Hello dear forum,
we are planning to start building our house in 2018 and already have a first draft of our floor plan.
We want a single-story house of about 160 square meters (approximately 1,722 square feet) with a pitched roof and a glazed gable front in the living area. The plot is 2000 square meters (approximately 21,528 square feet).
There will be 4 people living in the house, with both parents working full time. The house is surrounded by fields on the north and west sides. To the south, there is a street with fields beyond it, and only to the east does the plot border a neighboring property. For this reason, the living room gable faces northwest.
I look forward to constructive criticism and hope for possible suggestions for improvement, as we have had little experience so far.
Best regards

Well, there are also financial aspects that limit you. Not everyone can afford a large bungalow.
The bungalow can definitely become much larger if, instead of a Y-shaped design, you build a straight or L-shaped bungalow. With the same financial investment...

But I’ve noticed with our bungalow that it’s already difficult to clearly define spaces at 14 x 14.5 m (46 x 48 feet). Our children also have to pass through the open hallway. I found it much too cramped and dark with a partition wall. That's true, you usually only build once and should try to get the best possible result for yourself. But fortunately, this varies somewhat for everyone;)
With the children, I’m not too strict about that, since they don’t have to walk through the living room to get to the bathroom, and the toilet is even closer, both located in the hallway.

No, but always through the area that everyone enters from outside with street shoes. Even if they only use the guest toilet. And of course, for the bathroom at the back. So, for example, with the freshly bathed child, you have to go out of the bathroom, through the dirty zone at the entrance, and into the room.
Unlike Evolith’s bungalow. There, there isn’t a “real” partition, but a “conceptual” one. And that is completely sufficient. Here, the children take a path to the bathroom that is separated from the entrance area. Much better!
