ᐅ Floor plan design shortly before submitting the building permit application

Hello everyone!
As some users have requested before, I’m now starting a new thread with the current planning of our detached house, which is about to be finalized.
These are the preliminary drawings for the building permit / planning permission application, and I have one last chance to review them and point out any issues.
It still seems to me that there is less than 1.20m (4 feet) of space between the two wardrobes in the dressing room. Or am I seeing this wrong? Apparently, the rooms on the left and right were overlooked and not adjusted accordingly.
Two Velux ceiling spotlights are still planned to illuminate the upper floor hallway.
In the basement, on the right side in the upper room, a window similar to the one on the left basement side is an option.
We still haven’t decided on the T30 fire-rated door to the garage, even though it is shown in the plans. Most likely, for safety reasons and the limited use of the kitchen at the other end of the house, we will eventually forgo it.
User 11ant pointed out that the right window in child’s room 2 is suboptimally positioned. However, this could still be changed after submitting the building permit / planning permission application. Our architect thinks moving the window to the left would negatively affect the house’s exterior appearance. We’ll have to see about that.

-> Soil survey indicates occasional rising seepage water (clay soil)That would correspond to exposure class 2.
According to waterproof concrete guidelines, minimum thicknesses are 20 cm (8 inches) for cast-in-place concrete, 24 cm (9.5 inches) for precast walls (or 20 cm (8 inches) with F6 concrete).
It could probably work, at least for cast-in-place concrete.
However, I think it’s wiser to avoid it, since those are minimum thicknesses.
The room has at least two, usually three, walls for electrical outlets. Unless the basement is really going to be used as living space, you could do without outlets on every wall there. Not to mention these would likely be the most expensive outlets in the entire house.
Hi Alex, thanks for the information. The construction will be in cast-in-place concrete. The room is intended as a fitness/guest room or could also be used as an office. It’s a room of about 25 square meters (270 square feet) with effectively 2.5 to 3 exterior walls – concrete (imagine an L-shaped floor plan). So it will be a fully functional living space, with a light well to ensure there is enough natural light for residential use. Surface-mounted installation is therefore out of the question. My idea is rather to concentrate the outlets on just one concrete exterior wall (each in the corners on the left and right), and to avoid the expensive concrete box fittings, I’m considering installing a pre-wall construction using 10 cm (4 inches) Ytong blocks or a drywall system on that wall. We’ll see what it ends up being.

Unfortunately, part of the soil is classified as Z2, which significantly increases disposal costs.
The contractor asked me whether it would make sense to install a conduit under the garage to potentially run electrical cables, water pipes, etc., to the garden later on. The electrician says it’s not necessary since a distribution box will be installed in the garage anyway. Is such a conduit useful for something like a future lawn sprinkler system, or what practical benefit could it actually provide? There will already be a water tap on the back of the house, so there should be water available on that side of the property as well.

Give him a (Ferrero) kiss for being so thoughtful. In my next life, I’ll become an advocate for empty conduits.
