The slope is at the bottom.

Maybe you should reveal a bit more about the plot than just a blank white sheet?! There isn’t even a grid to check room sizes, nor the slope, nor the 16-meter (52 feet) boundary, nor a street.
If you say north is somewhere around 11 o’clock, we still have no idea where the street is or how the plot is oriented. Nothing.

You can’t really say anything constructive based on that.
Or what exactly do you want?
Oh, where can a pantry be integrated? You mean just squeeze it in somewhere?

The plans are not presentable yet—guess I was a bit early with my post.

The first thing a future homeowner should do is really get to know the plot, understand it, take measurements, experiment. Draw where everything is to understand what the plot means: light, existing vegetation, street, noise, and people.
In this case, specifically the slope. Then you have to draw the plot from the side—yourself. Take colored pencils from your kids and get started.

But that doesn’t include the retaining wall, right?

Honestly, I can’t see a standard catalog house or a promotional project from a building company fitting on a slope like the one you described. I see a basement plus another living floor. A slope is not basic school level. A slope is A-level. You need a specialist or architect for that.
