Hello everyone,
I would appreciate your feedback on the floor plans.
Development Plan / Restrictions:
· Plot size: 1,200 m² (18 m (59 inches) wide)
· Slope: south-facing hill, street to the north
· Site coverage ratio: 0.3
· Floor area ratio: 0.6
· Building envelope, building line, and boundary: see "enlarged building envelope" 12 x 14 m (39 x 46 feet)
· Edge development: garages
· Number of parking spaces: 3 required according to building authority
· Construction type: open building layout
· Building setback: 3 m (10 feet)
· Roof type: pitched roofs 15-30°, hipped roofs to be avoided, see regulations
· Orientation: ridge direction of the buildings parallel to each other
· Exterior design: see section 6 of the regulations
Homeowners’ Requirements
Preliminary: The homeowners (born 1982 male, 1988 female, and two children born 2014 female, 2016 male) want to live on two floors (basement and ground floor). A third children’s bedroom should also be included. The third floor (attic) should be accessible barrier-free.
· Style: Bauhaus (optionally exposed concrete)
· Roof design: large south-facing side (for solar panels, photovoltaics)
· Building type: two-family house
· Basement and floors: basement, ground floor, attic
· Number of occupants and ages as above: (2 + 3 in basement and ground floor, 2 + 1 in attic)
o Space requirements attic: 2 bedrooms, 1 flexible floor plan bathroom, open living/dining/kitchen area, utility room
o Space requirements ground floor: 1 master bedroom, walk-in closet, master bathroom, large open living/dining/kitchen area, wardrobe, storage room
o Space requirements basement: 3 children’s bedrooms, children’s bathroom, optional play corridor, boiler room, cellar, utility room
· Open or closed architecture: open
· Conservative or modern construction: modern
· Kitchen: open kitchen with island (at least on ground floor)
· Balcony, roof terrace: likely sensible on all three floors considering exposed concrete
· Parking spaces: carports if possible, which can later be converted into garages (initial cost saving)
· Heating/thermal technology: air-to-water heat pump (underfloor heating), optional photovoltaics
· Windows: large window areas on the south side, optionally wide, low windows above the kitchen worktop on the ground floor
· Energy efficiency: KfW 55 standard
· High sound insulation (especially for the ceiling of the attic, separate residential unit)

I hope you will continue to support us with feedback during the next phase, even though we haven't accepted everything. Bedroom: The 60 cm (24 inches) planned on the left side for the wardrobe already causes issues in the shell construction, as the mason will place a 60 cm (24 inches) wall section up to the door...
Then you still have to consider the door frame, baseboard, and enough clearance to the wardrobe back panel (on the exterior wall!!!)
From a design perspective, you quickly need 70 to 75 cm (28 to 30 inches) rough space if you want a narrow 60 cm (24 inches) wardrobe (which often tends to be 70 cm (28 inches) deep). And given the length along the exterior wall in a new build, a 10 cm (4 inches) gap is better than 5 cm (2 inches) for ventilation; otherwise, there is a risk of mold on the laminated back panel...
From the outside, the window view also seems too plain to me. I would choose corner windows with staggered offsets across the plane, such as right - left - right. Of course, this complicates things inside again.

How much elevation difference do you have?
I think our structural engineer and the geologist he consulted would have a heart attack.
We have 13 meters (43 feet) and a 42-degree slope.42 degrees? That’s quite steep. The property’s highest point on the west boundary is at 383.34 m (1,258.6 ft) and the lowest at 364.60 m (1,196.2 ft). That’s a difference of 18.74 m (61.5 ft). The length of the west boundary is 72.66 m (238.5 ft). This results in a slope of about 14.5° or 25.8%.

sichtbeton8221 Nov 2017 11:58 What seems spectacular to me is the bathroom wall by the shower. Is it made of glass due to lack of light? I think that’s really cool.Do you mean the wall marked "white" in the bathroom on the ground floor? The wall between the bathroom and the hallway will have a skylight / transom window, and the one inside the bathroom will not extend all the way to the ceiling.

The one from the bathroom to the hallway will have a transom window, the one inside the bathroom will not be built up to the ceiling. Yes, I meant the one from the bathroom to the hallway. I thought it would have a frosted glass insert. That would be great.
On the other hand, I don’t quite understand how a transom window in a wall is supposed to look.

At 45 degrees, you have a 1 meter (3.3 feet) rise over 1 meter (3.3 feet) of distance. Roughly speaking, 42 degrees over 13 meters (43 feet) is just under 12 meters (39 feet) of slope.
Is that correct??
