House Design

What do you like especially? Why? = the separation of living room with kitchen and dining area
Preferred heating technology: air heat pump

If you had to give up, on which details/features
- can you give up: maybe the pantry
- cannot give up:

Why is the design the way it is?
For example: a lot of self-designed plans and visits to prefab homes

Hello! We already have another plan shared in this forum, but we are considering changing from a straight staircase to a spiral staircase.

What do you think about my design?
Is there enough space for the pantry behind the kitchen?
How do you find the room sizes?

Modern wooden staircase with glass railing in a bright interior, light through windows

If the window is positioned lower like this, it should provide more than enough light.

Modern wooden staircase with open risers in a bright interior with natural daylight.

An open staircase allows even more light to pass through.

Here is the change with the 25cm (10 inches).
I'm not sure if it really makes much difference...

I like it better this way; you have a great, spacious kitchen and dining area! With a 400 cm (13 ft) kitchen front, you can fit 360 cm (12 ft) of standard cabinets plus panels or an additional narrow cabinet. For people who are perfectionists about symmetry in kitchen fronts, this might not be ideal 😉 The living room is also comfortably large at 25 m² (270 ft²).

In the bathroom, I would place the door in the center, the toilet under the window, and the sink opposite. This way, the door won't be right up against the wall.
