Hello dear forum community,
we are planning to build for the second time. The first time, five years ago, we built 175 sqm (1885 sq ft). Now we are moving and want to start the adventure again.
We have already looked at several options and have decided on this design. We are a family of six. Now we would like to hear what others think, because after about the tenth change, you don’t see everything so clearly anymore. The windows in this design are also not yet exactly how we want them and are currently being adjusted by the draftsman, but overall, it fits quite well.
It will be a KfW 55 standard house, equipped with an air-to-water heat pump (geothermal energy is not possible due to the water protection zone, and there is no gas supply in the building area), as well as photovoltaics with a storage system, a central ventilation system, and possibly a hydronic fireplace (wood or pellets).
We are curious and wish you all a happy Easter.

But ... this is supposed to be a quiet residential area, right?
This narrow window in the living room ... it always reminds me of a prison. And Milkies’ comment about winter sun is really valid. Until three years ago, I had an apartment with the main room facing east ... okay. But now my main room has windows facing east and south. That’s really great, especially in winter but also in summer, because it creates such a nice bright space.
What does your architect say? Also regarding energy effects and so on.
