Hello,
we now have a plan that is already quite advanced for us. We have been considering for a long time whether to include a basement or not, as well as whether to use the attic space (see also https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/ausbau-dachgeschoss-bei-walmdach-als-kellerersatz.43148/).
Building Plan / Restrictions
Plot size: 1170 m² (0.29 acres)
Slope: no
Floor area ratio: 0.4
Floor space index: 2
Number of parking spaces: 2 garage + 1 outdoor
Number of floors: 2
Roof type: hipped roof
Style: urban villa
Orientation: southwest
Owner Requirements
Style, roof type, building type: hipped roof urban villa
Basement, floors: trying to do without a basement
Number of occupants, age: 2 adults, 1 child currently
Space needs on ground floor and upper floor: rooms should be a comfortable size without being excessive
Office: family use or home office? both
Guest stays per year: 10-15 times for 2-3 days
Open or closed architecture: open towards the garden
Conservative or modern design: I would say a mix; in any case, the staircase should not be in the living room
Open kitchen, kitchen island: kitchen with pantry, a fully freestanding island is not necessary
Number of dining seats: 6
Fireplace: yes
Balcony, roof terrace: no balcony, terrace with roof cover
Garage, carport: yes, 2 parking spaces plus motorcycle; 1 additional outdoor parking
Other wishes/special features/daily routine, including reasons why something should or should not be included
House Design
Who created the plan: a planner from a construction company
What do you particularly like? Why? We generally like the ground and upper floor because everything we wished for has been implemented
What do you dislike? Why? Placement of building services - perhaps try placing them under the stairs?
Price estimate according to architect/planner: 700k
Personal price limit for the house, including equipment: 800k
Preferred heating system: geothermal
If you have to give up something, which details/extensions
-can you do without: possibly a few square meters; a big question is whether the office/fitness room above the garage makes sense or if a basement would be better
-can’t give up: own master bathroom, laundry room upstairs
Why is the design the way it is now?
We had quite clear ideas based on reviewing standard floor plans. There were some changes and tests (basement yes/no, attic use yes/no).
What makes it, in your opinion, particularly good or bad? Very good implementation of our ideas and budget
What is the most important/basic question about the floor plan summarized in 130 characters?
The approx. 30 m² (320 sq ft) room on the upper floor (office/fitness) and the larger storage room behind the garage are intended as a basement substitute. How do you like this solution with the partial overbuilding of the garage on the upper floor?
Thank you very much for your feedback!

but of course, slanted is not idealSo why not make it 50cm (20 inches) wider and one meter (39 inches) shorter? It would result in a floor plan almost 95% the same, just without the slant.ypg schrieb:

Any other ideas regarding the corner bench/stove/fireplace from today’s questions?

Marvinius25 Dec 2022 22:58I really don’t like the exterior view at the main entrance at all. There is only one large, asymmetrically placed window in the projection that contains the stairwell and the two bathrooms. Don’t you think the two bathrooms will also end up being too dark? Of course, you might not want a large window from the bathroom facing the street, but I would rather place the main entrance and stairwell in that projection. Above the entrance, you could then create an open space, and everything would immediately feel much more spacious, which it should for a house over 200m2 (2150 sq ft).
Otherwise, the ground floor has made great progress regarding the kitchen, living room, and pantry, but it will be too dark due to the roofing. So make sure to have enough openings installed in the ceiling for LED spotlights right from the start...

Although I am a car enthusiast myself and we actually have more than two cars, a double garage would never occur to me.

hanghaus202326 Dec 2022 18:59I quite like it. The front elevation could definitely be refined a bit more.
