Why Is the Design the Way It Is? For example:
The house is located directly on the street. Distance to the neighbors on both sides is 3 meters (10 feet), so no possibility to adjust the width.
The entrance is on the side. Since the house faces the street, the living room, dining area, and kitchen are planned on the north side, facing the garden. All other rooms face the street side. Knee wall is 1.80 m (6 feet), roof pitch 30 degrees. Bedrooms and bathroom also face the garden side.
The pantry is currently hidden but we are considering integrating it into the technical room. Underfloor heating with heat pump. Photovoltaic system is also installed (west side).

I have to admit, I find the floor plan and site layout quite uncreative and mediocre for an architect. What has been discussed in 6 rounds to arrive at this result?
What bothers me most is the entrance opposite the garage, the access to the living room through the kitchen with the slanted wall, the dark kitchen, and the pointless kink in the children's room.
I would be interested in the precisely dimensioned site plan and the zoning regulation text regarding the building line as well as the maximum size of the building envelope. We were/are also not very satisfied with the architect.
For example, the house was rotated, we had a different staircase, etc.
The slanted door to the living room will become even larger because the pantry is moving down. It is supposed to be a loft door then.
The entrances opposite the garage are not possible otherwise due to the conditions, without having one side of the house completely without windows, or am I mistaken?
The kink in the children’s room is caused by the study.

Why don’t you have the data? It’s your property, not the architect’s.The surveyor was commissioned through the architect.You don’t need to describe to me what everyone can already see.
With a strict development plan including a building line, you will need to provide the full text along with the exact details of your plot. Otherwise, it’s not possible to assess anything here.
So far, it appears very uncreative to me. If it were mine, I would give my house a proper setback. (No, that’s not just a simple rearward shift). But to determine that, we would need to know exactly what the text says.
