7 in) line! Important to know! 🙂

The roof sits directly on the first floor ceiling.
However, we are now considering a steeper roof pitch and/or dormer windows, hoping this will allow for a better design.
Tomorrow we will contact the architect.
