ᐅ Floor Plan Design Yard 3 Children’s Rooms, Feeling Frustrated...

Good evening,
I’m having trouble progressing with my/our floor plan.
I want to create a mudroom off the garage where the kids and dog can leave their dirty clothes. At the same time, I would like a separate utility room, pantry, and mechanical room.
The northwest is true north, meaning the yard is located at the top of the floor plan. Currently, with the old house, you drive along the right side of the house to reach the yard at the back. This is where everything happens.
To the left of the house, there is an old building that has been renovated into a holiday home.
Where and how should we plan the back entrance, the mudroom, and efficient routes to the kitchen for groceries?
My husband really wants a gallery in the entrance area.
Do you have any suggestions?
Best regards

I get the impression that perfectly symmetrical windows were distributed across the building shell, and only then were the rooms planned accordingly, followed by a clumsy design of the entrances. Genuine spatial planning based on living space principles didn’t really exist then or now. In my view, the floor plan clearly shows the kind of guaranteed headache you get when you start designing directly on the ground floor rather than first "mathematically" allocating the rooms and only moving to the drawing stage once everything is balanced. And yes, “Make it rhyme or I’ll eat you” (meaning symmetrical at all costs, the aesthetic of those with difficulty appreciating proportions) was apparently also a high priority on the requirements list.
