Hello dear forum members.
I have been quietly following for some time and would now like to take the opportunity to gather some tips and advice. We are currently planning our house and would like to share our initial drafts with you.
We are completely flexible in the planning and want a functional home for 4 people. Important features for us are a kitchen island, fireplace, and walk-in shower on the ground floor.
We would appreciate any tips and suggestions, as we have never planned or built a house before.
Thank you very much in advance.

Exactly, according to the development plan, 3 m (10 feet) to the service road. Alright, then just the classic layout. My house is still suitable.

45° walls are so 1980s Here, the corner entrances of the rooms mainly shift the apparently saved hallway space into the circulation area within the rooms.

How should I ideally adjust the dimensions for our plot? The depth of the building envelope (building boundary) is actually what matters.

The 0.25 floor space index (FSI) only applies to about 560 sqm (6000 sq ft) for us, because the kink plus strip areas have to be deducted here! (We asked the district office, apparently there is a new directive) Planting obligation strips and low plot ratio together are tough. In my opinion, directives do not have the authority to enforce the restrictions of the zoning plan beyond their scope.

The relevant factor is actually the depth of the building envelope.Has it been mentioned anywhere here?I

Was this mentioned anywhere here?Yes, in the first post I wrote 12m (40 feet) wide, but I actually meant the depth. 3m (10 feet) from the street, then 12m (40 feet) deep across the property.I

The depth of the building setback is actually what matters.
A planting strip requirement AND a low floor area ratio together is tough. In my opinion, the guidelines do not have the authority to enforce the restrictions of the development plan beyond their scope.Yes, we actually did not see this as too problematic; we were happy to have gotten a plot at a fair price through the municipality.
