Hello everyone,
Development Plan/Restrictions
Plot size: 713 sqm (7670 sq ft)
Slope: almost flat within the building zone
Site coverage ratio: 0.3
Floor area ratio: 2 (number of full floors as the maximum)
Building zone, building line and boundary: see images
Edge development: none
Number of parking spaces: 2
Number of floors: 2 (number of full floors as the maximum)
Roof shape: SD & WD 22°–38° / staggered PD 15°–19°
Architectural style: modern, I would say
Orientation: main ridge direction east-west
Maximum heights/limits: FH 745.3 , TH 742.15
Other requirements
Client Requirements
Style, roof shape, building type: We are open, so far we like the idea with a children’s room in the attic.
Basement, floors: 2 full floors, basement not included in the budget.
Number of people, ages: 4 persons, 34, 31, 3, 1
Space needs on ground floor: We would like a playroom (guest room) on the ground floor. First floor: child 1’s room would be an office (see images), 2 children’s bedrooms, 1 master bedroom
Office: family use or home office? Home office on the first floor
Number of guests per year: about 1
Modern construction method
Open kitchen with kitchen island
Number of dining seats: one indoors
Fireplace: no, KfW 300
Balcony, roof terrace: –
Garage, carport: double garage
Utility garden, greenhouse
Other wishes/particulars/daily routine, also reasons why certain things should or should not be included
House Design
Planner: architect
What do you particularly like? Why? Living/dining room faces south, kitchen with island
What don’t you like? Why? Utility room width of 1.73 m (5 ft 8 in) seems a bit narrow, hallway 1 m (3 ft 3 in) I am not quite sure about, no covered connection from garage to house
Estimated price according to architect/planner: 600,000
Personal price limit for the house including fixtures: 600,000
Preferred heating system: air-to-water heat pump (KfW 300)
If you have to give up something, which details/extensions
— can you do without: second bathroom on the first floor
— can you not do without: 2 children’s bedrooms and 1 office, double garage
Why is the design like it is now? For example,
Recommendation from the architect, there is only one direct neighbor to the east (privacy). That’s why the garage was placed on the east side and an inner courtyard is created.
What do you think?
The 1.73 m (5 ft 8 in) width of the utility room bothers me. Do you think everything will fit there?
According to DIN 18012, the room width should be at least 1.80 m (6 ft), or am I mistaken?
As a precaution, we have also planned the washing machine on the upper floor.
Is a 1 m (3 ft 3 in) wide hallway sufficient? Are there any specific requirements for hallway width for KfW 300 standards?
Unfortunately, the preliminary design lacks dimensions. I have added them afterwards.
Thank you very much for your support.
Best regards

I actually see the courtyard more as a dining terrace and with the kitchen located there, you could kill two birds with one stone, including a short path from the entrance to the kitchen. Sometimes it also helps to give up a corner on the south side for a better entrance and thus achieve a better overall floor plan.Thanks for your ideas. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to place the kitchen in the southwest and the entrance in the south. Somehow I don’t understand it or it seems to conflict.

That would explain the criticized headroom, because you usually cannot just put a gable roof cap on a single-family villa—or it’s basically a deadly operation.Did I understand that correctly? Deadly operation because of attic height? So, better to choose a hip roof instead?

@Abartig ... the ridge height is listed as 8 m (26 ft) in the plans... ah, now I understand, I had thought it was a typo in the checklist where it said 744.9 and assumed 7.44, okay then, but you can still see the very limited standing height in the gallery area.I had already thought so and was completely confused. So, a different roof? Or fully use the height, there’s still a bit of room to go up. Thanks for the answer.

Unfortunately, I don’t know how to place the kitchen in the southwest and the entrance in the south. Somehow I don’t understand it or it conflicts. Well, actually I’m referring to a completely different design, which might benefit from other conditions.
Finally, regarding the stairs to the attic: they are incorrectly positioned. To function properly, they would need to run along the ridge wall so that the second level can be reached without risk of injury and with full headroom. Access to the courtyard can also be arranged through the hallway. Since you don’t have a traditional front yard, the entrance to the courtyard can be opened up both architecturally and practically.
I would probably rotate the house, with the gable facing south, place the kitchen and dining area at the bottom of the plan, and the living area and garden to the east. The children’s rooms would be on the south side, with the stairs along the ridge wall.
Regarding the narrow hallway, I can contribute the following:
We are also planning a straight staircase and initially planned for a 1m (3.3 ft) hallway. We then measured similar hallways in show homes and tested them thoroughly. That means we grabbed crates of drinks and carried them from the front door to the kitchen, carried a laundry basket up the stairs, and much more.
Now our hallway has a rough construction dimension of 2.26m (7.4 ft); any narrower, and the walls would probably have suffered significantly.
Maybe you also have the opportunity to "test" a hallway in a similar way.

Ultimately, regarding the stairs to the attic: they are incorrectly positioned. To be functional, they should run along the ridge wall so that the second floor can be reached with full headroom, ensuring safe access.

Children’s rooms could be on the south side, and then the stairs along the ridge wall. Unfortunately, the main ridge direction in the zoning plan is west-east.

Unfortunately, the main ridge direction in the development plan is west-east. I thought the western boundary runs north-south. Aligning the house to the western boundary would, in my opinion, help. But it does not comply with the ridge direction specified in the development plan. Too bad. I would submit a preliminary building inquiry in this case.
The lantern is not in the way if you place the garage directly on the boundary.
