Hello everyone...
After our first floor plan attempt failed completely, we worked with the architect to develop two more ground floor versions and one for the upper floor. I would like to know which ones you find good or bad, and what you generally like or dislike about the floor plans?! Also, the pantry door is drawn a bit oddly; it won’t actually look like that...

We just wanted to highlight the practical benefits of a walk-in closet and to refute the argument that “clothes get dusty.” In the end, whoever decides for or against a walk-in closet has at least given it some thought and weighed the pros and cons.
I can still hit the snooze button on the alarm, but when my partner walks over to the wardrobe (and immediately bumps into the door), opens it (suppressed curse because he caught his toe on the bedpost), opens the first drawer—wrong one—closes it again, opens the second drawer, closes the wardrobe door, opens the next one, takes out a shirt, and so on... that’s when I’m definitely wide awake...
...so, long story short: I’m really looking forward to our walk-in closet.

The most annoying thing is the light that gets turned on and stays on for a long time.
A walk-in closet is very necessary for some, a nice-to-have for many, and not needed at all for others.
By the way, I am one of the "unconventional" people who live without doors in front of the clothes racks and can see the full range of clothing every day when entering the room. Before any dust settles, I usually have already worn and washed the clothes. So dust doesn’t accumulate that quickly there.
Best regards in brief

I have some items that I rarely wear, or winter clothes that gather dust in the summer and vice versa. But that’s also a matter of personal preference (my brother and his wife live without a wardrobe in the traditional sense).
No, no lights on here; we just use the phone flashlight, and when he pulls underwear out of the drawer, the phone falls with a crash or he holds it in a way that shines right in my eyes. Of course, he’s terribly embarrassed about it... but it definitely wakes me up.

Well, I’m generally an advocate for staircases that start only after the cloakroom, not before it. That way, you don’t carry as much dirt upstairs and don’t have to walk in socks over melted snow and gravel. This is where the recent trend of leaving out the vestibule backfires, shifting the dirt zone into the “cozy” part of the hallway.
Besides, I believe there shouldn’t be any mud at all: you can place mats outside the door—not just to say “Welcome.” And the tradition, still common in older houses, of installing a boot scraper by the entrance wouldn’t do any harm to new homes either. That way, you scrape the mud off your boots first, and the mat takes care of phase two. Of course, this only works if you don’t walk over it distractedly like a daydreamer. Has the generation born with their hands in their pockets forgotten this?

Lol... we have everything covered, and yet there’s still some dirt, a little piece of earth, dust, etc. right by the front door.
We have two young children (2 and 4 years old), the exterior is still a construction site, and I’m really glad that the stairs are not right at the front door.
Even if it’s just a bit of dust, it still sticks to socks and gets spread around.
