Hello everyone,
below you will find our plan. We are looking forward to your feedback.
Development Plan / Restrictions
Plot size: 900 m² (9700 sq ft)
Slope: No
Site coverage ratio: 0.3 or max. 180 m² (1940 sq ft)
Floor area ratio: None
Building setback (building line and boundary): 5 meters (16 ft) each from the street and neighbors
Number of parking spaces: No requirement
Number of floors: 2
Roof type: Gable roof or hipped roof
Maximum heights/limits: Ridge height (TH): 7.5 m (25 ft), Eaves height (OK): 11.50 m (38 ft)
Maximum driveway width: 5 meters (16 ft)
Homeowner Requirements
Style, roof shape, building type: Gable roof
Basement, floors: Basement and 2 full floors
Number and age of occupants: 2 adults, 2 children: 34, 33, 8, 6
Office, family use or home office?: Office will also be used as a guest room
Number of overnight guests per year: 12
Open or closed architecture: Semi-open
Traditional or modern construction: Modern
Open kitchen, kitchen island: Kitchen island
Number of dining seats: 10
Fireplace: Yes
Built-in sound system: No
Balcony, roof terrace: Balcony
Garage, carport: Garage and carport
Utility garden, greenhouse: No
Additional wishes/special features/daily routine, including reasons why certain elements are wanted or not: A children’s bathroom on the upper floor is not necessarily desired. We prefer a utility room on the upper floor because we want to do laundry there.
House Design
Designed by: DIY
What do you especially like? Why?: Own wardrobe; kitchen and dining area (we cook a lot) are not visible from the living room sightline.
What do you not like? Why?: The terrace roof with 2.80 m (9.2 ft) is actually too short.
Budget limit for the house, including features: 750K
Preferred heating system: Geothermal heat
Why was the design created this way?
It is well adapted to the plot conditions (corner lot) and our family’s needs.
What do you think are its biggest strengths or weaknesses?
We think it fits well with our needs (spacious living room and large kitchen, plus a separate wardrobe). Perhaps the master bedroom is not optimal because it might be too tight for two bedside tables, partly due to the chimney.
What is the most important/basic question about the floor plan in 130 characters?
Do you think the floor plan will work well in practice? What improvements would you suggest?
We planned a sliding door to the kitchen but are unsure whether to include a door at all, and if so, what kind. The same question applies to the wardrobe. Would you adjust the window arrangement in the living room?

This is how I quickly planned it. It can definitely be done more efficiently and with fewer tiles on the walls. In the children’s bathroom, a skylight with a sill height of 2.00m (6 ft 7 in). The windows still need to be optimized.
Thank you for your input. Please take a look at our post #56: Originally, we had planned a children’s bathroom, which was the larger one because we wanted to do the laundry there. Currently, we have planned one larger bathroom for everyone, with access from the bedroom, and an additional shower in the guest WC on the ground floor.

Stein202313 May 2023 20:52Question for the group: In theory, it should be possible to design a staircase leading to the attic steeper than the staircase from the ground floor to the first floor, right? The staircase on the ground floor will be a concrete staircase, whereas the one leading to the attic is planned as a wooden or steel staircase.
Background: On the ground floor, we have enough space to build the staircase longer and more comfortably. However, if we replicate this staircase exactly for the attic, there will be space issues due to the sloping roof.
