Why has the design turned out as it is? For example:

What makes it especially good or bad in your opinion? Separation of master and children’s rooms. Large living and dining area. Large hallway.
What is the most important / fundamental question about the floor plan in 130 characters?
Are the children’s rooms too small? Is the bathroom too small if the master bedroom has its own entrance door?
we look forward to your feedback on the floor plan.

I would rotate the toilet on the upper floor and place it under the sloped ceiling. That's all I have. How and where are you planning the wardrobe?Thank you very much for your input.
Why do you think it makes more sense to have the toilet under the sloped ceiling? Wouldn't that be structurally challenging?
The wardrobe might possibly be placed under the stairwell.

Why are there two entrances to the bedroom? I think the one through the walk-in closet is enough. It saves unnecessary hallway space that no one really uses.
Sketch:
Sometimes you can’t see the forest for the trees. That’s a great idea! We will definitely consider it.
Of course, it’s important to ensure that the upper floor doesn’t feel too cramped.
Do you think the width of the shower is sufficient?
On which wall in the living room alcove would you place the TV?

Also, this avoids awkward corners collecting dirt next to the bathtub, and the toilet paper holder, if desired, can be mounted more easily and accessibly on the wall.
The shower should be at least 1 meter (3.3 feet) wide, as this is a rough construction measurement.

Shower with at least 1 meter (3 ft) width, since that’s a rough construction measurementWe have a knee wall height of 1 m (3 ft). As someone who is 1.90 m (6 ft 3 in) tall, I’m likely to hit my head there, right?
Okay, my wife has been trying to convince me for a while now that the shower should be widened by 15 cm (6 inches).
