House Design
Designer: Do-it-Yourself
Dislikes?: Entrance situation for children’s room (possibly?), cloakroom and kitchen sufficiently large?, bathroom layout (15 sqm (161 sq ft)!!!).

Here are the thumbnail views again; unfortunately, the forum software didn’t cooperate with the first post:

The only thing we’re a bit unsure about is the entrance area to the kids’ bedroom. On the other hand, it is more than 2m (6.5 ft) wide, and the kids’ rooms are big enough either way.

I preferred your last own design better – but this one works too.
How many meters (feet) is it from the closet to the wall?
I’m not a big fan of a “dressing area” in the bedroom... Otherwise, I would miss a storage option on the first floor and ground floor (vacuum cleaner, ironing board, drinks, etc.)

At least now one can see the beginning of the real-world planning process. All the “dream houses” you posted here last year were quite random and not connected to a realistic plan.
I hope not everyone has already used up their ideas with you and that they are still willing to engage with your designs when it comes to good suggestions.

Hello,
a few suggestions/questions:

• What about load-bearing walls? As far as I can see, your walls are not aligned on top of each other; so your roof would have to be cantilevered. Or did I miss something?
• I would remove the short wall on the ground floor next to the kitchen.
• Why don’t you make the top edges of all the children's room walls the same height (for example, the height of the wall next to the bedroom)?
• The many large windows in the bathroom are not ideal for its usability. The same applies to the study, where they take up a lot of space for furniture. I would consider installing just a single basic window on that side, which would make furnishing easier.

Top: Enlarge the hallway, align the walls with the children's rooms, slightly enlarge the dressing room, and place the door to the hallway instead of through the bedroom.
