ᐅ Floor Plan Design: Is the Ground Floor Hallway Wide Enough?

Hello everyone,

We have already made good progress with the floor plan for a single-family house (see image of the ground floor).
A friend of ours mentioned that the corridor leading to the kitchen/living area on the ground floor, with rough construction dimensions of 1.07 and 1.16 meters (3.5 and 3.8 feet), seems too narrow from his point of view. He suggested that we should make the house at least 25 centimeters (10 inches) wider to allow more space here. However, we would prefer to avoid this with regard to costs, as the house, measuring about 9.0 x 12.5 meters (30 x 41 feet), is already quite large and fully covers our desired room layout.

Grundriss einer Wohnung: Küche, Wohnen/Essen, Arbeitszimmer, Diele, Du/WC, Abstellraum.


Do you see any significant reason to consider that the corridor width in the hallway is too narrow and that we should revise the plan?

Many thanks and best regards

It was only the small staircase and the winding path in the kitchen that were problematic. I’ve seen far worse issues here and criticized them much more. Oh well, always these delicate people...

That’s just how it is, and the cheaper it is, the faster something tends to "wobble" there

Which statistics are you basing that on?

Hello,

no worries, I can handle it . The past few days have been very stressful with work, and we have taken another look at the drawings ourselves.

@kahoo674: Thank you very much for your designs. The first draft gave us some good ideas. Unfortunately, the square option is not practical on the plot because it would place us too close to the southwest boundary. The "T" shape in the bathroom is important to us.
When we have an updated version, I’ll get back to gather more feedback.

Best regards

Who are you planning with, @ufr? An independent architect or a construction company?
