Other requirements
Client Requirements
Style, roof shape, building type: Gable roof with captain’s gable

House Design
Who designed the plan:
- Do-it-Yourself
What do you particularly like? Why? Gallery in the stairwell, which creates more space and brightness in the hallway below. Tiled walk-in showers, no more cleaning windows
What do you dislike? Why? Position of the chimney flue in the hallway downstairs
Price estimate according to architect/planner:
Personal price limit for the house including fittings:
Preferred heating system: Gas with solar thermal for domestic hot water, underfloor heating
If you had to give up details/extensions:
- Can you give up:
- Cannot give up: The gallery has already become quite fixed
Why is the design the way it is now?
A mix of many examples
What do you think makes it particularly good or bad?
Pleasant size of utility room, garage, and bedrooms. We also like that there is always another room between the children’s rooms and the master bedroom.
Improvement needed is the orientation, since the garage is located in the southeast and sunlight reaches the living area relatively late.
What is the most important/basic question about the floor plan summarized in 130 characters?
How can the floor plan be optimized in terms of sun orientation and placement of the chimney flue?

I’ve roughly planned the meter cabinet in terms of size. I’m currently planning a KNX installation, which will significantly increase the size of the cabinet. Since my general contractor hasn’t assigned an electrician yet, I’ve done some preliminary planning. With the star topology, many cables converge and need to be taken into account.
