Hello everyone,
we are about to submit our building application. The floor plan is now ready, and I would like to ask if you possibly have any suggestions for improvements! (Sometimes you become a bit blind to things and don’t notice everything anymore.)
Development plan / restrictions:
Plot size: 1200 sqm (24m x 50m / 79ft x 164ft)
Slope: NO
Plot ratio (floor space index): 0.2
Floor area ratio: unknown
Building envelope, building line and boundary: 21m wide, 18m deep (69ft x 59ft)
Number of floors: single-story
Roof shape: no requirements
Architectural style: no requirements
Orientation: no requirements
Other: Access to the plot over a small ditch.
Client requirements:
Architectural style, roof shape, building type: gabled front
Number of people, age: 2 adults (27–28) + planned 2 children in the next 2–3 years
Space requirements on the ground floor: kitchen facing the street with utility room next to garage, guest WC with shower, living room with fireplace. (I am still thinking about the TV corner. The sofa is too far from the TV, but if I move it closer, it might collide with the fireplace? On the floor plan, it’s hard to judge the size.) Do you have any ideas?
Space requirements on the upper floor: 1 bedroom, 2 children’s rooms, (walk-in closet should NOT be directly connected to the bedroom! I get up earlier in the morning and want to quietly pick out my clothes.)
Office: family use or home office?: office / guest room
Open kitchen, kitchen island: no open kitchen. Kitchen island possibly like drawn? We haven’t been to a kitchen studio yet...
Number of dining seats in kitchen: 5
Number of dining seats in living room: 9+
Fireplace: yes, in the living room (we want to keep the masonry)
Music / stereo wall: I will consider during the shell construction whether to install speaker cables
Balcony, roof terrace: NO
Garage, carport: yes, double garage 6m x 9m (20ft x 30ft) on the boundary
Utility garden, greenhouse: planned, but we are not in a hurry.
I hope this is detailed enough to hear your opinions.
Thank you in advance.

That sounds interesting. Can I view your floor plan somewhere? You can. Just go to my profile; there’s a website linked there. It’s designed for three children and has two bathrooms on the upper floor. But maybe you can get some ideas from it.
