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...

I think that would be better. Otherwise, swap the kitchen and guest room. That would make the whole area more comfortable as a family hub. Whether you separate the living room or the kitchen with a full wall, half wall, or three-quarter wall is up to your preference.

Thank you for your feedback... You're welcome. My floor plans are also being heavily criticized right now. So I understand how you feel.
So, ladies, be a bit confident. If we had posted our floor plan here, the usual comments would be: hallway too narrow, no coat closet, kitchen facing north, garage on the wrong side, living room not properly zoned, no logical place for the TV, front door too narrow, stair entry intrudes into the walkway, and so on. So what? For us, the kitchen is a workspace and needs to be connected to the utility room, forming a unit. The living room has the stereo system; the TV is in the guest room. The stair entry is clearly visible to anyone with normal vision. We never had a coat closet, and it was fine. The garage is on the east side because on the west side live family H., and they are nice—no garage will go there. We don’t yet know about the east side... so it goes there. And a bungalow is not a castle; a 110cm (43 inches) front door is sufficient.

So, now ladies, be a bit confident. If we had posted our floor plan here, the usual comments would be: hallway too narrow, no cloakroom, kitchen facing north, garage on the wrong side, living room not zoned, no logical spot for the TV, front door too narrow, staircase entrance extends into the walking path, etc. So what? For us, the kitchen is a workspace and needs to be next to the utility room—they form a unit. The living room has the stereo system; the TV is in the guest room. The staircase entrance is obvious for people who aren’t visually impaired. We never had a cloakroom and always managed. The garage is on the east side because the neighbors live on the west side, and they're nice; no garage will be built there. We don’t know yet about the east side... so there it goes. And a bungalow is not a castle—a 110cm (43 inch) front door is enough...I am fully confident. I like my floor plan. Now I’m just uncertain because of the bedroom. What does “zoniert” mean?
