I would appreciate it if some of you could take a critical look at our floor plan.
We are planning to build a Frisian-style house with just under 160 m² (1,722 sq ft) of living space on the ground floor and upper floor. Additionally, a versatile basement will be constructed, for example, to be used as a home theater. The location of the house can be seen in the site plan.
Currently, there are two of us, but we plan to have two children in the foreseeable future.
The guest room on the ground floor is intended to be connected to the pantry after 35 + X(X) years, so that we can live on one level in old age.
We are quite pleased with the floor plan at first glance, but it can’t hurt for you to take another look to help us avoid any major design mistakes.
Thank you very much and best regards!

Too many windows on the north side... an unnecessary sloped wall extending over two floors... 45° walls are always considered a compromise among architects.
This makes the living room too cluttered. Why not have an open kitchen and practical 90° walls? And if an open kitchen is not preferred, then at least straight walls and a door from the kitchen to the living room...
The windows on the upper floor are too narrow.

45-degree walls are often used when no other option is left.
For 160 square meters (1,722 square feet), I would expect the architect to have more experience in designing a living space that deviates from the standard, rather than just adding sloped walls everywhere.
But could it be that sticking to the symmetry of a Frisian house creates a planning constraint?

The last Frisian house (18th century) I visited had a staircase outside the entrance's mudroom area and didn’t require any 45-degree workaround solutions.
Since we’re on the topic of deletions, maybe also consider the text box on the site plan. Is approval for publication available?

You can’t really say anything about the windows without elevations anyway.
I really don’t like the 45-degree walls at all.
But what concerns me more is the placement on the lot. Is it even allowed to position it so diagonally?
It definitely matches the 45-degree corners inside. For me, that would be absolutely not an option.
